Background to this thread:

In a similar vein to the "Flight Availability / Upgrade Probability Help Desk" there has an increase in the posting of questions about specific seat allocation/availability on a flight. These are all valid questions and we all appreciate the efforts our members go to to provide answers.

The only drawback is that our forums can become "cluttered" with such queries. This tends to reduce the overall usability of our site.

This new consolidated thread is where you can ask questions about seating allocation/availability. Hopefully, this will reduce clutter and improve usability.

Guidelines for posting in this thread:

Please post questions about availability of specific seats in this new consolidated thread. Be sure to include the airline, flight number, Origin, Destination, date and cabin as applicable.

When answering questions, please include the original question. This will assist in readability and management of the thread.

Yeah, they match pretty much to the T.

However I had no idea if a PPS or higher had taken the bulkheads already, as on the MMB seat map it just shows up as occupied as do the other actually occupied ones.

Really really keen to snag the bulkhead ones at least for SQ24, the longest flight in the world does deserve some decent leg space!!

Will post back here around 5 days prior to departure to ensure that those are still "blocked" not occupied so can work out the chances of actually getting them at T-96.
Bulkheads are the way to go! But not much we can do… they’re either taken, or not! lol. I’d say i manage to get them on around 4 out of every 5 flights. There’s quite a few bulkheads depending on the aircraft and layout.

100%. Just have to roll the dice at T-96 and hope for the best 😃
 
Apologies but I've forgotten if theres a generic seat map thread.

TR605/SQ8613 BKK-SIN is an A320. I'm trying to figure out if row 1 is bulkhead. Looks to be bulkhead with the exit row in the galley behind the coughpit.

Costs THB760 and as I will need seatbelt extension needs not to be exit row. I want the seat as there's no one in front of me which should help guard against claustrophobia kicking in.

Looks to be a divider.
 
Thanks @OATEK but the flight I am on is an A320 and goes back to row 30 but again that divider is there and does not look to be an exit row.

I just picked a random date and it was the Neo for TR605. If you do a search on Youtube there are a few trip reports that show the dividers in various Scoot A320 flights.

I looked on Scoot Manage my Booking and went to select seat and only goes back to row 30. Confusing.

Its a shame that we can't check the seats on EF, but they seem to have 2 variations of A320neo, one with 31 rows, and this one with 30:


If its an older A320, then who knows. But a quick sqizz at online reviews is likely your best bet. with some showing a curtain and others a light weight divider.
