And on that particular route LHR-JFK, we can bet it was -400s?.. One of 4th daily a350-1000 flights from LHR to JFK was earlier operated by 787-9: Remaining 3 probably earlier operated by a340-600.

ALMOST FOR THE A350-1000!! British Airways 747-400 sets subsonic speed record for Atlantic crossing By Max Kingsley-Jones10 February 2020 www.flightglobal.com/airlines/british-airways-747-400-sets-subsonic-speed-record-for-atlantic-crossing/136625.articleA British Airways Boeing 747-400 benefited from the powerful transatlantic jetstream created by Storm Ciara to set a new subsonic speed record for a New York-London flight. The 22-year-old 747 (G-CIVP), operating flight BA112 on 8/9 February, completed the sector from New York John F Kennedy airport to London Heathrow in 4h 56min, according to tracking service Flightradar 24 (below). This sector time was some 1h 20min faster than scheduled for the route. ...The powerful jetstream resulted in a number of fast flights on 8/9 February. A Virgin Atlantic Airbus A350-1000 (G-VPOP) was only 1min slower than the BA 747-400, operating flight VS4. However, the airline pointed out that while it was “narrowly beaten”, the 747 had “twice the [number] of engines and burnt twice as much fuel” as the A350 twinjet.

Under current circumstances, not a surprise pilot union will agree
Now let's wait until the end of year for actual order
