Do they not have the little + symbols in the brochures anymore when the flight is operated by a 767srs?
Jump to postGreat news that someone has finally got the ball rolling...and nice to see the research coming from my department at Loughborough Uni!

Jump to postIn the air to air picture the aircraft looks more like a 767. Great report however!
Jump to postI have just returned from Barbados, and travelled First on the outbound flight and Club on the inbound, so I can make a fairly good comparison.

Jump to postI flew into LHR on Friday and am also yet to see any of my bags!
Jump to postI was there for a couple of hours today, and everything seemed completely normal.
Jump to postRd, just dont sit in the middle, two crew start from the front and the other from the rear. So sitting right at the front or at the rear will be a safe bet.

Thanks for the replies so far, I have been contemplating 15 A or K due to the unrestricted aisle access as I am travelling on my own, however am slightly put off by the window and noise situation.

Jump to postTry and get a seat close to the front, they have an extra 3" of legroom. On the Airbus, no need to worry about missing windows cause there arent any. On the Boeing its a different matter! Although you should be ok if you get a seat between doors 1 and 2 or between doors 3 and 4.
