Which is the best seat on Boeing 777-300ER?

Rows 5 to 10 offer the best views as they are unobstructed by the plane's wings, while passengers should note that rows 11 and 13 have one window fewer.



On a typical Boeing 777-300ER, the "best" seat depends on your cabin. In Business Class, seek out the "true" window seats (often labeled A or K) in staggered layouts for maximum privacy; many airlines like Emirates or Air India have updated these to include privacy doors. In Economy, the most coveted spots are the exit row seats (typically in the 30s or late 40s/50s depending on the airline) which offer massive legroom, though the tray tables are in the armrests, making the seat slightly narrower. Another pro tip is the "twin seats" at the very rear of the aircraft where the fuselage tapers; these rows of two are perfect for couples. Avoid seats near the galleys or lavatories to minimize noise and foot traffic disturbances during long-haul flights.

Which Seats to Avoid. First, I'd avoid any seats up against a bulkhead wall (typically in the last row of a cabin), since recline will be limited. That includes seats 51A and B (pictured above), along with 51K and L. In this category, you'll also want to skip 22DEFG, 37ABC, 37DEFG, 37JKL and the four seats in row 52.

In the upper deck, there is no engine noise to speak of. In the forward section of the 777 (normally this is business class) the noise is a loud but muffled (think of a speaker under a pillow), but not as loud as in the entire economy class cabin. In economy class the noise is atrocious on the 777.
