Good questions before you book.
Not necessarily. Approved passenger seating and sleeping positions are different. Confirm the exact cabin arrangement and overnight needs before booking.
Usually not. Published ranges assume a specific speed, load and reserves; flying faster reduces range.
Only on some aircraft. Confirm fitted equipment and coverage for your route on the specific tail.
Only after the operating carrier assesses the aircraft, route, dates, winds, load and airports.
