Seat map of the of the Boeing 787-8 (788)

This airplane offers 291 seats of two classes: premium economy and economy.


Premium Economy seats are located in the first 5 rows. First 4 rows have 2-3-2 configuration and the 5th row offered 4 seats. The noise from the lavatories located in front may cause discomfort to passengers of the seats of the 1st row. Passengers who need bassinets are often seated on the seats 1G and 1J.

The main disadvantages of the seats 4DEF are: limited recline and location of the galley behind.

Because of the exit row located behind the seats of the 5th row are less reclining than standard. Missing windows make the seats 5A and 5J bad seats. One more disadvantage of the seats 5C and 5G is close location to the galley.

Behind the exit row 2 sections of economy class seats are located.

First section of economy class seats contains 18 rows of seats: 17 rows have 3-3-3 configuration and one row has 3-3 configuration. Protrusion of the exit door inside restricts the legroom of the seat 6A. Among other disadvantages: lack of floor storage during take-off and landing and reduced width. Extra legroom of the seats 4BC and 4DEF makes these seats the best seats. At the same time as the tray tables are built-in the armrests of these seats their width is reduced. Also, these seats have no floor storage during take-off and landing.

Passengers of the seats 7GHJ will feel comfortable thanks to additional legroom. However, the width of these seats is reduced and there is no floor storage during take-off and landing. For passengers travelling with babies the seat 7J offers bassinet.

Proximity of the lavatories will cause discomfort to passengers of the seats 22CD, 22FG and of the seats of the 23rd row. Also the seats of the 23rd row have limited recline.

Behind the exit row the second section of economy class seats is located. This section has 12 rows. First 10 rows have 3-3-3 configuration.

Congregation of passengers that are waiting to use lavatories in front of the seats of the 24th row may be bothersome for passengers of these seats. Other disadvantages of the seats 24A and 24J are: protrusion of the exit rows inside and reduced width. Thanks to the exit row in front the seats 24BC, 24DEF and 24GH offer extra legroom. However, tray tables and TV located in the armrests of these seats make these armrests immovable and reduce width. The seat 24F offers bassinet.

Because of missing windows the seats 31A and 31J are considered bad seats.

Close location of the lavatories is the only disadvantage of the seats 33GHJ, 34C and 34F.

Due to the bulkhead located behind the seats of the last 35th row have limited recline. Also proximity of the lavatory and galley may also cause discomfort. These seats are considered bad seats.
