SWISS Airbus A330 300 seat review by Roger #27914

Seat 23A is a bulkhead seat. I chose it hoping to have more legroom, being 6' 2" tall. It was nice not having anybody in front of me, but the inability to stretch my legs out at all was bad. I had to periodically stand up and remain standing for the 10 hour flight. Also the seat is narrower to accomodate the video screen and tray table which stow into the armrest. Entertainment options were awful. Unusable. Entertainment controller was beaten up and well worn. It was pretty easy to stand up and get past the guy sitting next to me though. I don't know if there is a lavatory immediately in front of my bulkhead (the curtain was closed), but I smelled a significant odor of that strange bathroom toilet chemical they use. It came and went, but was a little annoying). For coach, the food was great. Got served food twice, ice cream, hot towels, numerous drinks, and some Swiss chocolate. I was VERY pleased. SWISS airlines are awesome. Better than Lufthansa and blows any American brand out of the water! If you're tall, the seat to have is 23D. I was green with envy.
