There is no consistency with their business class product. Having recently flown four sectors with them on one business trip - I experience 3 different types of Business Class product. The first A340 had what they call lie flat seats. They are not lie flat they are angled. The second product on another version of the A340 was one of the old style business class seats which merely reclined. The third product was on the Jet Airways Boeing 777 which was a truly lie flat seat in herring bone style similar in layout to the Virgin Upper Class product. So unless you know which aircraft you are flying in it's pot luck!

It's pot luck with Gulf Air, the "New" Business Class seats are in fact OK. Good angle to sit and not too bad on the whole to sleep. Again, the 2-3-2 configuration is annoying if you end up between two total strangers in the middle of the 3 seats. The privacy screens are a hassle if you actually are traveling with someone and want to have that conversation!

Rather disappointed after reading about the seat on their website before travelling. In seated location it is okay, but the angled recline position does not enable any sleep - many passengers around me were complaining that this is a really uncomfortable sleeping position. Why do Gulf Air not provide a decent flat-bed like British Airways etc.
