Jet Airways BOM-SIN seat configuration

Hi,

I have an upcoming flight on Jet Airways, BOM-SIN. Is there anyway to know before hand if it still has their old purple/brown themed herringbone structured business class or the new all brown forward facing business class.. my upgrade decision is dependent on that..

I saw the seat configuration on seat guru and tried cross referencing with the aircraft type, but there is still a big grey area, so can't be sure of the structure. My best guess is that it's a A333 and has the new business class, but I want to be really sure..

If I remember correctly, its a A332 with 1-1-1 config in business class. Herringbone seats. This is from 6 months back but even now its a 1-1-1 config.

Thanks guys.. that's help me with the upgrade decision..!! My confusion was because of the seats numbers they were showing, it looked like an A333 and that was showing on seatguru with the new structure, not the 1-1-1 herringbone one..

Actually, I just popped over to KVS Tool and there are 2 9W daily flights BOM-SIN and they are different configurations each.

9W 12 red-eye shows this seat config:




while 9W 10, the daytime flight shows this one:



So it seems like it depends on what flight you are taking..

I called but they couldnt confirm.. I tried experflyer, and it is showing the 1-1-1 herringbone aircraft.. so I guess I will only find out when I am at the airport !

9W12 is definitely the A332 with the herringbone config, flew it a few months ago.

From Flightradar info, it seems 9W10 is mostly 332 with the occasional 333 thrown in, so very likely you should have the herringbone config.
