Oliver, what is the F basis in this case?
I've been waiting for this direct link for ages as it cuts out one connection in my case. Even when travelling onwards to Australia I can get the job done with just two flights now, something that would have previously required me to fly with the likes of EK (err... no thanks!).
Haven't heard good things about the C seat though, but I haven't tried it out myself yet (only been in C on JL's 787 so far).
