Cheers Andrew. Thought it was VPH - newer (different seats) interior compared with the others.

Hi Brad,

Im just curious to what you mean by 'different seats'? I flew VPH in May this year and they are the same as the rest of the fleet in all classes.

I found the seats on some to be like sitting against a brick wall, where as some of the other triplers' have a softer cloth.

Hi Tim,

I've flown on all of the VA 77Ws except for VOZ and found that the seats in VPH both reclined and the seat base slid forward, giving the impression of more recline. The seats in VPD, VPE and VPF didn't do this.

Also, the seat back / tray table / seat pocket design was also subtly different (wish I had taken a pic of it now).

They were definitely different though (and much more comfortable).

Cheers,
Brad

Oh, and obviously, we are talking Economy seats here.

Y+ and J looked the same to me.

Oh ok cool Brad wasn't sure what you were reffering to. I have flown on all except VPD and +Y and J are all the same wasn't sure about Y because I have acctually not flown Y before. Through photos I noticed VPH's seatback is slightly different but not too much. Cheers for clearing it up.

The economy seats on VH-VPD do come from a different seat manufacturer.
