Status of the new A346 Etihad business class cabin rollout?

[MrMNJ]

Hey Folks,

I'm flying EY MEL-AUH, AUH-JFK in March, on the A345 on 3 out of the 4 sectors.
Can anyone tell me if the J seats are new(brown) or old(green)?

(Not that I can do much about it now, I suppose...)

Also does anyone have any experience of the limo service at JFK/ NYC - namely, should I tip the driver, and if so how much? How about lounge staff for complimentary drinks?

I don't travel to the States much (or travel much at all for that matter), and often feel foolish figuring out who, when and how much to tip.

Thanks aplenty.

Cheers, MrMNJ

No experience of the limo thing - others will be able to chime in on the appropriateness and amount of tip required - but yes, tip for your drinks. A dollar a drink is reasonable.

I have only used the limo service in Aust & our driver certainly wasn't on the lookout for a tip- I am guessing the US will be different!

Thanks guys. I guess if I do somethings socially inept like tip too poorly, I'd better hope I don't get the same driver on the way back
Looking forward to the EY flight anyway.

Cheers, Mr MNJ.
