I have just booked a trip to Prague on BA. The outbound flight is in Club Europe (business) class and the return is in Economy, both on a 767. Does anyone have a seat plan and or pictures of the cabin? Also anyone know things like the seat pitch and best seats on these planes? Thanks for any help.

I just realised you are off to Prague and I said Budapest..well either way..find an internet cafe and then you can choose your seats in advance!

Vince,
The difficulty in giving you an answer is that the 767 has a flexible Club Europe/Euro Traveller split. Club can be from 3 rows to 24 rows depending on how big a cabin is needed, and it does vary a lot on the PRG. It would also depend on how many of you are travelling and what your priorities are (window/bulkhead/etc.)
Generally speaking though the Club cabin has a 2/2/2 layout and Traveller 2/3/2.
Personally I wouldn’t bother with bulkhead rows as the legroom there isn’t really any better than in other rows (this is true on all of the shorthaul fleet) and they are next to the galleys on the 767.
In Club if you want a window seat then obviously go for A or K, if you want space then go for D or F as there is a gap between them where the E seat is in Traveller.
In Traveller I would go for the exit row at the 3 doors, 27AB 26DEF 27JK, for legroom. I would avoid the E seat as it is a centre seat (unless there are 3 of you travelling of course), and I would avoid 37 to 40 DEF as they are between wardrobes/toilets/galleys so have no window views at all and tend to be busy areas.
Hope that helps.
1L.

I recommend that you register at BA.com so that you can check in from there. This will allow you to pick your seats, I think check in opens 24 hours in advance for Club and 12 hours in advance for economy. If you can get to an internet cafe in Budapest then you can check in and select your seats for the economy leg…and try and select the seats adjacent to the 3rd exits, these have loads of leg room. For club, do not be fooled into selecting bulkhead seats, these are actually more cramped due to not having room to put your feet under a seat infront.

My return flight from Budapest was on a British Airways 767-300 (G-BZHC) and that was in Economy – all my budget is willing to allow for. I was sat in seat 34J and had an average view, looking towards the right wing.
It was only 6 months ago and I can’t remember much about it! It was certainly very comfortable and I’m sure British Airways seat pitch currently stands at 31″ – but do correct me if I’m wrong.
Have a great trip 🙂

The aircraft is fantastic, but the seats can be extremely cramped sometimes and your ass sometimes gets strained up, like mine did on an AZ 763. :p
