Thanks for the reply, but that's a 757-200 (not 767).
I did check seat expert and they dont' even note the av boxes on the 763 or 762. so i don't trust their assessment from that aspect at all.
I'm just trying to figure out if seat guru is accurate in this respect for a 762. (i hate finding out it's inaccurate the hard way.)

Sorry, clicked the hyperlink right above that. The power outlets shown usually result in the box under the seats. Not sure as I usually try to plan to have a seat with power.

Does the fact that my post got consolidated into the 763 thread mean the seats are the same on a 763 as they are on a 762?
I'm surprised noone know if there are those silly little plastic covered boxes under the middle seats on a 762. I know they are there on a 763 and they make life miserable.
Noone knows for sure?

In case anyone was wondering. The boxes are there.

Not sure if this is the right thread, but I was on a 767-300 from LAX to DFW and the window seats in row 30 are misaligned. I had to lean to see out, and mostly all you can see is the wing (this is not listed as a wing seat). Seatexpert and seatguru did not reflect this. I have seat 11A on my return flight, so I'll update this if that seat turns out ok.
Update: I'm in 11A now. The window is more severly misaligned than it was in 30J, but since there's no wing you can actually see more without having to lean than you would in a wing-window seat.
I also glanced at row 13 as I walked through the minicabin...no window at all!

Row 20 Bulkhead on 767-300?
For a long international flight (MXP-JFK) we currently have seats in the middle section, row 22. Row 20 A,B are available, but don't get the best reviews on Seatguru or Seatexpert.com.
Does anyone have a postive experience in those seats, especially for someone with long legs?
Thanks.

No. Quite simply, avoid! If you have short legs then you might be happy there, but if you are over 5'5 then I'd stick with your seats in the middle section and hope row 21 opens up nearer the flight.

Figured I'd resurrect this thread on the 763...
Need some advice/talking points for my wife. We're flying in Y on RDU-LHR via milesaver tix on a 763, and I've currently booked row 21 H/J both ways.
I've booked the seats for the legroom... however, my wife is pushing back because of the immovable armrest, as she says she won't be able to lean over and won't sleep as well (she doesn't know about the cold factor which also could be an issue).
Anyone else have this issue before? I don't think there's another decent seat on the plane, so if we give these up, we'd basically be in just a standard row with a paltry 30" pitch...
Any suggestions/advice?

keep the seats. She'll than you when she sees them compared to the others. Maybe bring a pillow to put on the arm rest so she can lean a little easier.

IMHO, those are the best econ seats you can reserve on the 763, esp. if you are tall. My advice: try to get an upgrade.

You aren't allowed to use blankets or jackets during the last hour of the flight. Yeah, it's really freaking cold there.
