The Gulf Air Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner carries 282 passengers across Business + Economy. Power and Wi-Fi are available on this aircraft. Every seat is 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 20A, 20B, 20C, 20H, 20J, 20K. Another 37 seats are rated best or good. Look for 18 extra-legroom seats for the most room.
Seats rated avoid on this map are 21A, 21B, 21C, 21E, 33A, 33B. Another 35 seats are rated avoid. These are usually the back rows near the galley and lavatories, or middle seats with no window or aisle.
Falcon Gold on the 787-9 is the Apex Suite — a staggered two-two-two layout where every seat reaches the aisle without climbing over a neighbour. Alternating window positions are particularly private solo seats. It is not a one-two-one cabin, but the stagger achieves the same aisle-access result.
Economy is nine-abreast in a three-three-three layout, which is the standard 787 configuration and gives a comfortable seat width for long-haul flying. The 787 cabin also has a lower pressurisation altitude and higher humidity than older widebodies.
Extra-legroom seats are available toward the front of the Economy cabin across several rows. The cabin map shows the exact positions — worth selecting early on Gulf Air's longer Bahrain routes.
