As a gold Velocity member who frequents the SYD/MEL-PER route, every time I book and then when I board the plane, I get a pang of anxiety just in case I'm confronted with an old EK 330. While the J product may be acceptable (the IFE isn't), it's another story in economy. The shocking seats make a wall at the head rest, so I can't see through the seats ahead of me. It's the only time I've ever sufferd claustrophobia.
Not to mention the seats are very uncomfortable and the terrible IFE. Please Velocity, let the powers to be that a refurb, putting in the same seats and IFE as the new 330s would be so welcome! Your coast to coast product is so solid, except for the EK planes.
