@ vinayak
its not because they dont like 777's its because of the seniority issue
the 777's of AI are now a money crushing machine of our money(taxpayer's).
they are now planning to phase out these aircraft
So now the 787 guys will top the seniority list (yes,the ones who are selected right now ) and the late 787 pilots will have to wait for their training as there will be no 777 left in AI's future
the same thing happened in IC when a320 got inducted
the senior 310 pilots were under the New A320 captains in seniority because A320 is their main fleet now.
