SriLankan 330s - Different Seat Layouts?

Hi all,

when checking my seat reservations for my next trip with UL, I have found something strange:

one of my flights is on an A330, and I am sitting in row 42, chosen via the seat reservation tool of UL homepage. When I look at the fleet information of the UL homepage, there is no row 42 in none of both A330 seat configurations of UL aircraft. Seatmaestro shows the same. Does anybody know what is the reason?

Another strange thing:

When checking my itenerary on checkmytrip.com, none of my seat reservations show up, also the equipment varies from the equipment shown on the UL homepage:

checkmytrip says flights 1-4 are 340/330/340/330, while the UL homepage says flights 1-4 are 340/330/340/340.

Any ideas why there is this difference?


Thanks a lot for any thoughts and information!


Alex

edit: another strange thing I want to add: I am sitting in row 42 J, supposed to be a window seat. According to the seat layouts there even is no J seats...

?

Thanks for that.

Cool, so that probably means I will be on that plane for sure....


Now only one mystery remaining, see above point 2. Why the differences between checkmytrip and UL homepage? Even more strange: when looking for a new booking choosing the exact same flight dates and times, the UL homepage does coincide with checkmytrip (340/330/340/330), but in contradiction to this the seat reservation I can do are for 340/330/340/340...

very strange...

I am not sure, but I guess 4R-ALH as well (ex Yemenia/Livingston Energy).

Same applies for the A340 (2x ex AirLib and 1x ex Cathay Pacific).

I believe they are refurbishing their whole A330 fleet currently and should be done mid year.
