Looking up that registration on Flightradar24 suggests that plane isn't flying yet.

It's scheduled to start flying passenger flights on the 30th September. It has been reported that QF2 on 30th September shows the new seat map.

I have just put in a dummy booking and it is not coming up with the new seatmap

Well the new seat map is what was reported on another community as showing on searches on Expert Flyer of QF2 on that date.

Subsequent Expert Flyer searches have revealed the new seatmap also showing on additional flights on later dates.

So I think the 30th is very likely, or if not soon afterwards.

There's no guarantees of course so QF may prefer to show the old seatmap rather than disappoint if they need to change things.


Note also that QF2 is the flights from London via Singapore to Sydney. So the flight from Singapore to Sydney departs 1st October.
