Do I understand correctly that Brussel airlines are refitting their birds to LX style Business class and Austrian airlines is tarting as well? Sweet. I never really looked into those carriers, but now...All the alternatives to LH popping up.

How Do You Book SN Business Class ?
Hi all,
I have been trying to book SN Business Class online for the past 2 weeks, but the www.brusselsairlines.com site in all browsers will only display the "Lowest Fare Available" function.
I thought it could be a cookie on my computer but I get the same result on other platforms. Would such a flaw remain un-noticed and unresolved for such a long time ?

LH-usa.com shows it if you select 'LH Group' in the search mask... as you know it only shows Z not P fares in business though

When I checked OO-SFW's movement via Fligthaware, I noticed that the bird is flying Western African routes only (ABJ, CKY, DLA, DKR, FNA, LFW). Any reason why it does not rotate with Central/East African routes?

Which routes are the refitted 330's flying? I am flying NBO to BRU in October. Any chance I'll get the new one?

Finally! I always felt cheated when I had to fly OO-SFV's business class. So is it safe to assume that all 333 have either full flat or angled flat seats?

Full flat on all new and retrofitted aircraft, they only have 7 A330s:

OO-SFM, -SFW, -SFV are done, the rest are due this year.

I will be flying to Lome in October (which I believe is a 332 so probably the old config) and Luanda the same month as well (which is a 333 and am hoping it is the new config).
On another note, does economy on the 332 have AVOD?

i see that SN have the same seats as SR
although the upholstery looks much more sexy in SR (but in reality its ugly plastic -a wood imitation)

Are certain destinations always guaranteed the newest full flat? I know that JFK is...but now that more are being retrofitted, I was wondering if SN is promoting the service on exclusive routes.

Anyone has an idea whether ABJ already regularly gets the new C?

ABJ is indeed one of the destinations that regularly recieves one of the new cabins.
DLA/NSI is also most of the time a retrofitted a/c.
At the moment there are still only 3 a/c finished, during the busy summer months all 7 a/c will keep flying, but starting October the other 2 A333's will go to MLA for their heavy maintenance and retrofit, with the 2 A332's as last.
