Flight to Copenhagen
Can I check what is the Business Class seating arrangement for the flights to and from Copenhagen? Specifically:
TG 410 and TG 950
TG 951 and TG 403
Is it a 777-300 or 777-300ER? Are the seats with aisle access or arranged 2 in a row? Especially for the flight from Bangkok to Copenhagen and back (the long sector)?
How would you compare this with Emirates, for those who have flown that?
Thanks!

AFAIK TG 950/951 are always the 77W which has the new business class seat.
I can't compare to EK because I have never flow them but I have flown the new TG C seat and really liked it a lot. I hear EK can be hit or miss in C, also on EK you'll be second fiddle to the F passengers where on TG you'll be to top of the heap and receive the best the flight has to offer.

TG950/951 I can confirm what Madone59 is telling. staggered 1-2-1. fullflat. EF seats only recommended for couples
TG403/410 from/to SIN usually 777-300 with 2-3-2 angle flat and occasionally a 77w or a 744 (the latter has also angle flat seats)

Thanks for the advice.
Can someone booking Business on Thai for the first time (I have Star Alliance Gold) choose the seats online? Are the window seats very popular and unavailable?
Some said the seats on Thai are rather narrow. Would that be correct?

Window seat popularity depends on the person, and a bit about the route and aircraft type.
Seat size is always subjective - I have no issues with THAI Business class seats.
Try not to worry too much!

I don't find them narrow. Probably depends on how big you are. It's a comfortable seat, one of the better business class products out there.

I think the new C seats are the best yet for TG. At 6'2" I can fit on the lie flat seat. My legs are effectively in a tunnel beside the passenger in front. This is fine if sleeping on my back or tummy. However, I tend to sleep on my side and find the seat width too narrow for me to bend my knees.

there are not many C seats more comfortable than this one; after flying for decades long haul in C on angle flat seats, I am pretty happy with those!
