China Airlines A350 seat Business Class
Dear All,
I'm thinking about booking a rtn trip from LHR - AKL in Business and haven't found an answer to my question.
On Aerolopa I've noticed that there are two types of seats in Business Class on the A350.
Is the newer one, Thompson Vantage XL, going to replace those seats on the other A350s?

There is only 1 that faces forward (SAS). 14+1 reverse herringbone (+1 is 3U's configuration). If you are flying this year then you will be on reverse herringbone.

There are currently 3 359 configurations. No, they are not going to be replaced by Thompason Vantage XL. They just got that one aircraft from SAS and that's SAS's configuration.
