Boeing 777 200er seats. Nordwind Airlines

There are 6 Boeing 777-200ER aircraft in operation. The layout of the aircraft provides for 2 classes of service: business and economic. The total passenger capacity is 393 people.

The Boeing 777-200 is used for long-distance flights or on routes with high passenger traffic.

Now let's take a closer look at the configuration of these aircraft, which is used in the North Wind.

1 row This is the only business class row. The only thing we can say is that the distance stated by the airline to the partition from the seat is 127 centimeters.

Let's move on to economy class. The stated distance between the rows is 74 cm. Note that these aircraft use a 3-4-3 seating arrangement. This is a rather uncomfortable configuration for passengers; the cabin is, to put it mildly, “a bit cramped.”

5-6 rows, marked in yellow-green, have a number of advantages and disadvantages.

Let's start with the cons.

In front of you there will be a rigid partition separating business and economy classes. There is enough room for knees in these places, but stretching your legs forward will be problematic. Also, watching the entire flight against a wall is not very comfortable.

The advantage of these places is that no one will lean back their chair on you. On long flights and modest distances between rows, this is quite important.

Rows 12-14. All seats in these rows, except 12H, 12J, 12K, may have limitations in backrest deflection. Also, the proximity of the on-board kitchen does not add convenience.

20 row- exactly the same pros and cons as in row 5. However, in front of you will not be a partition, but a wall of toilets. The proximity of the WC is always unnecessary fuss. constant walking of passengers, sounds of the tank, doors, etc.

The same goes for 21 radas, seats D, F, E, G.

Please note that places 21H and 21K could be called places of increased comfort, since there is enough free space in front of them. However, the proximity of toilets spoils the whole picture.

In addition to the above-mentioned disadvantages, we add that queues may form near you, you may get your foot stepped on or hit with your elbow.

Armchairs in rows 38 and 39 marked in red. Most likely the backrests do not recline or have a limitation in this. There are also toilets nearby.

In some models of this aircraft, there are 1-2 seats with a missing window. In this configuration, these could be seats in the middle section of the cabin, somewhere from rows 20 to 39.

In row 45 due to the location of the escape hatches, there is ample space in front for legs and knees.

46 row D,E,F,G— they run into the wall.

53C and 53H. Behind this row the narrowing of the fuselage begins. The back of your seat may be touched by passing passengers or flight attendants with trolleys.

57 and 58 The rows marked in red are the last rows on the plane. The backrests in these rows are most likely blocked. They are also located next to toilets and other technical rooms.

Places from 54 to 56 rows, in which there are 2 chairs, instead of 3, are a little more comfortable, thanks to this fact. Especially if you are flying together.

Among the Transaero airbuses, there are 9 Boeing aircraft in operation - 777 200 er.

Boeing 777 airliners are the largest aircraft in Russia and the world among twin-engine jet aircraft.

They are also used by Nord Wind (North Wind), Aeroflot and Thai Airlines.

Passenger service class "Tourist"

Seats for Tourist Class clients are located at the rear of the aircraft.

Passengers in this class are provided with:

  • For flights lasting more than 2 hours, passengers receive hot food, and for flights less than 2 hours - sandwiches.
  • Passengers can receive multimedia players for an additional fee.
  • The right to carry 20 kg of baggage free of charge, and for a transatlantic flight - 25 kg per seat.

Boeing 777 200 cabin layout and the best seats in each class

As mentioned above, Transaero operates Boeing 777 200 aircraft in two models: with a 3- and 4-class cabin.

Let's look at the interior design diagrams for each model.

With a 4-class interior.

  • Let's start with the nose of the aircraft. Immediately behind the cockpit are seats for Imperial class passengers. There are only 12 such seats in rows 1–3. This is an almost isolated area with very comfortable chairs. There are no uncomfortable places.
  • Next come the Business class seats. There are also 12 of these seats in 4–5 rows and all of them meet the maximum criteria of standard and comfort. If you can afford it, buy seats in this part of the aircraft cabin.
  • In the middle part of the airliner, from rows 10 to 29, there are Economy Class seats. There are the largest number of these places and they are located according to the 2-5-2 system.
  • Seats in rows 10 and 29 are the least popular. These seats are located behind partitions that separate one class from another, and therefore row 29 seats most likely do not recline.
  • Toilets are located behind the partition of the 10th row. Possible queues at public places are unlikely to please passengers occupying these places.
  • From rows 30 to 43, that is, in the tail of the plane, There are seats for passengers who have purchased Tourist class tickets.
  • Seats in the 30th and 43rd rows have some comments and shortcomings. The main one is the location near partitions or toilets.

In addition, not all seats near the hull in the rear of the aircraft are located near the windows. But there is also a positive thing - in the event of an airliner crash, the passengers in the tail section have the highest chance of surviving.

