What Version of the 777-300ER?
Flying CGD to ATL on 4/9. Plane listed is AF 777-300ER but SeatGURU shows three different versions? Trying to see if 23 EF is an ok coach seat?
How do I tell which version I will be on? Yes I know it could change.
Thanks

23EF are in the middle section of the aircraft. If you want to be on the window side, I would look for a pair of AB or KL seats.

Along the same lines -- I'm a mainly DL flyer, taking advantage of the Canada business class fares. The AF and KL www site show the 777s I'm flying on to be either 2-2-2 (KL 867 AMS-KIX) or 1-2-1 (KL 2330 operated by AF HND-CDG). Both flights are 777-300s from the respective airlines. Seatguru shows old configured 777s -- 2-3-2 for both flights. I'm assuming that the AF and KL www sites are more updated, unless planes get subbed?
Thanks.

Does anyone know the seatguru seat map for AF 1583 CDG->MRU on 30 Aug?
The seat map on AF offers seats 12 - 14 as "economy front of cabin" but none of the seatmaps on seatguru show these seats as being available. Some configurations show these as premium economy or business.
This is the closest and recommended configuration:
http://www.seatguru.com/airlines/Air...htno=460&date=
But in this configuration row 12 is premium economy (AF is selling this as regular economy) and rows 12 and 13, which AF is selling as economy, are not available at all on this seat map).

The config you linked on Seatguru is certainly not this one, as it has P class and there is no P to MRU. The COI config is available on seatguru
http://www.seatguru.com/airlines/Air..._777-300_E.php
You mays also see the AF display in the wiki of this thread (scroll down the wiki to the bottom and the COI config is the one before the last one

Keep in mind that SeatGuru is poorly reliable for 772/77W AF cabin maps. Several AF configs are completely missing on Seatguru

I think MRU is normally served by the high density config (often referred on this forum as "COI" for Caribbean-Océan Indien. This one has only 2 rows of J followed by 4 rows of W and then a huge Y cabin starting at row 10. You may not have access to the front Y rows for seat selection, as they are reserved to Elites pax and becomes available to anyone only at check-in.

AF and KL websites do (as Expertflyer and some other websites). So you should get the new seats on both flights.
