Weird Plane Seat Plan
So we are travelling Club Europe in September to Athens and when I went to select seats I've found a really strange plane plan I can't see anywhere. Does anyone know how this configuration works? I've attached a view of it

I can't see any picture. But I'll bet this thread has your answer: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/briti...-osl-a321.html

It is a mid-haul A321. A few are appearing on the OSL route.

Makes sense - we too are flying to Athens in September and had this configuration on our return leg. Gold line lady thought the 'missing' seats were just blocked out for the time being.
Will make quite a nice flight home after will have been a boozey 4 day wedding..!

Bear in mind that some of the mid-haul A321 are getting converted to normal CE so with it being so far ahead you may find your config changes to normal CE by September. It may stick though so you may be lucky.

I had assumed that too but then couldn't think why you would block out 2 seats around the single seat side it just seemed strange. Very excited now as this is my sisters 40th birthday treat so should be nice. Just wish the Nice flight had the same plane on the way back (going on a cruise between the two)

I get them occasionally from BRU to LHR which is kind of fun and strange. The captain last week actually noted the mid-haul config and hoped we were taking best advantage of it. I was because in my usual bulkhead position I could stretch out: wooohooo.
