Everything You Want to Know About Where to Sit on 763 / 76Q (30/24/32/117) Polaris+PP

Are there any economy seats to avoid on the 767-300? I'll be flying UA847/846 and selected 32L/30A.

Flying in a couple weeks. Partner is in 9L. Options for me are 2D, 3F, 9F, 10D or 10A. Which would be best?

9F would give you easiest access to partner, plus not a slanty seat!

7L just popped up. But per this thread it doesn't seem to be a great choice given no window? Stick with 9F?

It's missing a window, not totally absent them.

I would move. You'd be a bit farther from partner, but to me 9F to 7L is an improvement.

From a privacy point of view any odd A/L seat beats any F seat hands down. Personal choice is odd A seats first, odd L seats next, F seats after that...

3A or 9L for solo? Pretty much equivalent? TIA.

I dont think this is the right thread BUT we are looking into the 763 IAH to SJU in Feb. I know its not this version but cannot find the right thread...
At any rate, good mileage redemption into F for this leg....do any of these seats lend themselves to being able to chat with family, even if have to lean, etc. Wife and I will probably like the quiet time but kids may want to talk a bit.
Feel free to move to correct thread if need be. Thx

Odd to have a Polaris seat aircraft on that route but is the 76Q (so will move to that thread). Being Polaris seating, privacy is the focus, not family or couples seating

763s are 1-1-1 seating so there is an aisle between all seats and when in the seating position there is a wall between the passenger and aisle. So you need to get out of the seat to talk. Front to back might work for kids standing in seat looking back but other passenger might frown on this

This view might help, https://www.aerolopa.com/ua-76q

Does E+ in Row 30 not recline on this plane since 31 is an exit row?

Do the bulkhead seats, 1F and 1L in this configuration have wider footwells?

Yes. 1A does too, but likely it's not an option for your flight.

Thankfully it is still available, thank you for confirming!
