Ofcourse with TK you never know what you get until you actually board but it seems quite consistent now and expertflyer seat map have also changed from A340-300 to A330-300.

This would mean new business class seats for my trip for mid Feb!
Well, from hardware point of view, things went pretty well.

From ARN-IST I got the new A321 with proper business seats (4 rows of 2 by 2) although I think they did not recline quite as much as the same/similar seating in their Boeing...

For IST-BKK it was A330-300 with new flat J (TK64) which was totally full. Our gate exit was actually delayed while they checked two passengers for the tickets since they were seated where Captain? had planned to rest (maybe last minute upgrades). At the end this Captain? picked his gear off from there and passenger was allowed to stay there.

Since it was full J class, food service took ages and I asked main course to be given separately as I wanted to go to sleep.
