I hate the old style biz class they use on some routes but charge the same price for new style. I just booked a round trip which takes me from Taiwan to Japan, then to Malaysia then to Australia all with other carriers as I cant risk flying in their old seats.

Today I need to go to UK this Sunday, I am DM but cannot be bothered with seat guarantee as it never works so I booked CX to HKG and BA biz class to LHR. ( no seats available with CX )

If they dont make it easier to make sure you can book and get what you pay for then I guess people like me will simply place the $$ with others.

The price difference between BA and CX in biz is huge but I dont care and frankly BA biz is way superior to CX as I dont need food and champagne I need sleep and no in flight announcements
