Exactly, having someone step over me once maybe twice has never registered on the annoyance scale.

Thank you for the additional feedback. I stuck with 16A on the outbound and moved to 16K for the return. Window seats and I don’t have to step over anyone. For some strange reason, bubbles go right through me! 😜

Great seat. My favourite in J on a 77W.
My seat buddy in 16B wasn't too impressed on a night flight once with the light from the toilet door being opened and closed flooding the darkened cabin but in the window and hunkered down it really wasn't of any issue... I suspect they were being overly sensitive for some ex-gratia Avios! 😂

Thats what eye masks are for! I have a few pairs where the eye coverings curve outwards like a mini bra that are super comfortable in that my eyelashes don’t catch/rub on the material when blinking. Coupled with a pair of Bose noise cancelling headphones and I’m in my own little world.

As noted in the September schedule changed thread, I’ve been switch from a 77G to a 77L, so I’ll take that as a win as it has been retrofitted with club Suites. I’ve been dumped into 1K for both my flights. Looking for a bit of feedback here, especially on the overnight flight.

According to the aerolopa site, service is out of the front galley and there are also two loos at the front, so to me 1A/K are probably not the best seats for sleeping. Might 5K be a better option here? Further away from the galley and rows 6 and 7 are more likely to use the loo behind them.

Thanks

Yes.

The BA Source [thebasource.com] to close 30th June 2021

Try aerolopa instead.

On the 77J (three class, WT starts at row 16) are the basinet seats preferable to the exit row (26) in terms of forward space? Currently on the latter, just wondering if it's worth the trouble of calling 36 hours ahead for the former or if I'm better off staying where I am.

Any ideas which seat might be decent on these 777 flights?
CW overnight, and WT+ daytime / evening.

Could some please help me with seat 7E on the 77M configuration.

Since I'm new I'm not allowed to post a picture or URL link. I'm looking at aerolopa site for the BA 77M.

Can anyone confirm that the toilets are behind the exit row and not directly next to seat 7E

Does anyone know what is the "grey box" where seats 8A and 8E would have been? Galley, crew seats?

Any thoughts on this seat would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Hello ​​​​​​mbd737 and welcome to FlyerTalk. Let's ask the brains behind Aerolopa for a definitive answer.

Calling Prospero ...

The dark grey filled elements surrounding doors 2L/2R are galley modules. As the entire Club cabin is serviced from what is a compact galley, I can only imagine how busy this area can be during meal service times. The blue filled elements represent lavatories.

Thanks for the info.

Any truth to the rumor that rows 1 & 2 on this configuration 77M are now club world seats and not first class?
