The Japan Airlines Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner carries 186 passengers across Business + 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 18A, 18C, 18D, 18E, 18F, 18G. Another 40 seats are rated best or good. The map marks 16 seats with extra legroom.
Seats rated avoid on this map are 25A, 25C, 25D, 25E, 25F, 25G. Another 12 seats are rated avoid. These are usually the back rows near the galley and lavatories, or middle seats with no window or aisle.
Business is a two-two-two staggered configuration. The stagger means every other seat has a slightly different position relative to the aisle and window — some feel more private, others have easier aisle access. Study the specific layout on the seat map before picking.
In Economy, two-four-two abreast means eight seats across the fuselage — one fewer per row than nine-abreast, which translates directly to wider seats. Combined with the Dreamliner's higher humidity and lower cabin pressure, the physical experience is generally more comfortable than legacy widebodies.
Yes — the 787 is known for its electrochromic dimmers instead of pull-down blinds, and the windows themselves are significantly larger than on older widebodies. Window seats in Economy are genuinely pleasant on daytime routes for this reason, not just for the views.
