South African Airways SAA Airbus A340 600 Seating Plan

This South African Airways (SAA) Airbus A340-600 features a two class configuration; with 42 flat bed seats in Business and 275 Economy Class seats, for a total seating capacity of 317 passengers.

The business-class cabin on South African Airways’ A340-600 is comprised of 42 seats in a 2-2-2 configuration.

Each of the flat-bed seats offers 73 inches of pitch and is 23.7 inches wide.

Each seat’s controls were located on the armrest.

There were quite a few options, but all the buttons were easily accessible and easy to use.

There was also a nice massage function, which wasn’t too powerful or erratic.

The amenity kit for each passenger was located in one of two cubbies on the back of the seat in front of you.

There was a shoe cubby at the bottom of the seatback, which was simple and not obtrusive.

Economy class has a generous seat pitch of 33 inches and the seat-belts have padding around them, so they are comfortable once in place, although they can make the seat feel a little tight in terms of width.

SAA’s touchscreen entertainment system offers an adequate selection of new-releases, golden oldies and African movies, shown on a 17cm (6.8 inch) screen; headphones are over-ear and never fit my tiny head.
