Malaysia Airlines seat reviews

Comfortable & spacious seat

The seat width is adequate. Controls are preset - press one button to get the seat to upright position, another to recline and raise legrest, a third to recline flat for sleeping. When lying flat in this seat, your feet go into a recess under the seat in front, slightly offset to the left of you. If you are more than about 175 cm tall or have feet bigger than size 9, you will find the length of the seat and the size of the area for your feet inadequate

Legroom is good because its the first row against the bulkhead of that section (betweent business class and premium economy), however the seat width is reduced due to the in-seat tray and entertainment screen. Seat recline is ok but the seat itself is not comfortable somehow. Food was extremely salty and they ran out of choice when it came to my turn. Cabin lights were totally turned off (instead of dimmed) during mid flight making walks along the aisle to the lavatory hazardous.

27A is an excellent seat; but, it's quite expensive. I was charged RM180.00 each way (Kuala Lumpur KUL to London LHR, return). I used to book this seat whenever available.
It is a window seat with ample leg room and easy to go in and out of your seat to visit the toilet. Only be cautious with your head whenever you stand up for nature call because the emergency exit door slants quite low overhead. If you're not careful, you can knock your head against the door.
A good, comfy seat for long haul flight eg. the KL-London direct flight (abt 14 hours non-stop)

#MH89 #MalaysiaAirlines have a nice new plane but disappoint with service
Flew #JL724 KUL✈NRT 787-9 #JapanAirlines Business Class Suite far better product
Paid ฿26565 RTN JL/MH so cheap BC ticket for BKK-NRT
Incl. BKK-KUL-BKK #B738 flights 👌
Aircraft:
Seat armrest in #A359 was narrow and no privacy
For 3D/3G carry on use 3A/3K overhead bins
Engines smooth/noise low/in cabin noise low
Some of the buttons for seat not functioning properly (press button light displays then press again for seat to go back/down) annoying
Will try other airlines A359

The new airbus A350 is both good & bad. The airplane is clean, neat design but it has some drawbacks which are like marmite. The good bits, new plane, clean & feels like fresh design & drawbacks are the seats do not offer wide business seats. The photos will demonstrates that there is not enough room to move around & feel smaller than the other business class in their fleet. The real elephant in the room is the plane is so noisy & feels uncomfortable without any ear defenders in!

I enjoyed the freedom of an extra legroom
Shame about the charges and unclear demarcation which enabled non paying passengers to move seats after the plane had taken off

It was a lot quieter and the take off and landing were better feel than other models. The greatest criticism is the seat design. Once the seat is almost fully reclined any attempt to adjust the legs position is most difficult. Also the seat width make no sense. I cant even place my arms on my sides.

MH3 on May 18. Seat 5K is not suitable if you're more than 5'5". Although it is a window seat, but with the extra desk on your right, the window is totally not easily accessible. Very hard to snap a photo/record a video from that distance. Space to get in/out from the bunker is also very tight, barely can fit both of my leg. 2 star rating for seat recline because no individual recline function, 2 star food because QA is the 5 star, 1 star for IFE because IFE for whole plane was not functioning during first half of the flight, 2 star for crews service because crews seems like dragging their feet to serve the guests.

This is a fairly cosy 9 abreast in economy. There was not a lot of elbow room if you happen to be sitting next to a fidgety passenger. Food was ok, if unremarkable. I struggled to get a glass of wine with the meal-it seems this is a slightly unusual request. The stewardess made passengers in-recline during meal service. Legroom wasn’t bad though, and I’m 5’10” tall and quite leggy! There seemed to be some good movies in the entrtainment system (but I usually take my own entertainment on an iPad)
