Current English A330 fleet page: configuration 33J, its per-cabin passenger counts, section count, bassinet rows, emergency-exit/extra-legroom placement and explicitly listed non-viewing seats.
The 33J panel image alt text incorrectly says 33K; the dropdown code, panel order and official PNG filename identify 33J.

Cathay currently publishes 33J as 28 flat-bed Business / 265 Economy = 293. The 1-2-1 Business grid is seven full A/D/G/K rows (11, 12, 14-18). Economy is 136 seats in full 2-4-2 rows 39-55 plus a 129-seat rear section (full rows 59-70, 2-3-2 taper rows 71-74, partial row 75) = 265. Cathay marks 59A/C/H/K extra legroom and explicitly identifies 42A/42K and 59A/59K as windowless. Other window alignment is unknown. The page image alt text incorrectly says 33K, while the dropdown panel and PNG filename identify 33J.