For 3 class salon

There are no Imperial class seats on aircraft of this model.

Nord Wind

  • Rows 11 to 16 are reserved for Business Class seats.
  • Rows 31 to 50 are seats for Economy Class passengers. Rows 31 and 50 have comments similar to those on the boundary rows of an aircraft with a 4-class cabin.
  • Passengers with tickets for Tourist class seats occupy rows 51 to 64.
  • The least comfortable seats for a long flight are in rows 51 and 64.

How to comfortably fly to your destination?

The best seats on the Boeing 777 200 are located at the front of the plane. These are seats on aircraft with Imperial and Business class service.

There is a fairly large distance between the rows of seats - 125–150 cm. This gives passengers the opportunity to feel quite comfortable during a long-distance flight.

Inconvenience for this category of seats can be created by the proximity to toilets and possible queues to them.

For the middle part of the cabin, corresponding to Economy standard service, the distance between the seats is much smaller, which can create inconvenience and discomfort for tall passengers.

You should refrain from purchasing tickets for seats located on the edge, close to the aisle. Passengers walking down the aisle between seats can inadvertently cause you trouble.

The distance between the rows of seats in the rear section is even smaller - 20–25 cm. This is an area for passengers with the “Tourist” service class. The turbulence in this part of the plane is the strongest, and it is also very noisy from the engines.

Putting aside issues of comfort, the best seats on an airplane are considered to be those in the middle of the cabin.

If you have the opportunity to choose between airliners, choose an aircraft with a 3-3-3 seating arrangement. If you need to fly on an airplane with a 2-5-2 boarding option, try to purchase a ticket with a seat near the hull.

  • Please note the seat indication on the ticket. There are Arabic numbers and letters of the English alphabet side by side. For example, 3A or 1D. The number indicates the row number, and the letter indicates the place in this row. It can be precisely noted that the seats with the letter “A” are located at the porthole, and those with the letter “C” or “D” are located at the aisle.
  • Consider the flight direction and time of day, unless you dreamed of the sun blinding your eyes during the flight. When the airbus is moving from east to west, the sun will be to your left. If you are flying in a southerly direction, then in the morning the sun is to the left, and in the evening - to the right of the airbus.
  • If for some reason you don’t like your places– contact the flight attendant. If there are empty seats in your class, you'll likely have a more comfortable seat before the plane even takes off.

Have a pleasant flight and good impressions from the Boeing 777 200 service!

The Boeing 777-200 is a wide-body, long-range twin-engine aircraft developed by a large American concern using 3D computer graphics in 1990. Four years later, the first test flight took place, and already in 1995 its official commercial operation began.

Other Boeing models with interior diagrams:

Airlines operating the Boeing 777-200

The wide-body long-haul passenger aircraft is operated by many global air carriers.

The most famous operating companies:

  1. The Russian airline Nordwind Airlines (“North Wind”) has 6 Boeing 777-200ER modifications in its fleet.
  2. IrAero, a Russian carrier based in Irkutsk, operates 3 basic version aircraft on its routes.
  3. Turkmenistan's flagship carrier, Turkmenistan Airlines, has two Boeing 777-200LR passenger aircraft in its fleet.
  4. Singapore's national airline, Singapore Airlines, operates 8 aircraft of this model.
  5. The flagship carrier Ukraine International Airlines has 3 modern airliners in its fleet - Boeing 777-200ER.

The aircraft of this model is also in operation by Air Canada, Air China, Air France, Emirates, Ethiopian Airlines, China Southern Airlines, Malaysia Airlines, Korean Air, British Airways, etc.

Despite the release of new modernized Boeing 777 models, the 777-200 version of various modifications remains in demand among many air carriers around the world. Serial production of the passenger model continues.

The Boeing 777 200 aircraft is a new generation airliner that allows you to make long flights in comfort. After reading the article, you will learn what the interior looks like from the inside and how to choose the best seats when buying a ticket.

The 777 200 airliner is part of the fleet of the Northern Wind company, founded in 2008. Nordwind organizes charter flights and is licensed for private and cargo flights.

The company's fleet consists of 21 aircraft, of which 3 are Boeing 777-200ER (ER - literally Extended Range, which means increased flight range). The model entered active service in 1995, and the first flight was made in 1994.

In the Nordwind fleet, Boeings have tail numbers: VP-BJF, VP-BJB, VQ-BUD.

  1. VP-BJF. The youngest of the partners. Until he was 13, he flew for a Chinese airline, after which he took over NordWind;
  2. VP-BJB. He began his flight experience in '98 also in the Chinese airlines fleet, where he remained until 2013, then he was acquired by the current company;
  3. VQ-BUD. Created in 1998, it was owned by several air carriers, including Aeroflot. North Wind bought Boeing in 2014.

