Odd A321 layout

for a trip to Dublin on Friday there's a strange layout showing for the flight



It's an A321 but the exits appear to be at Rows 9 and 20 with the cabin going back to Row 31

Anyone any ideas on this one ... opinions re: Row 9 vs. Row 20 ?

Looks like an ex-bmi aircraft.

Yeah that looks like it .. I thought with the demise of BMI we'd see the end of the use of midhaul a/c on Dublin flights but seemingly not ! .. I'll be keeping a close eye to see if any seats forward of Row 9 open up at OLCI

BA Domestic 767 seating

Been allocated 9K on BA domestic 767 to GLA ex LHR.

Back of the aircraft still looks quite wide open. Any benefits by being near the front on the 767 (allt he rows 1-12 seem to be taken or blocked out anyhow) expect getting off quicker (just to wait for ever as usual at GLA for bags to eventually come off anyhow?

Try to get 1-6 if you can.

In the (un)likely event that a LH aircraft is substituted, you will find an old CW seat complete with AVOD. Last time this happened to me, we were allowed to use it for the 50 minutes or so that seatbelt signs were off. Only if you had your own headphones though.

Also, door 2L is used so if getting off early is important, sit in that area.

Indeed under MMB seat choices have now just opened up a bit more...so have opted for 5a.

Can I jump this thread and ask for opinions on exit rows for extra legroom?

I have a couple of 767 runs and I've not flown on a BA 767 for about 10 years and consequently (unusually) don't know the layout!

In particular what's the consensus on rows 12/27?

Ps I know the mods will merge to the dip in dip out ET/Domestic thread but thought I'd take the opportunity whilst a separate thread existed.

Only row 28 A,B & J,K have "free" leg room. The other exit rows have bulkheads.

I'm in Y on an A319 to DUB - all the information on here and on SeatGuru shows the exit row as row 9 but in MMB row 10 is the exit row. Any ideas?
BA had put us in Row 34 in a virtually empty plane but I've now entered our EC numbers and moved us to row 7 right behind the CE curtain - I'll keep an eye on it in case the curtain moves.

An observation, rather than a query.

Have a Domestic/World Traveller Plus booking in October.
The Domestic leg has booked in to a J selling class, giving seat selection to our all blue level party of 5, which was expected.

All the seats in the A320's both ways were free to chose from, apart from blocked rows 1 to 5, so booked in to 6 AB & 7ABC.

The aircraft on the return leg has now changed to an A321, and rows 1 to 6 are now blocked. (Checked with expertflyer, and they are not occupied) yet we've not been bumped out of our seats despite being blue.

A pleasant change from tales of seat shifting, and curtains moving (yes I know it's domestic and there's no curtain!)

767 ET which seat?

Sorry to be a pain, but I can't work out which variant of the 767, we'll be flying on the 07.00 FCO flight from LHR on Sunday, so I can't see which seats to try for at OLCI.

Thanks, but difficult to work out best legroom seats, from seat plan, so I thought Guru might help.

Well, the internal code being shown on EF is 76B, in case that helps at all.
