Following a recent visit to London Heathrow, the task has been to find all of the British Airways Boeing 777-200ERs that have recently been repainted into Oneworld colours and thankfully that was easily achieved, thanks in no small part to just 3 examples being based at London Heathrow, however there is one more example left to find and that is based from London Gatwick...

The beginning of 2023 saw British Airways completing the refurbishment of their Boeing 777-200ERs fitted with Rolls-Royce engines, this particular fleet having featured rather antiquated interiors with the old Rockwell Collins in-flight entertainment systems still present going into the 2020s! These examples no longer feature 4-class interiors; those fitted with First Class interiors with the crew rest cubicle having since been removed, operating alongside 3-class configured examples which too have since been refurbished.

The youngest 4 Boeing 777-200ERs all reside at London Heathrow and have been configured in a 3-class layout since new back in 2009; these were amongst the last aircraft to have been refurbished which was completed by mid-2023. The refurbishment also saw 3 out of the 4 examples receiving fresh coats of paint, specifically carrying Oneworld colours which has not appeared on a British Airways aircraft since 2020 following the retirement of their Boeing 747-400 fleet.

Ever since the repainting of the 4 Boeing 777-200ERs into Oneworld colours, British Airways continues the process of repainting their existing fleet, especially aircraft that haven't received a repaint for well over a decade which includes a number of Boeing 777s. In terms of aircraft receiving Oneworld colours, for the first time will see their narrow-body jets receive such colours with the first Airbus A320 having returned back following repainting.

Currently, British Airways operates 59 Boeing 777s, which includes 43 Boing 777-200ERs and 16 Boeing 777-300ERs. British Airways have 18 Boeing 777-9s on-order.

Yankee Mike Mike Romeo is one of 43 Boeing 777-200ERs operated by British Airways, delivered new to the flag-carrier on lease from Yamasa Aircraft Leasing on 23rd March 2009 and she is powered by 2 Rolls-Royce Trent 895 engines. She has carried Oneworld colours since December 2022.

UPDATE (March 2017) - JA8913 was delivered new to JAL on April 30, 1998. It would be withdrawn from JAL service in July 2010. Wells Fargo Bank Northwest (WFBN) would then take possession of the aircraft, now registered as N913UN, and send it to Griffiss International Airport (RME / KRME) in Rome, New York for refitting prior to re-entering airline service with Transaero Airlines (Трансаэро) as EI-XLB in December 2010. The aircraft would be operated by Transaero until withdrawn from service in January 2015. Transaero ceased operations in December 2015. It appears the aircraft has been stored (and salvaged for parts and engines) at Domodedovo International Airport (DME / UUDD), Moscow since.
