Question TAP A330 business class - always flat?

I am flying Lisbon to Salvador in business class on an Airbus 330. November 2014. Hoping it has the full flat seats as promised on the TAP website.
Are all a330's fitted with the lie flat seats? Or are there some older versions flying around. I wrote TAP but they don't reply....
Thanks for the input.

Unhappy Really?

Is that true? In the website is a table with aircraft types indicating the A330 has 180 degrees recline in business class. Are they lying about this on the website?

Don't forget that flat and 180 degree recline can mean different things to different folk. A flat bed can slope (in reference to the cabin floor).

Thanks for the feedback and the trip report.

This is what TAP answered me via Facebook:

Hello Mich,
All our A330 and A340 have been recently renewed and all of them have flat beds min business and AVOD.

This is simply not true. No A330 or A340 has flat beds and only the A340s (CS-TOA, -TOB, -TOC, and -TOD) and the new A330s (CS-TOL, -TOM, -TON, -TOO, TOP, -TOQ, and -TOR) have AVOD.
