My wife swapped & I moved to the aisle seat (36F) with the stupid box, hoping to stretch out in the aisle. 2016/12/28 for Seat 35A One thing to note that others have overlooked is that there IS ventilation for middle seat passengers, its just next to the single window seat. Will go out … If you are truly unlucky, as I was, you will have a gamer seated behind you, attacking the somewhat unresponsive touchscreen for hours, making your head feel like there is a woodpecker tapping away... This is meant to be a plane for long flights! I would highly recommend Qatar Airways. It is hard to walk with a bag... QA squeezed 4 seats in the middle row of B777 instead of 3... Paul Y on SeatGuru User on SeatGuru User on SeatGuru User on Even 'normal' people will be touching shoulders, not to mention sitting next to someone overweight. There are many intangibles that make the 787 very nice to fly in. Flew Perth to Doha late Nov 15 and back early Jan 16. Service was top-notch, amenity kits and pajamas were given on this 7hr flight! PS: QR in-flight service is very good, except for the odd practice, for no apparent reason, of waiting 15 minutes to clear trays and serve coffee. 2014/04/22 for Seat 24D Very little legroom if you end up in a seat with the media box. Those enthusing about the of the windows aren't old enough to have flown in a Vickers Viscount. Had no problem on Qatar 777 or A380. i would rename this plane the hell-liner if you have to fly economy. 2017/03/17 for Seat A1 2017/10/10 for Seat 31G George G on The seats have little padding, are uncomfortable and are simply useless. Good job it was only a 3 hour flight... I even joined the frequent flyer's club. 2016/08/18 for Seat 36F Food was also the worst I have ever had on any airline.
My seat number was 39K, it was a window seat. 2 flights on 2 versions of this Qatar 777 & even with all the pre-planning, I am struggling to find a fully comfortable seat.
Seats in coach on this plane were very comfortable. But a super narrow seat and an non functioning air condition system made this flight unbearable. But seats not good enough for 5-6 hour flight. When the guy in front of me decided to recline, straight into my knees!! Maybe the idea to keep PAX stuck in their seats so FA's can eat their own dinners? Good decision but didn't see that as the biggest issue with this aircraft's seating arrangement. Avoid row 6 on Qatar's 787 if at all possible Qatar have some of the best legroom in the game when it comes to economy . Have had no issue seats with their A 320 330 and 350 aircraft There is no storage space at all. SeatGuru User on All in all not bad and not exceptional good but what do you expect from coachclass, really?! The seat pitch is tight at 31 inches but for me it's the seat width that is just unbearable - it's just so narrow and I'm average build. Row 3 is probably the best on this plane because there was literally no cross foot traffic to lavatories due to one lav being in the front and two in the back of the biz section. I am a short person of 163 cm, and I felt cramped in this seat for a 6 hour flight. Toothbrush and shaving razors are in the bathrooms now.
the service on board a really good and so are the IFE
SeatGuru User on Overall a very nice seat. A crew member told me that many passengers complain about the seats and they already prefer the A350. The most uncomfortable seat I experienced in 25y. 2016/08/18 for Seat 20G There are some very critical reviews about the 787. Would recommend an aisle seat if you're tall. I flew DOH to CPT on June 1 on a 787-8 a "Dreamliner". It was 1hr flight of hell due to the extremely close seats. The arrangement of the seats with the heads away from each other is perfect for the single traveller, but travelling with my husband, it was rather annoying that we could not chat without actually shouting. Bas V on I had a window seat and it has a bulky TV entertainment system box under the seat.
