Boeing 777-200 Nordwind Airlines Airines

If you are flying Nordwind

Nordwind Airlines has two Boeing 777-200 aircraft in its fleet, in the 777-200ER configuration, which includes 393 seats, divided into business and economy classes. Below is a diagram of the Boeing 777-200 cabin and best places in the salon that are worth choosing.

Scheme Boeing cabin 777-200 Nordwind Airines

This modification of the cabin provides the following breakdown of seats by row: three in the first row, three in the last and four seats in the middle. Toilets are located at the beginning and end of the cabin, there are two bathrooms in different parts of the cabin, utility and kitchen facilities are located at the head and tail of the aircraft, one kitchen is located in the middle of the cabin. There are only six seats in business class, all located at the front of the cabin. Economy class starts from the fifth row.

The fifth and sixth rows of seats are good in their own way, but there is also a fly in the ointment. The downside of these seats is that in front of you there will be a blank wall separating business class from the rest of the cabin. In addition, you won’t be able to stretch your legs, there simply won’t be enough space, and the dining table will have to be taken out of the armrest. But in front of you there will be no annoying neighbors who would recline their chairs. The same advantages and disadvantages are observed throughout the 20th row, as well as on places D-G the twenty-first row, but instead of the business class wall, there will be a toilet in front of you.

Business class aircraft

Rows twelve to fourteen (except for the last three seats in row 12) have a small radius of seat back adjustment because they are located next to the kitchen. In rows 38 and 39 the same problem is observed, only the reason is the proximity of the bathrooms. Another disadvantage of the close location of the WC is the constant flow of passengers past your seat.

The seats in the 45th row are comfortable, since this is where the emergency exits are located, which means there is additional space. But the row 46 next to it is limited in maneuvers - again the proximity of the toilets is to blame.

The seats in the last rows from 54 to 56 are quite comfortable where there are two people. The fuselage narrows at the tail, so there are fewer seats. But rows 57 and 58 are an extremely bad choice. The seats do not recline, and there is a toilet and utility room behind.

Presented to you is a Boeing 777-200 Nord Wind, the cabin layout of which contains the best and not so good seat options. When buying a plane ticket, be sure to pay attention to what seat you are buying, don’t get into trouble - choose seats in which you will enjoy the flight.

Choosing Aeroflot aircraft

Aeroflot has at least thirteen such aircraft. The airline operates aircraft of the 777-200ER modification, the most modern of all existing ones.

The aircraft cabin is divided into three classes: business, comfort and economy, and can accommodate 402 people.

Toilets and galleys are located at the tail and head of the aircraft, as well as at the beginning, middle and end of the cabin. The seats are arranged according to the pattern: “three chairs-four-three chairs.” The fuselage tapering towards the tail suggests a two-four-two configuration. Most seats in economy class, thirty - in business class, the rest of the seats belong to the “comfort” category.

When flying on a Boeing 777-200 (cabin diagram), the best seats are, of course, located in the classes top level. However, if your choice is economy class, then pay attention to the following selection rules convenient place so that the flight brings you only joy.

Economy class starts from the 17th row, where it is quite convenient to fly, since there is an emergency exit in front of the seats, and this guarantees free space around. Two seats in the 18th row, namely C and H, are the most comfortable, as they are located far from the utility rooms, and there are no other seats in front of them.

The seat pitch in the economy row is 74 cm.

Location and numbering of seats in the cabin, seat layout on the Boeing 777-200ER aircraft. The best and least comfortable seats on the plane

Interior layout, best and less comfortable places on a Boeing 777-200ER aircraft of Vietnam Airlines

The Vietnam Airlines fleet includes 10 Boeing 777-200ER aircraft in two-class and three-class configurations, which operate transatlantic flights to Europe, Australia, Ceso-East Asia and domestic flights. You can fly from Moscow on these planes: to Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Nha Trang.

Below is a diagram of the cabin with a layout of 25 business class seats, 54 comfort class seats and 228 economy class seats.

