Is there a seat map for TK new B777-300ER with two class configuration? I am flying to HKG in April 15th and I read somewhere in this forum that they change the current version of plane to this new 2 class version without CC 13th of April.

Hi there - I'm flying TK33 IST-IAH on 3/11/15, business on UA award. Originally DH and I were assigned 4A and 5B. I called Turkish and got us together on 6A and 6B. However, I'm thoroughly confused. None of the seat maps for 777 on any website show business in row 6. The rep said that business was in row 1-7 (granted, he also said that the aircraft was an Airbus 777...).

Does anyone have a link to a correct seat map for this flight? I'm more concerned if it is truly lie flat or not. We splurged on extra miles for business on this segment as I heard great reviews about Turkish's business long haul product.

Any peace of mind is appreciated. Thank you.

TK84/85 to from Manila (MNL) shows as an a340-311. Would business class have lie flat or angled on that flight?

Thanks in advance

Unfortunately, old-style angled seats on A340 that don’t go fully flat.

Thats a pity, that new route is priced very reasonably.

What sort of aircraft is a "73J"? TK612 from IST-EBB (Entebbe) in biz class is showing a 73J. Turkish airlines' website shows three different 737 aircraft, so I'm not sure which one this is talking about....Thanks.

Just want to add data point

May 2015 IST-ORD is listed as 77B (7 rows of Business class instead of 4 rows)

Funny how TK doesn't even list 77B on its own website (only the 77W Seat map)

I'm trying to decide between booking KIX or NRT, would prefer KIX.

Does the difference between a 332 and 333 make any difference in economy? I could probably get an exit seat on both.

Not a big difference in Y. Almost same seats. So I would fly to KIX if I were you.

Has anyone seen this a330 seatmap before?

TK 651, IST-ALG, May 19, J Class. Online shows Plane 330-200, Plane Model 33A with Biz of 2/2/2 in rows 4-10. Can't find this seatmap anywhere else. I'd assume it's an older J product I'm a little worried if plane is swapped with another 330 that people will be downgraded to Y. Thoughts?

Sorry.. found this after I posted...
