Swiss Airbus 330-200 questions
Hello,
Long-time listener, first-time caller (oh, right, this isn't talk radio). We are likely to take Swiss Flt 6201 from ORD to ZRH. Having never flown Swiss, I have a few seating questions:
1. Which Coach seats offer the most legroom and overall comfort They indicate a 31" pitch, which is tight, so I wondered if bulkhead seats in rows 22 or 27 were better.
2. Which seats to absolutely avoid?
3 Do bulkhead seats in rows 22 & 27 have cutouts in the divider for storage?
4. Middle section of Row 22 has only 3 seats, while other rows have 4. This leaves an apparent extra stretching room for the person in 23F. Can anyone confirm that and indicate whether this is a good row to consider?
Thanks from long legged travelers everywhere!

I too have seen LX A330 economy seat pitch listed as 32" in some other tables.
There is a side-on view of a couple of rows of economy seats taken in an ex-LX A330 now leased by LH (I believe they did not change the Y cabin config.) on either airliners.net or jetphotos.net
(search under A330, Lufthansa, cabin view)
Maybe that would give you a better idea what to expect (in case you do not succeed on getting exit row seats).
I myself am actually wondering about the Y seating on the MD-11. Will be flying LX longhaul for the first time in June (ex-SIN).
