Mattress availability in business
 
I have flown a number of J night flights between Dubai and Bangkok (and return) and have never been offered a mattress. Is there a minimum number flight hours before they are offered or do I need to ask.

Just have a look in the over head bins, they will be knocking about somewhere. I always grab my own (two) after take off. Quicker than waiting for the crew and gives them one less job to do.

Rows 14, 20 and 23 on the A380... :) Also. these are rows to avoid if you have a lot of hand luggage. Two feels like you're in F!

I often do DXB-BKK too and I'm usually offered one.

If you grab two mattresses does that result in somebody else not having one at all?

Maybe that answers the OPs question...

There is always plenty, they don't carry exact numbers.

Just ask for one, they are available on most flights.