Advantages of the 777-200 aircraft

North Wind strives to optimize the composition of the park, making it possible to improve quality and create comfortable conditions.

The Boeing 777 200 is a wide-body passenger aircraft. The aircraft layout includes 393 passenger seats, which are divided into 2 classes: economy and business. It is capable of serving flights up to 18 hours non-stop.

Interesting fact: in 2003, Boeing set an emergency record for flying on one engine for almost 3 hours with passengers on board.

Features and capabilities of the court:

The fly-by-wire control system allows you to automatically avoid potentially dangerous maneuvers during flight and ensures that the pilots’ actions do not exceed acceptable limits. If necessary, the pilot can disable the system.

The Boeing 777 200er has the largest tires and landing gear of any commercial jet.

The interior is made in curved lines. There are shelves for oversized luggage. Before the creation of the 787 airliner, Boeing was considered the aircraft with the largest window sizes. There are designated crew rest areas located in the forward compartment of the aircraft. These include:

  1. 2-3 sleeping places;
  2. Two armchairs;
  3. Washbasin;
  4. TV.

Passenger cabin configuration of 777-200 Nordwind

There are 3 kitchen spaces and utility rooms, which are located at the beginning, middle and end. Restrooms are also allocated at the beginning and end of the plane. The seats in the stalls are made with a hydraulic hinge, which allows you to gently lower the toilet lid. There are two bathrooms, which are often located in front and behind next to the toilet rooms.

The layout allows employees to change the configuration of galleys, lavatories and seating depending on the needs of a particular flight.

Salons are distinguished by type of layout:

  1. Economy class for 440 seats;
  2. Economy and business class 396 seats;
  3. Economy, first, business 306 seats.

Let's consider a basic modification of the board with two classes.

Business Class

Occupies the front part of the aircraft. No more than 10 places are allocated for this category. Offers passengers a configuration of 4 seats in a row. They are arranged according to the number of seats 2-2-2, sometimes 2-3-2. For business class, Nord Wind claims a distance of 127 cm from the seat to the partition.

Peculiarities:

  • the seats are one and a half times wider than the economy category and can be transformed into a sleeping place;
  • reclining backrests extend more than in economy;
  • comfortable armrests;
  • restaurant menu;
  • there are retractable footrests.

Economy class

Starts from the 5th row. The distance between the seat backs is 74 cm. There are no footrests, but the chairs are quite comfortable, with armrests. They are made of ergonomic materials. The backrests recline slightly due to lack of space. There is a folding table, seat belts, earplugs and a storage pocket.

Economy class occupies 90% of the passenger compartment. The seating arrangement is as follows: 3 on the left, 4 in the center, 3 on the right. Most clients find this arrangement uncomfortable due to the narrow passages, constantly cruising passengers to the toilet.

During the flight you can watch movies and drink cocktails. The electronic panel allows you to track the location of the aircraft en route.

Choosing the best place

The first rows of economy class (5-6) have the undeniable advantage that there are no passengers who could recline the seat back on you. These seats in Boeing are considered good for flights and the most comfortable.

Information for mothers: in these places you can place a cradle with your baby in front of you.

The disadvantages of the row are the wall in front of the face, behind which the business class is located.

This is a quiet space, as toilets, bathrooms and kitchens are located further down the cabin. Another disadvantage is that you cannot fully extend your legs in front of you due to the partition.

Row 20 is similar to rows 5 and 6, but instead of business class there is a toilet partition in front, which means regular disturbance for passengers. This also includes seats from row 21 and seats G, F, D, E.

The advantage of row 45 is the ability to stretch your legs and straighten your knees due to the location of the emergency hatches.

For traveling couples, seats in the last row of the plane may become comfortable due to the narrowing of the fuselage. Instead of 3 seats, there are 2. The disadvantage is the possibility of hitting a passenger with a trolley carried by a flight attendant, as well as a line of people standing in the restroom.

Bad places: how not to make a mistake

Rows 38 and 39 are among the most uncomfortable. The chairs do not recline; in some cases there are restrictions on the level of inclination. Another minus is the proximity of the restroom.

53C and 54H are considered uncomfortable places due to the fact that passing passengers can easily hit you with their elbows. In addition, flight attendants with trolleys cause inconvenience during the flight.

Row 57,58: located at the rear of the cabin. The proximity of onboard kitchens, utility rooms and other technical spaces is inconvenient. They have restrictions in reclining the backrests or are completely blocked.

Experienced travelers do not recommend choosing rows 13,14,12. Due to restrictions on backrest deflection and the presence of a kitchen in the immediate vicinity.

From approximately rows 20 to 39, portholes may be missing in some places. This is a big minus for some travelers. For accurate information about the availability of a window, it is better to consult a company representative before purchasing a ticket.

