Chances are 99% you won't retain your PE seat, provided you even have one.

If the flight is operated by a PE equipped bird and PE is not sold on that route, chances that he will keep his PE seat is pretty good (unles there is a last minute equipment change). My last 2 segments were MUC-DXB-MUC, both operated by a 346 with PE (outbound bucket was S, inbound was T), got PE seats confirmed both ways while making the booking. And, most importantly, flew in those PE seats both ways, too.

Well, PE is sold NYC-FRA, but only right now on the 748.

I was surprised as anyone when I saw the seat map.

This has got to be PE, though, no?

Is there any way of finding out how many of the 346 out of Munich have been fitted with PE ?

To my understanding, all 346 aircraft that have the new C also have PE.

Exactly. See wiki in this thread for details.

Lufthansa A380 Seat Question

Hi Guys,

I'm flying from Frankfurt to Houston in June and I had a question about a couple of seats on Lufthansa's A380. I'm trying to decide if I want to pay for a seat with extra legroom, so right now I'm looking at seats 76A and 76K. That being said, my questions are: Do you all think it is worth it to pay the 100$ fee to sit in one of these seats, and secondly, since these seats are on an exit row, do they have a TV?

I appreciate all the help!

TB

Welcome to FT, Tbrad87! I'm moving the thread to the LH forum where you might get more answers.

Seatguru is never the best bet, at least for LH metal. But you are correct.

Worth every penny IMO. You'll have a 10" on-demand TV, but not during takeoff and landing.

+1

If you are flying Y, 76A/K are the best seats in the house: you get a window with aisle access (you have to squeeze past the emergency slide on the door and/or the person sprawling out in 75J, but there is access without asking anyone to move), plus free space for your feet.

If you like to stretch your legs, aisle access without anyone climbing over you, or you are taller than about 180cm, the fee reasonable.

be warned, if you like window seats because of the view, the only thing you will see from 76AK is a few thousands of square metres of airbus wing technology
Other than that I fully agree with N1003U, best Y seats on that plane.

Good point. I have a photo somewhere of the view out the window from 76K. If I find it I will post it...but I think you only see a few hundred square meters of fine airbus wing technology.
