Last question - how comfortable are C seats on OZ's A321 for a 4-5 hour sector?
Really appreciate any advice or comments. Thank you.
Little hope of side seats unless you join Asiana club, I'm afraid.
The product is miles better than TG, in my view. Service is excellent, food good and the 777 seats work fine for me at 6 ft 1.
You MAY be able to get side seats at check-in but often they're taken up by single Korean pax who are club members and who can book online.
OTOH it's worth ringing OZ in London to ask about seat assigments- it's worked for me in the past.
I don't think the 321's are refurbished- if not, the seats are golden-oldie with 45 deg recline- I know they're not the best but have slept on them from LHR to ICN in the past. The service should make up for the seats.
If they are refurbd then they're excelent for that duration.
