I do not have any contradicting evidence, but the AY095/096 pair is scheduled for the 32 C-seat version throughout the upcoming winter while other A330 routes (like JFK) have the old config planes scheduled. BKK is also mainly a leisure destination, so the reason while one of the flights is always on a new config A330 might not be the better J product, but the higher number of Y seats. So I think (and actually hope, since I am to fly that route and would like to upgrade to C
) that if you take the second BKK pair then you will have a good chance of getting a flat bed.
You're probably correct, the A330 on BKK route is the one with most Y-seats, so if you choose A330 on BKK, you have good chances on flat beds, meaning also probably that on all other routes it's more seldom. Having randomly checked some destination other than BKK, I only see A330-300 and A340.
Are the 32 flat J-seat A330's (AY has 3 of them) always A330, what about the one with 42 flat J-seat A330's, is that A330-300 or A330?
