The Air Premia Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner carries 344 passengers across Premium Economy + Economy. Power and Wi-Fi are available on this aircraft. Seats are rated below, so you can see which have the legroom, the window alignment and the quiet — and which sit next to a galley or lavatory.
The seats rated best on this map are 11D, 11E, 11F. Another 7 seats are rated best or good. Look for 15 extra-legroom seats for the most room.
Seats rated avoid on this map are 9A, 9B, 9C, 10A, 10B, 10C. Another 60 seats are rated avoid. These are usually the back rows near the galley and lavatories, or middle seats with no window or aisle.
This fit trades premium economy rows for a longer economy cabin, giving Air Premia a higher-capacity aircraft for its busiest routes. Premia 42 keeps the same layout and pitch band as the airline's other fits; there is simply much less of it, so it sells out sooner.
Yes, arguably more so: it remains the only step up on an aircraft that has no business class, and the small cabin is the quietest space on board. Book it early, because a few rows of premium seating on a long-haul route do not stay available for long.
The forward rows just behind the premium cabin, which board and disembark fastest, and the bulkhead rows at the section breaks for legroom. Window seats away from the marked misaligned positions get the full benefit of the Dreamliner glass.
Length. The last rows sit a very long way from the exit doors, hard against the aft galley and its lavatory queue, and they leave the aircraft last after everyone else has filed out. On a fit this dense, that corner is the weakest place to spend a long-haul flight.
