Just noticed my PER/BKK bookings changed seatings, and can see they have swapped out their 787's for their A350's for this route in Dec....presumably more J seats...not sure if this is better or not but will find out soon enough....

Flew this route on the 787 last month in Y. Outbound would have been about 90% full and to PER J was full and Y had a handful of free seats. A350 should be an improvement in Y with a slightly wider cabin given it's still 3-3-3 seating.

Business certainly much better too, going from 2-2-2 seating to 1-2-1.

Very good point! I remember walking through J and saying to MrsDaver6 how poor the J product looked. That I felt like I was walking back into the 1990s.
