Ba bisinessclass seat configuration
We're flying GOT-LHR-SFO-LAX/ LAX-LHR-GOT next year in business class.
When we reserwed our seats the seatmap at seatguru (I always check seatguru to get tips on good/bad seat reviews) was different from the seatmap at BA, we called BA and they confirmed that seatguru was inacurate.
Our longhauls are B777 and according to BA the seat configuration was 1- 2 - 1. Could that be the 777 with the new Club Suits?
We have booked directly with BA 👍

Hi
1 2 1 is the 777 club suite configuration.
the aircraft type could change between now and then. Ie it could go to an A380 which does not have club suites
Seatguru is not accurate

If you google Aerolopa the seat plans it has for Club Suite are accurate.

Looked through all the threads you kindly listed but don't see one that has pros and cons of various seats on Club suite layouts
Maybe its too soon for that kind of thing?
Thanks

Row 1:
Row 3, 4: A K have one window only
Row 5, 6: A K offset windows mean less than 2 full windows at seat
Row 7: A K have one window only
Row 8: A K offset windows mean less than 2 full windows at seat
Row 9, 10: A K have two windows
Row 11: A K have one window only (and great views of the wing/engine) Closest to door 2 if that is used to disembark. Be aware that the overhead bin has reduced space due to emergency items that are housed here (from this trip report)
Rear (Smaller) Cabin:
Note: some FTers have noted that vibrations in the rear cabin could make sleeping harder. corporate-wage-slave, bigmerv
Row 15:
Row 17: A K have one window only, should be best for the sleepers as only one window and most secluded space in the Club cabin. It has views of the wing/engine.
- A K have two windows
- 1K is a bassinet seat
- All seats in row 1 have storage spaces, flat surfaces used by crew and therefore potential activity by crew around seat area
- First row to get served food.

Yes, I certainly wouldn't use Seatguru as a definitive source - especially in determining the aircraft type on a particular route. It also has several misleading seat plans - but I still refer to it as one of the tools. There are some useful notes now and then and sometimes the user images are helpful. The seating guides on here and https://www.aerolopa.com are definitely better.
Even BA is not always totally accurate - I'm sure we all remember their 747 upper deck layout:
