Ditto QF501 this morning - international A333.
Looks like front centre row Skybeds the place to be.
Row 23 in Y - very tight.
45B and 45J the go for international. 45A and 45K OK if you're seated next to the person in the aisle seat, but otherwise would be painful due to the escape slide.
I remain deeply unimpressed by the A330s.
