Airbus A33A with 7 rows Business Class starting at Row 4?

I checked flights from IST to Malaga AGP, showing me this seatmap for the TK1305. I cannot find any seatmap similiar to this, any ideas which aircraft this could be? New business class or old?

This is one of the A330s leased from TAM.

Right. At check-in, try to secure row 1: these are TAM's first class seats.

I assumed that only the 777 had the F seats but the 1-2-1 layout indicates F.
We once managed to secure the F seats on TAM SCL-GRU and they were incredible. The FA told us that they'll ferry the 777s to Singapore for seat upgrades/changes this summer, though.

Former first class seats, as TAM no longer sells F.

Just realized I'm on one of these birds AUH-IST in early January.

Row 1 looks occupied on EF and on TK.com. Are these taken or does TK only open them 24 hours out? Can the seats be selected online during checkin or do I have to call??

Thanks.

I had one of these via equipment swap. Was able to select seat during online checkin - was only passenger in row 1. Very nice for sleeping (with curtain for privacy etc).
