Malaysia Airlines Airbus A350 900 seat review by alaramon #34871

The aircraft on flight MH 002 Malaysian airlines from Kuala Lumpur to Heathrow looked fresh and new. The lighting made it looked modern. However, the aisles on this aircraft are very narrow so it is difficult to walk along the cabin. I sat at 15H which is a seat with extra leg room. Though this extra leg room is welcome, the seat is very narrow too. The configuration is 3-3-3, which makes the plane feel claustrophobic particularly for a 13 hours flight. The overhead light is very weak so it is almost impossible to read in pitch darkness. Turbulences are felt more than in the airbus 380 and the airbus 350 also makes more noise than the 380. In terms of service, the 2 meals were good but the crew did not pass through the cabin between meals so had to get up and go to the end of the aircraft each time that I wanted to request water or juice.
