5 of us Flying from Manchester in may in Premium Economy to Orlando.

Have pre booked seats 18 A C & D and 19 A & C - I know that in previous years Air Atlanta have operated this service - but these seat numbers do not match up with the seating plans on this site for the 747 -200's they use - have they been reconfigured or is another aircraft going to be operating this route ?

That is strange, the seats you specify would indicate seats on one of the 300 Airbuses. Air Atlanta don't operate any airbuses....

So either I've missed something and VS is now using one of its own old Airbuses to serve the route

or

The wrong plane is allocated to the route

or something else! :)

Thanks,
Richard

Yes I agree - when I was in PE on the Manchester flight I was in seat 8H which was very near to the front in the nose cone on the 747-200.

Maybe this is a Winter aircraft change as the MAN-MCO flights operate all year now.

Why are the Manchester flights always shrouded in mystery?

There's so little info wherever you look - and the info you do find is nearly always contradictory.

Row 1-4 is upstairs Club Orlando
Row 5-10 downstairs Club Orlando
Row 11-22 P.E
Row 23 onwards is economy
