That is A330-300. I need A340-300 (you know, the -300 variant of the world's longest plane? ).

Seatguru does not have the A340-300.

No definitive info on it anywhere, other than the MU Italy site, but that is about the 3 class A340-300, not 2 class one.
There are things about 3-class A340-300, such as also this for example:
http://seatexpert.com/seatmap/120/Ch...(Three_class)/
Business Class 28 38-42" 23.0"
- Notes: Up to 135-degree recline
which does not look good.

But no info on the 2 class. Is it that the 2 class one gets the 3 class config's "first" seats and those are there treated as business?
Cabin # Seats Pitch Width
First Class 12 62.0" 28.0"
- Notes: With 165-degree

http://en.flychinaeastern.com/muovc/...nA340-300.html
also only shows the 3-class A340-300, but even with that no info on seat recline or pitch. Yet, they must have an A340-300 2 class (likely loaded with more seats to fit more pax in on this always sold out route), as on this route they only sell economy and business, no premium economy (as the "business" seats are sold on A340-300 FCO-PVG), and no first.

Sigh.. No answer to that anywhere.
