3. Premium Eco passengers who are *G are seated in C cabin
4. The rest of C cabin is filled with premium eco passengers
5. The rest of premium eco got a seat next to them blocked, if possible
6. Regular eco passengers are then seated as spread out as possible.

With 44 more seats in Economy section and 8 seats in F, it was possible to re-seat everybody with reasonable comfort. With either op-up to C or have an empty seat next to them, premium eco passengers should be very comfortable.

Last month I flew MXP BKK and TG used the 340-600. They blocked off the F cabin, and simply had premium eco passengers in the C cabin. The C load was pretty light so there was room to accomodate the premium economy pax.
