Bulk head row with no leg bar. You get those hard cushion things to rest your feet on which are stored in the over-heads directly over those seats (taking up most of the space in them too) until after the seat belt sign comes off.

Meals served first as PE meals now come from the J galley in front of the PE cabin.

Tell them to enjoy it!!!

I'm guessing you mean the new PE layout as opposed to the new PE seats (which unless you know the actual a/c in advance of your flight, it is still abt 50/50 as to whether you get the new seats or not)?.

Row 18 in Config 2 on the A346 is exactly the same as the old PE layout, its a bulkhead with 2 windows and is my preferred row in PE. If you look in the Seat ratingssection and select A346 Old config then the ratings given here should work for the new config also.

Hi Neil, rang clubhouse concierge they said it was new pe. Tried seat ratings but seemed invalid. Thanks for the replies. Does it mean they get no leg rest?

None of the new PE seats have a leg rest. They just have a foot bar which can be lowered into 2 different positions from the seat in front. The bullk heads have the seperate hard cushions things I mentioned above.

Not many people used them on the flight I was on, probably as they didnt know they were there or if they did see them in the overheads, they didnt know what they where for.

The VS603 will be operating using G-VFOX tonight, so yes it is the new PE
