Finally after many years I got the possibility to try out the 'new' C seat on A343 LX188. With high expectations I boarded the plane and I was seated in a K seat close to the window.
Seriously, what is so special about this horizontal flat bed seat? It was impossible to find a good sleeping position so I simply tilted the seat so it was angled like LH (old C) and SK C seats. After that I slept like a baby. Furthermore, it was really narrow and even though I lowered the armrest it did not make things much better. I'm average in height, weight, and body form.
Isn't it anyone else who think that the 'new' C seat is overrated?
The only seat I have slept really good in ever is the LX F bed.
I would personally rank the angled more spacious old LH C seat much higher than the 'new' LX C seat. The only positive about it was the good storage areas.
