777-200 Lavatory
 
We’re flying AA7 DFW-OGG first class on the 777-200 in March. My husband is disabled and will sometimes need assistance in the restroom. I know there’s an accessible restroom but I want to confirm where so we can sit accordingly. Is the larger lavatory between 5A and 7A?

There is a larger lavatory between 2 biz cabins on the A side. There is a sliding door and plenty of space

Second @gateH15. This one.

7A and 7D are the most convienient.

Note that AA has sometimes sent the 77W to Hawaii and on this aircraft, the accessible lavatory is actually on the right side. If you need to go in the lavatory with your husband, try to give the flight attendants advance notice... last year, a couple almost got arrested for going into the lavatory together after they decided to practice the horizonal mambo onboard and the crew had no patience for such behavior.

What was the crime? I am not aware of any federal law against 2 people in a restroom at the same time.
How did the FA know one of them wasn't assisting the other? Do we now have to request permission from the FA before going to the lav together?

It will be very obvious that you are assisting your husband. No need to notify a flight attendant. Have a safe and wonderful trip.

For what it's worth I was in 7J on a 77W over Christmas and explicitly remember the extra large lav being on the J side just a few rows up from me.

That’s correct on the 777-300 (77W). But, per the OP’s question, on the 777-200 the larger lav is definitely on the A side.

I'm not aware of any airline allowing sexual activities in lavatories and that couple was quite loud so...

I was referring to 2 people simply going into the lav together do not require the permission of a flight attendant.
If I am assisting someone who needs to be assisted in a lav, I certainly don't feel the need to ask an FA.

Does anyone know which lav is accessible in the F cabin on the 77W? Thanks for your help so far!

I recall a time when assisting my elderly mother to the lavatory and waiting outside for her to finish (she was legally blind and couldn't see the lock – so the door was open - and often had trouble finding the flush button), an FA scolded me for "loitering" in the area. (I had previously explained the situation in full to the FA in our area, but she was in the galley at the time.) The FA was rude and threatening, but fortunately before I could even respond the FA I had previously spoken with ran over and told her to back down. Some FAs have no business being in the position, but they, IME, are in the minority. (btw – no apology or anything from the overzealous FA.)
