Which one will we be able to use? Thanks I'm old and won't be able to hold it for more that eight hours.
Hello…
The 777-300 is a bit of a pain in the proverbial when it comes to toilets.
When you are in the WT+ cabin, you will see 4 bathrooms directly in front of you at the front of the cabin, and these are the ones which are not for your cabin, they form the divide between the Club World and World Traveller Plus cabin, but are for the Club World cabin. If the crew do it, which they should, there are silver ropes which should be put across the aisle at that point, which indicates that you are not to pass this point… (And, yes, there is an emergency break point in the rope, as was asked by a passengers on another aircraft type which has them the other day…).
The bathrooms for the WT+ cabin are rearward in the aircraft, at the next set of doors down, so not too far away and there are 3 located there, of which there is one on the A/B seating side of the aircraft which is a very large disabled access bathroom.
So, please do not be perturbed if you are asked by the crew to use the bathrooms behind your cabin, not the ones directly in front of you. Not a great layout at all, and we crew have said from the outset that it was going to be a pain in the backside, and it is, on every flight.
Hope you enjoy your trip.
