How do the scores on these Thai Airways shortlists work?

Scores are editorial opinions on a 1 to 10 scale. They start near the middle, then move with a simple heuristic on our schematic. Exit rows and bulkheads usually gain points for space. Window and aisle seats gain a small preference over middle seats. Seats next to a lavatory or a galley lose points for traffic and noise, and many rear rows lose a little as well. On the Airbus A350-900 shortlist, the editorial ranking starts with 24A, 24K, 37A. The full rules are in the methodology. A plain language walkthrough is in How Pick Your Row scores work.

Can the real Thai Airways cabin differ from these shortlists?

Yes. Each shortlist follows one typical drawing, not every aircraft Thai Airways flies. Economy block patterns behind these shortlists are blocks of 3, 3, and 3, or blocks of 3, 4, and 3. Drawn seat counts on these configs run about 256 to 348 seats. Another registration can move galleys, lavatories, exit rows, or the number of rows. Confirm the aircraft on your ticket, and the live seat map, with Thai Airways before you pay.
