A330-900neo business best seats

Any thoughts on best seating on the new A330-900neos in business? Are there some seats with wide footwells (e.g. row 1) while others are tight? Any advice appreciated. I couldn't find a discussion here, and Seatguru doesn't even mention that ITA exists.

I'm looking at flying MIA-FCO / FCO-SFO next March. It should all be the new planes by then.

Thanks!

Aerolopa does (although it doesn't guarantee its accuracy it should give you some idea).

And I take it you mean A350-900?

Nope, A330.

The seat map I used to choose a seat is not a match for the A350.

OK. Seatmaps.com has dimensions and layout but not much more.

Seats

I’m wondering this same thing. I have flights from jfk -Fco on November 10th and wondering which plane we will be on. The outbound flight on the ita website lists the a350 and the return says a330 but when I look at the flights to and from New York everyday is says the plane is an a330-900 which I believe is the neo . Let me know what you figure out

The seat map should tell you. My seat keep above is from business class on the new plane. But also, to be fair to ITA, they don't have all the new planes yet, and so if there are delays in delivery then you may get an earlier plane.

Damn yeah I just looked on the reservation and the flight from jfk to Rome says a350-900 which hopefully is one of the new planes but the return flight must be on one of the older planes because it says a330 industrie , was hoping to be one one of the new planes both ways !

The 330-900 is the new plane. There is a different 330 that is older. That's why you should double check the seat map.

Isn’t the 350-900 also a newer plane ? I read some reviews and thought it was.

So, which route is the A330 Neo flying on these days? I have looked at every route for next July, and they seemingly all show the old A330.

Looks like MIA-FCO is the 330Neo through March, then changes to the old 330 starting in April. Is this just a schedule placeholder?

DEL, JFK, MIA. Although, equipment swap seems very common.

Here is a good representation of the alignment of windows and general cabin.

For privacy row 8 is set back from the others, however you have cabinets the flight attendants access next to you so can be a bit hectic. Didn't look like row 1 had any advantages to footwell size.

I found the footwell tight and the overall seat pretty close to the one in front. For the window seats, there's more room towards the outside of the plane than towards the aisle - such that I could only side sleep on one side (facing the outside of the plane). Only other irritation is the lack of air nozzles, guy in front was unleashing the worst farts and some fresh air was sorely missed. Overall I love the setup though, pretty comfortable. Food was fantastic.
