Qr Kiev, kbp-hkt 1371 / kbp-sgn 1385
Not an earth shattering deal but still represents good value when you consider that it is not a usually cheap fare departing city.
Books into R class
KBP-HKT J QR 1371
Mix of A320,777, all lie flat.
Books into I class
KBP-SGN J QR 1385
Mix of A320,787,A330 all lie flat.
EDIT: Apologies about the title but Flyertalk is extremely bug riddled on my iPhone 6s iOS 11, In both desktop and mobile mode.
It has a mind of its own it seems?

KPB=Kiev
Nice the OP went to trouble of providing the maps 'n all, but it's really helpful to spell out "less well-known" cities/airports by name in the thread title.
Kiev represents just one extra keystroke over KPB.
and, yes, I know we're talking Boryspil (UKBB) rather Zhuliany (UKKK). But that detail becomes clear in the the thread text.

One misplaced keystroke, KPB is actually Point Baker Seaplane Base located in Point Baker, a community in the Prince of Wales-Hyder Census Area of the U.S. state of Alaska.
KBP is Kiev Boryspil International Airport if anyone is wondering.

It is indeed!
I hadn't noticed you'd actually got the wrong code in the title of your original post*, and sorry I carelessly incorporated your mistake into my reply.
One more reason for using place names, rather than unfamiliar codes
* are you able to correct that - or is that the preserve of Mods?

i cant correct it unfortunately, its a bug when using my iPhone to post on Flyertalk, I find i very difficult to post or edit, screen resolutions ssues, cursor placement issues and for some reason capitals get funked up in my thread titles?
In the last image under my edit of my the original post you can see the Thread tile both correct and incorrect?
Just trying to reply now and my screen went like this:
Very frustrating, Im traveling so have no access to computer :-(

HKT on the other hand, I think for some may be harder to place (although appears to be becoming more recognised with the increase in long-haul flights).
Only Mods can change thread titles after the first few minutes grace.

I'd argue KBP is a well-known airport; it's a major hub for Ukraine Airlines and it's the capital city.

Maybe it's my Asian > Europe bias, though. Can at least use the "KGB" thing to remember what KBP is now. Yes, I know Ukraine is not Russia.
