Airbus777
Boeing 777-300 operated by United Airlines may accommodate 366 passengers in three classes: polaris (business class), economy plus and economy.
Modern aircraft have sometimes been called computers with wings, and as far back as 1994, long before hacking became high on society’s list of everyday worries, Boeing engineers were having discussions about how to keep malicious software from being introduced into the data network of their newest marvel, the 777 airliner.

Emirates operates this 777-300ER aircraft model in three different configurations. This version operates in a two class layout. To verify the correct version of this aircraft at the time of booking or at online check-in, the following rows may be used as reference: Business Class are rows 1-6 and Economy begins row 8.
Polaris seats are seats of business class.
Polaris class contains 60 open suites with 180 degrees recline.
These seats are located in the first 18 rows of the airplane and are divided into two sections.
First section consists of 28 seats that are transformed into a flat bed. The noise from the galleys and lavatory located in front may cause discomfort to passengers of the seats of the 1st row.
The only disadvantage of the seats of the 6th-8th rows is close location of the galleys.
Behind the exit row the second section of polaris class seats is located. This section contains 8 rows of seats that have 1-2-1 configuration. Passengers tend to congregate in the area of the seats of the 9th row while waiting to use lavatories thus causing discomfort to passengers of the seats of the 9th row.
Missing windows make the seats 16A and 16L bad seats.
Noise from more crowded economy plus section will cause inconvenience to passengers of the seats of the 18th row.
Economy plus class may accommodate 102 passengers on standard seats that have 4 inches recline. These seats are also located in two sections. First section consists of 4 rows of seats that have 3-4-3 configuration. Passengers of the seats of the 19th row will take advantage of extra space for their legs. These seats are considered good seats. However, there is no floor storage for these seats during take-off and landing and the tray tables located in the armrests slightly reduce the width.
Location of the lavatories located behind is the main disadvantage of the seats of the 22nd row.

The second section of economy plus seats contains 52 seats that are located in 6 rows. Thanks to the exit row located in front the seats of the 24th row offer extra legroom. Among disadvantages of these seats: location of the galleys and lavatories in front, lack of floor storage during take-off and landing and reduced width because the armrests are immovable. Because of missing windows the seats 24A and 24L are considered bad seats.

Economy class offers 204 standard seats that have 3 inches recline. These seats are located in 2 sections. First section contains 10 rows of seats. All these seats are standard only the seats of the 37th row are less reclining than standard and are located close to the lavatories.
Second section of economy class seats is located behind the exit row. The seats 39ABC, 39JKL and 40DEFG are the seats of economy plus class. Passengers of these seats will feel comfortable thanks to additional space for their legs. Protrusion of the exit doors may cause discomfort to passengers of the seats 39A and 39L but proximity of the lavatories and galleys to passengers of the seats 39BC and 39JK. All the seats of the 39th row have no floor storage during take-off and landing and are a little narrower than standard because the tray tables are built-in the armrests.
As there are no seats behind the seats 49C and 49J are often bumped by other passengers and crew members passing by.

Location of the galley and lavatories behind the seats 51D and 51G may represent a problem for passengers of these seats.

Limited recline, limited space in overhead bins as well as proximity of the galley and lavatories make the seats 51AB, 51KL and 52DEFG bad seats.
