All over their network, TK operate their A333s on many routes. SIN, BKK, JFK, LHR, FRA to name a few. Also they like to play a/c roulette Any particular route in mind?
Added: The following site lets you search by a/c registration and flight number. Very useful for seeing what type of a/c is deployed on which routes. IMHO, worthy of mention in a sticky. Hope it helps...

A330 Questions: KIX/SIN
I have the choice to fly TK to NRT or KIX in J. NRT is on 777 and KIX is on 330. Would the KIX service be the new a330 (lie flat J) or the angled version? I've been on the angled version before to BKK and did not like it very much so would like to avoid.
With regards to SIN-IST service, what is the typical aircraft used on this flight?

not lie-flat to KIX
I just did the IST-KIX flight in business class yesterday.
I guess it was an A330-300 (although safety leaflet is identical for both and therefore gives no hint, flight was announced as 300 - doesn't say much in TK - and interior was totally new - TKs 200s are to my knowledge older).
In spite of many shortcomings in service and entertainment offer, interior and seats were in perfect condition.
I'm a bit confused with the many different business class seats TK offers on long haul, but these seats (all in beige) were definitely NOT lie-flat, although not bad to find some sleep.

Correct, A330-200
Due to the 300 been programmed for my flight and the reading lights under the roofracks being the new style I was rather certain it was a 300. But after having done some research Soy is right: it was TC-JNA, a 200.

Which seats on TK ICN-IST-ICN in C?
Hello, I might fly TK 90/91 from ICN to Europe. I understand that TK is using three diffrent aircraft on this route. (A 343, B 777-300, A 330 ). Acording to all information I can find, only 777 and 330 are equipped with the new full flat seats in C. Does anyone know if the 343 on this sector is also equipped with new seats, and if not, how can I make sure to travel in an aircraft with the new seats? Thanks in advance!