  • Business class seats occupy from 1 to 4 row. They are quite comfortable: wide seats, increased distance between them. In front of the first row there are toilets, and behind the last row there is a galley. During night flights, going to the toilet, sounds and lights from the kitchen can cause some inconvenience.
  • Comfort class occupies rows 10 to 15. 10th row seats located behind the utility room, extraneous noise is possible.

    Economy class divided into two salons: the first - from rows 20 to 32, the second - from 45 to 58.
    20 row- the seats are quite comfortable, if you don’t mind the wall in front separating the service classes and the fixed armrests of the outer seats. This row has plenty of legroom.
    On seats 24 and 25 rows There is no window and on a long flight it can be a little dreary, although at night this does not matter at all.
    All seats in rows 31, 32, 57 and 58 (except center seat E in rows 31 and 57) may be inconvenient due to the proximity to the toilets - this is the constant movement of passengers, the sounds of a barrel being flushed and doors slamming. Also, the seat backs do not recline. (except for seats F and D rows 31 and 57). This is extremely inconvenient on a long flight.
    45 row comfortable and best economy class seats. Since there is an emergency exit in front of this row, the approaches to them are wide, so there is a lot of legroom. Even tall man here you can freely extend them. They are also convenient to fly with children. There are toilets nearby.

General for other places:

  • Advantages of seats located next to the porthole: in the daytime you can admire the beauty of the sky; passengers sitting next to you will not disturb you if they need to get up. Minus: It’s inconvenient to go out during a flight.
  • Seats near the aisle. pros: They are very easy to get up from, no one bothers you. Minus: passengers and flight attendants passing by with trolleys may accidentally hit you.


The Boeing 777-200ER aircraft of Aeroflot airlines have a three-class layout: business class, class increased comfort and economic class.

  • In the business class cabin two rows of seats with a 2:3:2 layout. All seats are quite comfortable, so the flight will be comfortable.
  • Superior comfort class from 3 to 6 rows. All places have an improved layout and are quite comfortable. When flying as a couple, it is better to choose your seats in row 6 A, C or J, L, so they are two in a row and the neighbors will not interfere. Although the seats in the 6th row have disadvantages - the backs of the seats are not adjustable, so there is a partition behind that separates the utility room.
  • Economy class divided into two salons: the first - from rows 10 to 29, the second - from 30 to 43.
    Seats 10 and 30 rows located in front of the toilets, so people can walk around. But these rows have their advantages: there are emergency exits in front, and there is plenty of space to stretch your legs.
    Seat backs 29 and 43 row A are limited in reclining or the seats do not recline at all, since the partitions of the technical units are located close to each other.
    Seats 40 and 41 rows(A, C, J and L) are doubles, not triples. For this reason, they can be called a good option for young couples. As for similar chairs in the last two sections, a drawback can be noted here - they are close to the bathroom. In addition, the seats in the last row do not recline - they are located almost close to the wall.

The KLM Boeing 777-200ER has a maximum capacity of 318 passengers.

  • In World Business Class 5 rows with a 2:2:2 layout. The average distance between seats is 160 cm. Wide seats that convert into a bed are very comfortable during a long flight. Armchairs 5 rows may not be very comfortable on night flights if you are planning to rest, due to the lights being on and the additional noise of the utility room located behind.
  • Business Class- this is its own separate state, it consists of six chairs arranged in one row. The chairs also fold out into a bed and in this row there is a large amount of space between them. Behind is a partition separating service classes, and in front is a utility room.
  • Economy comfort zone consists of four rows ( 10, 11, 12, 14 ) with a 3:4:3 seating arrangement. The distance between the seats is 89 centimeters, the seats are also quite comfortable.
  • Economy class has a slightly smaller distance between the seats - only 79 cm. In general, all seats are comfortable. Nuances can be noted at the seats located near the aisles: when other passengers pass, they may hit you, and seats G, F, E, D 25 rows, 26 and 44 rows located in front of the toilets, which adds inconvenience. Seat backrests B, A, K, J 44 rows They don’t recline, but the plus is that they are arranged in twos. 31 row has a lot of legroom.

