As an aviation enthusiast I am a huge fan of the 787 and really love what AAL did with the business class suites. One of the biggest complaints I hear about business class is that there is not enough room to do work either on a laptop or other methods. The extended tray design is amazing and one of the best features of any business class seat on any airplane.

When the 777 was first introduced, we got similar images of a large, comfortable economy class, but the truth is that most airlines will never use the 3-3-3 seat configuration, as it is not economically viable. What most economy class passengers will get, is a cramped 3-4-3 cabin. That is exactly what happened to the 777.

+Marc Liljeqvist AA's 787 actually has a 3-3-3 configuration, however the plane is much narrower than the 777, the 787 was designed to accommodate 8 abreast and not 9. Shame on AA for choosing such a narrow seat. 17" width for a long haul seat is Torture, no matter how nice the aircraft itself is.

+André Garcia First of all, the 787 was designed from the ground up to accommodate 9 abreast seating. Second, the 777 was designed from the ground up to accommodate 9 abreast seating. Back when the 777 was designed, seats were a standard 18"-19" wide. As new, slim line, narrow seat designs came about and got selected, aircraft were re-designed for them to improve profitability for the carriers. The airlines make the decisions on how they want their seats to be laid out and what type of seats to use. Currently, the new 777s are coming in mostly with 3-4-3 economy layouts, but some airlines are still using 3-3-3. Almost all 787s are 3-3-3, but the Japanese carriers chose 2-4-2. Current and future 737s and A320 series are available with 17" seats as well. Some carriers are contemplating on ordering the updated A380neo with 3-5-3 seating on the main deck, also possible with 17" seats, but Airbus is for now defending 18" seat minimums. The A350 was designed as 3-3-3 with 18" seats. It isn't wide enough to fit 3-4-3, even with 17" seats.

+harris3693 NOTHING like the MD-80 seating AT ALL. MD-80s were designed for 5 abreast seating at 18" or more width (depending on width of aisle.) They were designed in the 1960s as DC-9.

We as passengers benefit from this technological competitiveness

I’m going to fly on one of these in a few months, can’t wait!!

It was a great honor to provide technical/ commercial on-site support as Boeing. I had the opportunity twice to support this airline as Boeing. 2001-2006 and again 2016-2021.

1:05 I went on this suite. It was gorgeous. It had games and a gamepad to play the games. Movies. An adjustable chair. Yeah. Perfection.

I came home from Chicago on one of these today. The tinting windows and color lighting are impressive. The tv in the seat is cool with tons of recent movies and interactive flight graphics ...and I was in the cheap seats. Still, at 6'3", my knees were mushed into the seat in front of me and my shoulder sticks out into the aisle and gets bumped constantly. I honestly have more leg room on their tiny regional jets and S80s :( The 787 is a very nice airplane with nice features but they again crammed too darn many seats into it. I'll pass next time.

Btw, 226 seats on a 787-8 is not crammed at all. All Nippon Airways puts 335 seats on their 787-8`s, so yeah.

+Elitewarrior007 I fly all over the country every month. I hopped off a Bombardier regional jet from GRB to ORD just 45min before getting on the Dreamliner and I truly had more knee room on the smaller plane. No headroom, no shoulder room ...but more legroom. The S80 and MD80 are also cramped but I truly have more room for my legs than the 787 offers. Perhaps your 6'5 is from the waist up, I haven't seen 4" of legroom in coach since 2005. I like the plane and the tech is unreal but it is what it is.

Michael T Agree, even passengers on Thai, Qatar, Scoot and other Dreamliner operators complain for super cramped seats unless if you're able to fly First or Business Class. Previously My Aunt tried out ANA's 787 economy class from HND to SIN. Later she told me that she couldn't bear any longer flights after enduring 6 hours of sleepless, shoulder pain and numb foot. By the way, she is only 5'8 tall with slim waist and does not have any issue with smaller aircraft other than 787. Personally, the Dreamliner was one of my favorite too but the cabin comfort was a major letdown.

That pilot knows 41,000 feet is a normal cruising altitude. That's not "higher." Most modern aircrafts can go up to 41,000 feet, including the 767 that he talked about.

By the way, on a 2-5-2 layout, only a single row of passengers is two seats away from the aisle. With 3-3-3 seating, there are two rows of passengers who are two seats away from the aisle, so in fact, flight attendants reach more in the 787.

The longer the aircraft will be in the air the lower it will fly. Doing trans Atlantic flights is usually around 32K feet while a one hour regional flight would go up to 40,000 feet.

@georgelurye6274

8 жыл бұрын

+The_Communist_ Texan Wow... you got that completely the opposite. The longer the flight, the higher the altitude. Why? The benefit of high altitude is less air resistance, which allows for better fuel economy and extended range during long flights. The lower the altitude, the more fuel you use to fly. Turbofan engines are most effective at high altitudes. When you don't have far to go, spending time to climb to high altitude and then to descend is useless. It is just faster and simpler to stay at 25k-33k feet. That's efficient enough and makes it easier to get back down. When you're flying long-distance, you may as well climb as high as you can go and burn less fuel, making more profit or enabling the aircraft to fly to a farther destination. I just came back from a round trip flight from New York to Stockholm/Copenhagen on a 787-8 and we cruised at 41,000ft on the way to Stockholm and at 38,000 on the way to New York. The typical 737/A320 flight within the US cruises at 30,000 to 32,000.

Not any worse than SAS I think. I did find that the air pressurization in the 787 was better than average though. I have to swallow air 5 or more times during ascent and descent usually and I didn't have to swallow air at all at ascent to 40,000 feet, while just 2 times during descent this time around, so I'm very happy.

Are they also gonna renew their fleet of flight attendants. Since it is as old and worn as the planes are

Hey AA, a question: so how is a pretty aircraft with fancy interior lighting relevant when it doesn't take off or land on time? How is that self-tinting fancy window a good thing when it's caked with face grease from the kids on the last 10 flights and you haven't cleaned it? Asking for a friend....

AA has a lot to catch up...

I have never been on a plane it looks awesome I must face my fear

What is the seating capacity of this AA 787???

Lovely..but one must exercise extreme care when docking the areobridge to the 787 fuselage.Because of the fragile nature of the composite material a 5 centimetre gap must remain between the aircraft and bridge.Hard contact will result in composite denting and 'popping'..the surface pops back into shape like when a plastic bottle is compressed. However,internal damage may result.Unlike other metal skins like the 747 the 787 is a lot more 'sensitive' rather than weak.