Before making a purchase, pay attention to the following nuances:

  1. Study the interior layout and then make a purchasing decision;
  2. Do not take seats in the back of the plane, except for rows 40-41, which are suitable for those traveling in pairs;
  3. Avoid places near toilets due to unnecessary noise and queues;
  4. Buy tickets in advance to be able to choose the best seat. An additional bonus will be a lower price.

Passenger airliners of the Boeing 777 family (Boeing T7, Boeing Triple Seven) are designed to carry cargo and passengers (depending on the model and cabin layout, the Boeing 777 is capable of carrying 300-550 passengers) on long-haul routes. As the largest twin-engine passenger jet, the Boeing 777 holds the ETOPS accident flight record (the Boeing 777-200ER spent 177 minutes in the air with one engine running). Naturally, all routes for flights operated on Boeing 777 aircraft are planned taking into account the requirements of ETOPS (Extended-range Twin-engine Operational Performance Standards), which increases passenger safety. The base model of the family was the Boeing 777-200 airliner, which was completely designed using the CATIA three-dimensional computer system. The Boeing 777-200 airliner made its first flight in 1994 and entered United Airlines for commercial operation in May 1995. The Boeing 777-200 airliner is capable of carrying from 305 (the Boeing 777-200 cabin layout has 3 classes) to 400 (the Boeing 777-200 cabin layout has 2 classes) passengers over a distance of up to 9695 kilometers. British Airways became the owner of the first Boeing 777-200ER (Extended Range) airliner on February 6, 1997. By increasing the take-off weight (fuel reserves), the Boeing 777-200ER was able to perform direct flights over a much longer range. The ability of the Boeing 777-200ER airliner to transport from 301 (the Boeing 777-200ER cabin layout has 3 classes) to 400 (the Boeing 777-200ER cabin layout has 2 classes) passengers over a distance of up to 14,260 kilometers has made it one of the most sold passenger aircraft in the world. On May 21, 1998, Cathay Pacific became the owner of the first copy of the new Boeing 777 family aircraft - the Boeing 777-300 airliner. Having received a fuselage extended by 10 meters from the base model, the Boeing 777-300 airliner, capable of carrying up to 550 passengers in a single-class configuration over a distance of 11,135 kilometers, thanks to greater efficiency, began to successfully replace the outdated Boeing 747-100 and 747-200. In February 2006, Boeing aircraft manufacturers handed over to an air carrier from Pakistan their next new product - a long-range airliner Boeing 777-200LR (Longer Range), called Worldliner. As of 2006, the Boeing 777-200LR Worldliner was a passenger airliner that could operate direct flights on the longest routes. Despite the fact that the Boeing 777-200LR Worldliner could indeed fly between any two airports in the world, the design features (the presence of only two engines) and ETOPS safety requirements did not allow for the full implementation of all the capabilities built into the Boeing 777-200LR Worldliner by the manufacturer , which is capable of carrying 301 passengers (the Boeing 777-200LR Worldliner cabin layout has 3 classes) over a distance of 17,500 km! The Boeing 777-300, which received a number of design changes and the most powerful GE90-115B jet engines in the world (among passenger airliners), but under the name Boeing 777-300ER (Extended Range) was transferred to Air France on April 29, 2004. Thanks to its characteristics, the Boeing 777-300ER in 2010 became the best-selling model produced by Boeing. It should be noted that at the moment, the Boeing 777-300ER airliner, capable of carrying 365 passengers over a distance of 14,685 km, is the best-selling passenger airliner of the Boeing 777 family. On January 29, 2014, Boeing put into operation 1 Boeing 777- 300ER of Aeroflot airlines. Due to the widespread use of Boeing 777 airliners in the fleets of various airlines, many airliners of this family constantly operate and.

Passenger modifications of the Boeing 777 airliner:

  • Boeing 777-200 Cabin capacity from 305 (the Boeing 777-200 cabin layout has 3 classes) to 400 (the Boeing 777-200 cabin layout has 2 classes) passengers. The maximum flight range is 9695 km.
  • Boeing 777-200ER Cabin capacity from 301 (the Boeing 777-200ER cabin layout has 3 classes) to 400 (the Boeing 777-200ER cabin layout has 2 classes) passengers. The maximum flight range is 14260 km.
  • Boeing 777-200LR Worldliner Cabin capacity is 301 (the Boeing 777-200LR Worldliner cabin layout has 3 classes) passengers. The maximum flight range is 17,500 km.
  • Boeing 777-300 Cabin capacity 368 (Boeing 777-300 cabin layout has 3 classes), 451 (Boeing 777-300 cabin layout has 2 classes) or 550 passengers (Boeing 777-300 cabin layout has 1 class). The maximum flight range is 11135 km.
  • Boeing 777-300ER Cabin capacity is 365 (the Boeing 777-300ER cabin layout has 3 classes) passengers. The maximum flight range is 14685 km.
