Korean airline – 777-300er or a330-300
Hello everyone
Would like to know which aircraft to take to go to korea from singapore using korean airline business/prestige class.
777-300er or a330-300 ?
thank you
if you check KEs schedule online, it looks like the 77W is used on both daily evening flights. The A330 is used for their redeye flight which is operated 4x a week

hmm ok, which one is better? hehe
thats a little subjective but in Y, their A330 is 2-4-2 whereas the 77E is 3-3-3. In J, the A330 is 2-2-2 with the old J product. They have 2 different configurations of the 77W. 2-3-2 J on that aircraft is the old J, and 2-2-2 is the new J with staggered seating and direct aisle access for all J pax. in F, the A330 is 6 across but the 77W is 1-2-1. The aircraft with the newer J probably has a newer F as well but I could be wrong.
Personally, if I was in Y, I wouldnt choose the flight based on aircraft. Its only 6 hours – I’d go with whatever time is most convenient for me and pick an aisle seat. If flying J or F, I’d probably try and get on the 77W with the newer configuration. I also wouldnt splurge for F unless you were flying into Seoul from elsewhere on a long flight and was connecting to Singapore.
