Right now, I'd take a seat on the wing of any flight

I don't care what plane it is as it's just a bus with wings. But I prefer morning flights because of the time difference.

The early flight. Only because we normally rent a car and it means driving to the hotel while it's still light.

The early flight, the difference between the 200 and 200 models of the A330 in PE is not noticeable.

If this is Virgin Atlantic then seating config is different on the different aircraft

Airbus A330 - 200 Width 17.7" Pitch 36"
Airbus A330 - 300 Width 21" Pitch 38"

Clearly the A330 - 300 is more prefereable

Of course there are no guarantees on which aircraft you will actually get !

We picked the 200, for a couple of reasons. One because it’s early gets us there earlier. And also (for the first time) we are going upper and they have refurbished the 200 planes and it looks nicer than the 300.

Was looking at the 200 upper and the layout does look better as you say
