First time I've seen them last night and made sure to inspect for jagged edges on my seat and ones adjacent but have to say was all smooth.
The original wooden seats would never get confused for Qatar Airlines business class so I'm thinking the footprint of the new ones must be larger which is causing an issue? Was quite a procedure to allow people by, no much wiggle or any other room.
The spacing was set in early 60's was it when the stand was extended & rebuilt i presume and the average height and waist of the patrons is not decreasing so what to do?
Oh aye it looked like it'd never been wiped at all since wooden ones were removed, needed a right good wipe.
Thinking aisle seat or right down the front next time.