Route network

Thai Airways' route network covers approximately 80 destinations and connects 35 countries and all continents, excluding Antarctica.

Since 2005, Thai Airlines has opened a direct flight from Moscow to Bangkok, which has significantly revived tourist traffic between the two countries.

An interesting fact is that the airline operates the longest direct flight in the world in terms of length and duration. The flight from Bangkok to Los Angeles lasts 17 hours 30 minutes. In this case, the aircraft covers a distance of 13,308 km.

Thai Airlines fleet

As of October 20, 2019, Thai Airways has a fleet of 82 aircraft. The average age of the liners is 10.2 years.

The oldest Boeing 737-400 ( tail number HS-TGO) - 26 years old. The youngest Airbus 350-900 (tail number HS-THN) is 1.6 years old.

The company's fleet includes 20 Boeing 777-300 aircraft. 9 of them are the latest extended-range modifications and are marked ER (Extended Range). As a rule, all Boeing ERs have a three-class cabin layout.

We will look at the old base model 777-300, which is most often used by Thai Airlines for flights to Russia.

The cabin features a two-class configuration that accommodates 34 seats in business class and 330 in economy class.

Business Class

Business class has 5 rows and starts from 11 to 16 rows. The chairs recline comfortably, their width is 51 cm, the distance between the rows is 155 cm.

In addition, you will find a varied menu and high-quality service. But there are still some disadvantages.

11 row located immediately behind the partition, so there are mounts for baby bassinets, and often these are the places where passengers with children are located.

In addition, the view is completely limited by the partition, especially in the middle row. Staring at the wall the entire flight, for example, from Moscow to Bangkok, is very tiring.

Seats in row 16 have their own characteristics. Firstly, near the outer seat on the left side 16A there is no porthole. Secondly, the seats are located immediately in front of two sections of the galley. It is very noisy here both at night and during the day.

Economy class

Economy class is separated from business class by an emergency exit block and two galley sections.

Seats 31 and 32 rows those marked in yellow or red are not very comfortable. Those seats that adjoin directly to the galley partitions are equipped with mounts for baby bassinets, so if there are small children on board, it is most likely that they will be placed in these seats.

Armchairs located close to the kitchen/toilet wall. It is always a bustle - people scurrying around, queues, sounds and smells.

It is also important that the folding tables in these places are built into one of the armrests, because of this the armrest is fixed.

In front of the place 32C there is no chair, which gives you extra space for your knees and legs. On a long flight this is very useful.

Places in 43 and 44 rows are the worst places (marked in red): the backs of the seats rest against the wall of the toilet, which is why reclining may be limited. Spending the entire flight in a vertical position is very inconvenient.

In addition, the proximity to toilets can cause some discomfort (fuss, queues, sounds of a flushing tank).

46 row- this is an almost complete copy of rows 31-32. The only difference is that there is no on-board kitchen, only numerous restrooms and an emergency exit block.

47 row A and K- the seats are located in front of emergency exits. You'll have extra legroom, but with the door protruding slightly into the cabin, you won't be able to fully extend your legs. The proximity to the toilets can be a slight inconvenience: passengers constantly walk past, creating queues.

Seats in row 47 B, C and H, J They have extra legroom and the seat backs recline. It would seem that all the conditions for a comfortable flight?

The only downside is the proximity to the restrooms. Since economy class accommodates more than 300 people, there are queues day and night. And also smells, sounds and other unpleasant moments.

Seats in rows 56 and 70 C and H noticeably stick out into the passage. Passengers in these seats may be hit by other passengers or flight attendants with trolleys.

58 row located near the galley. This neighborhood may cause inconvenience.

57 and 59 row— there are seats that may have restrictions on reclining the back of the chair. They are marked in yellow on the diagram.

