Question AI380
Guys - Any one knows what's the seat map for AI 380 on J from DEL - SIN?

Am at DEL Airport now and I forgot to check with ground staff on the aircraft type..

Seat selection on AI web looked like an A319..

I hope its the A330.. the A319 is kind of crappy. Will find out soon in an hour or so.

I have KVS Diamond and it shows up as EQV - Variable Aircraft Type..

Seatguru doesn't help as both A319 and A330 are shown.

Thanks though. Hope to enjoy the 5hr flight into SIN and earning SQ miles in the process of doing so

Business class on all Airbus 330 (both 200 and 300) is 2-2-2 in business class.
The cabin is split into two by the galley and a door. It's not wide enough to have 2-3-2 seating.

I had the same initial reaction.

Unfortunately, it was the A319 guys.

Total of 8 Business class seats in 2-2 configuration (A, C, D, F)

Well, i hope the change comes soon!

Using an A333 or 332 on that route is quite unusual.

That's what I thought as well.. But I had read online about AI upgrading its fleet on this route and since KVS showed a Variable Aircraft Type, I was hopeful..

Either way, I had fun for the price I had paid

There is no such thing to get A380. Actually, it's only A332 & 777 aircraft, too.
