January 26, 200422 yr I'm booking a trip in May on board an Airbus A310-300. I'm getting 2 different seating plans, from 2 sources.Air Transat's Website shows the A310-300 as seating 3-3-3 in the main portion of the aircraft, Airbus's site shows it to be 2-4-2.Which is it? There are 4 of us, and I'd just like to get a head start on how we plan to sit on the aircraft, ahead of time.Thanks to anyone who knows.
January 26, 200422 yr Every airline has its own seating arrangements. So, if Air Transat says their A310 has 3-3-3 and you're flying with them, then your A310 will most likely have 3-3-3. Airbus only recommends seating arrangements, but it's up to the specific carriers to make their own layout.Sincerely,
January 27, 200422 yr Although it's likely this topic could be moved to Hangar Chat, I thought I'd comment and add something a bit MSFS related. When Harald Nehring released his A310, I took some interest in it. I had flown in one myself years before, and pulled up pics at airliners.net and enjoyed looking at cabin pics... All the pics w/Air Transat showed their aircraft with the high density 3-3-3 layout (a layout I hate). Probably keeps the flights cheaper as the 3-3-3 layout allows airlines 9 seats per row vs. the 2-4-2 layout...When I book overseas flights, I factor in the aircraft used into my decision regarding the airline I choose. I usually prefer a 767 when I can find it on a route....-John