IN 60 row There are only 4 seats - two on each side of the board. Benefit from additional seat legroom B and J, and disadvantages in the form of limited space on the side of the hatch on the ground A and K. In addition, close proximity to the kitchen may interfere with rest.

IN 61st row the distance between the seats is several centimeters less than in other rows of the plane. Tall people need to take this into account.

Seats in row 62 D, E, F completely repeat the location of the 32nd row: cradles, wall and proximity to the kitchen.

And here seats 62 C and H considered comfortable. There is no chair in front of them, there is good review and there are no toilets nearby.

72 row- the most inconvenient. The seat backs either have limited reclining or are completely fixed. Behind the wall there are restrooms and technical rooms, so here, in addition to smells and sounds, queues of visitors are quite expected.

Photos of the interior of the Boeing 777-300 "Thai Airways"

Economy class photos

There are only 14 Boeing 777-300 aircraft in the Thai Airways fleet. 8 of them are designated ER, which means Extended Range. These planes are newer and have not only business class, but also first class.

However, today we will look at the Boeing 777-300. This is an older aircraft, but it is the one most often used on the Moscow - Bangkok route and others connecting Russia and Thailand.

This aircraft configuration has 34 business class seats and 330 economy class seats.

WITH 11 to 16 rows occupies business class. The seat width is 51 cm, and the step width between the rows is 155 cm. The seats recline comfortably, and you will also find an excellent menu and improved service.

However, there are places here that are a little worse. IN 11th row There are mounts for baby cradles, so business class passengers with babies are seated here.

Also, these rows are located in front of the partition. Some categories of passengers find it inconvenient to stare at the wall for the entire multi-hour flight.

Places in row 16 located close to the galley. This may cause some discomfort, especially on overnight flights and if you want to rest. Also, near the place 16A there is no porthole.

Let's move on to economy class.

Rows 31 and 32- chairs marked yellow or red are not very comfortable. Firstly, these are places with fastenings for baby bassinets, and being with crying children for the entire flight is very annoying.

Secondly, they are located close to the partition or the kitchen/toilet wall. It's always a bustle.

Thirdly, the folding tables are located in one of the armrests and because of this the armrest does not move.

32C- due to the absence of a front seat, you will have a lot of additional space for your knees and legs. This is very important during a long flight.

Places in rows 43 and 44, marked in red. The back of your chair will rest against the wall of the toilet and because of this, reclining may be limited. It is very uncomfortable to be in a vertical position the entire flight.

Proximity to toilets does not add convenience.

This is fraught with fuss, queues, and constant sounds of the door opening/closing and the tank being flushed.

46 row- the same as in rows 31 and 32.

47 row A and K- these places are located directly in front of the emergency doors. You'll have extra knee and leg room. However, since the door protrudes slightly into the interior, it will not be possible to pull them out completely and comfortably.

47 row B,C and H,J- additional legroom, seat backs recline. It would seem, what else is needed for a comfortable flight?

They are overshadowed only by their location near the toilets. It is always bustling and noisy here both day and night. I can do it on my leg step on and touch with your elbow.

Seats in rows 56 and 70 C and H. These seats protrude into the aisle, so they can be hit by flight attendants with trolleys or other passengers. 58 row located near the galley. This may be inconvenient.

57 and 59 row- those seats that are marked in yellow may have restrictions on reclining the backrest.

Advantages and disadvantages of chairs 60 rows the same as in row 47.

61 rows the distance to the row of seats in front is several centimeters less than to any other on this plane.

62 row D,E,F - the same as in rows 31 and 32. those places that are marked in yellow.

62 C and H, the advantages and disadvantages of these places as in 32 C

72 row- rests against the wall. The seat backs may have limited reclining or be blocked altogether. Also, those “wanting” to go to the toilet will constantly walk past you.

Here is such a wonderful Boeing 777 from Thai Airways.

Pleasant flight!
