Hi all, I am planning a flight to LAX in February, please can anyone share their UC seat preferences on the A340-600, as well as the seats to be avoided?

cheers :)

I'd go for 3-7K or 8-12A because they face a wall rather than another seat so you get more privacy.

1D is to be avoided as the toilet is immediately behind you. And noise from the bar can be an issue in the back two or three rows.

Thanks gumshoe, is it always a 340-600 on the LAX route?

3,4,5 K.
1D is actually a fairly private seat ( it faces the wardrobe ).My last LA flight saw a big name celeb in the seat ( he was very low key and nobody knew/ noticed him save for me when he came and joined me at the bar :D ). I've been in 1D on an overnight flight on a 600 and would prefer it to 2K ( where you have the queue for the loo right at your feet and hear the sound of the loo flushing...... :(! ).

Having the same kind of question, I'm currently on 4K and 5K, sounds like the good choice then ;)
For the time being it seems that it will stay on A346 for January and February ...

We were in 4/5K a few weeks ago and I always like them. Closer to the front but yet facing a wall. Toilet and bar noise no problem.

Just changed my seats for my flight to/from LA next July from 4A/5A and mixed it up a bit....now 8A/9K out and 4K/5K on the return to get a bit of a different perspective y) Only 240 days to find out how my choices work out!

Do you mean 8A/9A outbound?

I was in 8A on the VS200 last week and liked it - wardrobe opposite and a handy little curtain you can pull across to separate you from 7A should you so desire!

Thanks Gumshoe...Although Mrs P would prefer to be that far away from me :? That curtain sounds ideal!

Just bagged 10A on both legs, thanks for all your help & advice! Ex DUB fare of just £1400 return makes it even sweeter!
