Yes, a very handy reference. I think KLM might actually be 31" - certainly on the Far East flights using Combi's.
Thanks for taking the trouble to post the info.:)

I think thats shocking that MyTravel only give you 28" even on the long haul flights. Thanks for posting the list.

A couple of A.net pictures illustrating the 32" seat pitch in the economy class section of Aer Lingus A330-200. A very comfortable flight indeed in my opinion, PTV's as well. Shame about the messy passengers ! :p

Have you heard the rumours that those A330s might be disappearing for either Boeing aircraft or new A330 aircraft?

Not really, but I think whatever they replace the Bae 146's with will help to sway their long haul fleet decision :confused:

Thai is actually 34"

Quite a range of seat pitches, I posted this list some months ago (March I think), but the numbers differed very slightly.
