A330-300
1-2-2, lie-flat, direct aisle access is not available from every seat, no privacy door. Seat scores 5/10.
Thompson Vantage in a staggered 2-2-1 / 1-2-1 pattern. 24 of the 30 seats reach an aisle directly, so the field is false — it means every seat. This carrier was left unverified on the first pass because sources disagreed; a later source resolved it with the 24-of-30 figure.
