Default VA Seating?

Hey All,

Booked onto VA1 on the 14th of this month ... Will try and get seat 26A by the exit and seatguru state that it is a good seat, just wondering if the exit door has anything that protrudes into the space, most aircraft have this problem but i cannot seem to see any mention of this with VA.

Anyone know what the loads like on this flight? Cany wait for the experience, heard excellent things about VA.

Hakan

Exit row seats are i think $150 to upgrade for extra leg room.

I stand corrected.

Hakan,

There is nothing in that area, there are crew seats for take off and landing but they are fold away.

Hope you enjoy your VA experience

Haken,

Just be aware on these 777's the arm rests don't raise on the bulkhead or exit rows (in case you were wanting to lay across a row to sleep etc).

As Sarmad has said unless the flight is full & those rows need to be allocated there is a charge of $150 for an exit row (unless you are a gold velocity member) - it can be paid at check-in or in the air to cabin crew by credit card.

The crew seat Martin talks about is well in front of the seats and even when a crew member is sitting in it, there is no way it could cause any issue.
