Hi there!

I would suggest reading out blog post on what to expect from Green Class to get an idea of what it offers. Personally I love the extra luxury but most people are more than fine in ordinary class.

Since you are with 6 there's also an other reason why to stick to ordinary class because in ordinary class the seat layout is 3 x 2 meaning that you can seat 3 persons together in one row and then 3 behind there. It is also possible to turn the seats around so you can sit all together.

Hope this helps!
Daniel
