For couples who want to sit “together” in Polaris, even-numbered L seats combined with the odd-numbered F seat one lower in number (e.g. 10L/9F) gives some ability to see/talk across aisle because the openings line up almost exactly.

Standard size rollaboards can only be accommodated in overhead compartments along the window and not in the center bins.

Overhead compartment above 1A is limited to a small bag, and the slightly larger bin is shared with 2A and 2D, which may result in someone in the area putting the bag in row 3 or 4. Often, there is flight supplies stored in the bin above 2A and 3A as well - you can ask the FA to move them.

Misaligned window in the coveted window seats at 7A/L and 17A/L.

Only one window (close to monitor) at 11A/L.

No "front" window on 15A/L, but one next to head and a second useable when reclined.

Oxygen equipment is stored above 12A, which results in unusable bin space. (Note that bin space is pretty generous given spread of seats, so not likely to be a major issue).

No window at 18A/L

Thank you very much, dkc and fumje!

United High-J Window Alignment

Hey y'all, this is a rather silly trivial question, but I'm just curious if anyone might know what sort of window alignment there is for the seats 41 or 43 L at the back end of United's High-J 767. A couple of upcoming flights have had equipment changes from 777s to these particular 767s and I'm not at all bothered by now being at the back of the plane, but I do still enjoying looking out the windows. Thanks.

If it's an intl flight, these would be used for crew rest, I believe.

Its the A/B seats on rows 43 and 44 that are the crew rest seats on international flights. K/L seats are for rows 41, 42, 43 & 44 are standard economy.

Indeed, based on that aeroLOPA diagram, if you could snag 43 or 44 A/B, legroom is tremendous.

Which seat is better: Premium Economy or the Crew rest?
From the pictures it seems crew rest are larger and comfier, but older seats compare to PE!

Business class seating to Europe on 767-300

Traveling EWR- Europe on Polaris business class. What are best seat pairs for a couple? Confused if we should aim for just 2 window seats or a window and center seat. Best seat pairs please. Also do seat pairs on right and left side mirror each other? Do either of these configurations allow for any conversation? Flight is pretty wide open now.

Which 763?
How many rows of business class?

Honestly there is no great seats for couples conversation. Polaris seats are focused on individual privacy

That is the new Polaris seat. Honestly there are no seat pairs so I would take two windows.
