I was on the san francisco to london flight (10 hours) and I am tall so this seat is ideal for taller people. And there's there exit door contraption, which limits it more. I think this is a good seat. It's been a long time since I've flown long-haul with United, and hopefully it will be a long time before I have to fly with them again! An infinity of settings for the seat going from full up to fully flat allows for easy change to allow muscles not to cramp. In nearly 18 hours I was here, I smelled the restrooms maybe only twice though. Otherwise good cabin crew are noisy in the galley, talking among themselves and banging carts. I fly 500K miles a year and always ask for row 1 or 6 on united if I am on the 787. 2016/12/19 for Seat 20F
SeatGuru User on Because of the windows and the digital lighting you can at least feel that you can look out. I think United should change the seat 1-2-1.
SeatGuru User on 2019/12/26 for Seat Very bad
Your pleasure in these sits will depend on your what you are most important do you. 2017/04/09 for Seat 16L This seat is best suited for sleeping on one's back. While some of the crew were a little disappointing, others were excellent.
It literally felt like my head was being cooked!
Only 2 miserable meals with negligible selection of snacks en route. SeatGuru User on Anyone who is complaining about ANY Polaris seat on this plane is delusional. This business class seat seems to have what i regard as a serious flaw. However there was no foot rest, in fact same for all the seats in Economy/Economy Plus. Mine had scratchy sound for movies and entertainment. SeatGuru User on 2018/09/11 for Seat 37J It's time for United Airlines to re-examine itself and repent, and the CEO to resign. 2017/08/28 for Seat 18E This is true of all 787 that United has including routes to Osaka, and Shanghai. Talk about a poor man's First Class! 6DE has bulkhead seat footwells that offer dramatically more foot space when sleeping. 2014/11/07 for Seat 7 D 7 E Not to mention sometimes a few people waiting to use the bathroom. Pam S on Seat 1E had lots of room including the footwells. Economy + is not interresting; slim seats are very hard and 4 recline is insignifiant. Traveled to Australia with family. Sonia A on SeatGuru User on The seat was pretty comfy but still a bit narrow.
Mood lighting exceptional. Additional information may be accessed by clicking The United Airlines Boeing 787-9 aircraft are some of the most technologically advanced aircraft flying. SeatGuru User on I asked the flight attendants and they told the guy in front of me to stop. SeatGuru User on SeatGuru User on Michael R on -9 version of 787 in Polaris has seats right next to each other with a fairly massive divider at shoulder level and an extending divider/table that can easily be stepped around.
Leg room not bad but limited foot room. Ended up with a migraine by the time I got to LAX. When we landed, we got delayed. 2016/03/25 for Seat 35L The handicapped bathroom is a plus if you are traveling with children who require assistance. The flight wasn't bad at all.
