The El Al Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner carries 293 passengers across Business + 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 31A, 31B, 31D, 31E, 31H, 31K. Another 67 seats are rated best or good. Look for 27 extra-legroom seats for the most room.
Seats rated avoid on this map are 45A, 45B, 45C, 45D, 45H, 45J. Another 46 seats are rated avoid. These are usually the back rows near the galley and lavatories, or middle seats with no window or aisle.
It kept the cabin of its previous operator rather than being refitted. Business is six across in pairs, premium economy is a pitch upgrade on economy-width seats and the whole aircraft carries more seats than the airline's standard 787-9.
The beds still go flat and the cabin is still up front; what you lose is universal aisle access, since window seats step over their neighbour. Solo travellers should hold out for an aisle seat here, or for the airline's other Dreamliners.
A legroom product. The pitch advantage over economy is real, but the seat is no wider, so anyone buying premium economy for shoulder room will not find it here. Price it as extra legroom plus a smaller cabin, not as a halfway business class.
The layout gives it away at a glance: business in pairs and a premium economy set deeper into the aircraft mean this fit, while solo business seats mean the standard one. Your booking's seat selection screen shows the difference immediately.
The scattered window seats where seat and glass fail to meet, one windowless spot near the rear and the final rows by the lavatories. The per-seat notes carry each of them.
