Title: First Class Seat Maps Post by: gumbieben on December 08, 2008, 20:12:51 Does anyone have any links to FGW HST seat maps? (Have done a search but couldn't find anything)
Traveling over Christmas in coach H seat 10F and wanted to know if it's what Eurostar would call a 'Club Duo' (ie just one seat facing another) or if its part of a group of four. Title: Re: First Class Seat Maps Post by: rogerw on December 08, 2008, 21:16:56 It should be a table for two
Title: Re: First Class Seat Maps Post by: Chris from Nailsea on December 08, 2008, 21:50:59 Hello, gumbieben, and welcome to the Coffee Shop forum!
I've also tried finding such seating maps before now, but had to give up, too ... ::) Title: Re: First Class Seat Maps Post by: Ollie on December 08, 2008, 22:01:30 First Class is easy one as they all have tables.
I will TRY and get seat maps, but I make no promises. Title: Re: First Class Seat Maps Post by: inspector_blakey on December 08, 2008, 22:08:14 You can work it out like this (in first class, anyway...) Seat 1 is a table of two; seats 2 and 3 and a table of four; seat 4 is a table of 2; 5 and 6 are a table of 4; and so on and so on...
Haven't seen any standard class seat maps - also depends on whether you get a HD or an LD set: they seem to be used interchangeably and it's just pot luck.

Thanks for the info.... so seat 10F would be a table of two, facing forwards..... so a seat map would look like this??? 15B/14B 13B ===== == 15F/14F 13F 12B/11B 10B ===== == 12F/11F 10F 09B/08B 07B ===== == 09F/08F 07F 06B/05B 04B ===== == 06F/05F 04F 03B/02B 01B ===== == 03F/02F 01F Title: Re: First Class Seat Maps Post by: devon_metro on December 09, 2008, 14:01:24 10 is indeed a forward facing. I have the *old* HST layouts but FC has not changed.
Title: Re: First Class Seat Maps Post by: 12hoursunday on December 10, 2008, 09:47:06 10 is indeed a forward facing. I have the *old* HST layouts but FC has not changed. Can't be right. If seat is facing forward in one direction it must be facing backwards in the other direction. You'll find that a pair of seats will have the same number ie get a ticket with seat 10F and you will sit facing forward, get one with 10B and you'll sit with your back to the direction of travel. Sets of 4 seats will have 2 seats with say 12 with a picogram of a window around it 12F means you will sit next to the window in the direction of travel 12B next to the window with your back in the direction of travel. Seats 11F and 11B means that you sit next to the gangway sitting forward or back as the case may be. Title: Re: First Class Seat Maps Post by: moonrakerz on December 13, 2008, 21:13:44 Try this:-

Seats 10F and 10B are indeed a table for two, then. ;) Title: Re: First Class Seat Maps Post by: devon_metro on December 14, 2008, 10:24:32 Interestingly, the seat diagrams are all from the old HSTs
