SYD to ICN - New biz class?
Hi All
Just wondering if I will get the new biz class on 29 March SYD ICN returning on 1 April?
How can I find out about the seat maps? I tried to do a dummy booking but it timed out....
Any info would be appreciated!
thanks

Over the past 2 years, I've flown 6 return trips to Seoul with OZ, so 12 flights in total.
Of them, the business seats were in only 2 of the flights...once on the SYD-ICN leg and the other one from ICN-SYD. It seems that every now and again, the new business seat 777 is used for SYD-ICN, but I think that's more because of equipment change rather than planned provision of the new seats.
I have another trip lined up for October, but looks like I'm on the A330, so not the new business seat

It's not possible to 'predict' the type of seat you will be getting, one way of testing it is to try to select your seats using the OZ Website seat selection tool. Have you tried that?

Currently, the only way you would get the new OZ Q seats is if there is a last minute aircraft change. The aircraft normally "scheduled" is old biz, with no AVOD.
