There are two versions of this configuration. They have the same number of seats in each cabin, however the rear lavatory configuration is different.

United's website now refers to these configurations as Version 3 and Version 4.

Version 3: United Domestic 777 "High Density" Configuration ("Version 3")



Version 4: United Domestic 777 "High Density" Configuration ("Version 4")

haven't seen it confirmed anywhere they're getting IPTE seats.

That makes 19 airframes I'll be avoiding unless I'm sitting up front. Especially on long haul flights.

Thanks for confirming that. Don't recall it spelled out like that in one post.

Jose already confirmed that the sUA 777 BF seats are what will be used in the Hawaii fleet. IDK how to quote from another thread, but this is what Jose said in the 2016 fleet update in post 269:

"Someone posted the configuration in another thread anyhow the first 3 rows will be 2x4x2 AB DEFG KL last row will be 2x2 AB GALLEY KL. All rows will be relettered so that the RH side window seat ends with "L" The BF seats found on the 3 cabin 777s is what's going to be used on the reconfigured domestic 777s."

Or, even easier, hit the "multi quote" button there and then the reply button here. Below the reply box will be a link to include the extra quoted post in the reply.

Nope, all economy seats 10 across, including E+, and including the new 777-300s when they get here.

But I'd take lie flat 8 across over barcaloungers.

If my calculation is correct, there will be 28 BF and 336 Y/E+ seats for a grand total of 364 seats. This is equivalent to 2 739s or A321s. Yikes

Which is, you know, kind of the point of this fleet.

Ouch. This is not a change I like. Hope they can keep the 767s flying for another decade!

The 767 has always been my favorite TATL ride out of IAD, and with the ruinous alteration of the 777s, that will be even more so.

UM, no word on re-configuring Int'l 777 fleet, at least not so far. But 2-3-2 still beats 3-3-3 in back.
