New (less-than-desirable) seats and A332 config?

[shuuy]

So I fly quite a bit SYD/BNE-PER.


There have been far fewer flights with skybed (notably the 6am SYD-PER). And on a PER-BNE the other day I saw the 767 seat, the Q-streaming, and this layout

(If you want the unlimited legroom seat, pick 2D, and 1D is gone, replaced by 1E)


I hope they're doing this because they're starting to refurb planes for the new domestic J... And they didn't get new 332s? Why did they put these less-than-ideal seats in? Where did the old ones go?

These planes also have monitors for the IFE, so they have to be new to the fleet?

They are the old QF birds coming home from JQ

"the 767 seat, the Q-streaming"

I was on the fight from BNE to PER on Monday. Q-Steaming wasn't working. CSM told me these are old Jetstar planes, and the weren't quite up to Q standards yet. 2D is a good seat, but you do stick out a bit into the aisle.

Yep, the old QF-JQ config.

The product is no different to what is being retired from the 767's really apart from the layout (yes I am aware the 332's do have 2-3-2, whilst the 767's are 2-2-2)
