B777 Row 52...
 
Hi

I'm going to be flying from Chicago to Seoul in a couple of weeks and have a quick question concerning the layout of the Korean Air 777.
The seating configuration goes from 3-3-3 to 2-3-2 at row 52. Does anyone know if the window seat (A and J) on this row are pressed against the fuselage? Or if there is a gap?

I've flown Virgin and on the last few rows on their 747's the isle seats are lined up so there is a nice gap to put computer, books etc... wondered if it was the same with Korean.

Thanks in advance.

Pretty sure its pressed against the fuselage on the 777.

According to Seatguru, looks like you'll be up against the fuselage.

Call KE and see if they can move you forward. If you have any sort of Skyteam status, let them know and it may help open up better seats for you.

Thanks for the replies.

I think I'll stay with it. I prefer windows but hate climbing over people. Climbing over 1 person is better than climbing over 2!

It's my first flight with Korean so I have no status. But I have joined their miles program so at least I can change seats if I want to.

Can you change seats on-line less than 30 days if your skypass number is on file?

For a couple flying together, is row 52 preferred or is it too close to the toilets? In row 52, there would be no strangers sitting next to either person in the couple.

Personally, I always avoid the back couple seats. Side windows start to curve and the extra space around the seats - people congregate. And you're last off the plane which is NOT Fun for any lines and COVID procedures. Can literally make you wait hours by getting a seat in the back.
