Frequently asked
How many cabins does the Riyadh Air 787-9 have?
This flagship fit has three: lie-flat business class, a dedicated premium economy and a long economy cabin. It is the fuller of the airline's two 787-9 layouts, aimed at the marquee long-haul routes.
Is business class on this 787-9 lie-flat?
Yes. Business is a proper lie-flat product, the seat you want on any overnight sector, with direct or near-direct aisle access depending on the row. The front rows behind the nose tend to be the quietest of the cabin.
Is premium economy worth it over economy?
Premium economy is a real middle tier with wider seats, more pitch and more recline than the back cabin. On a long holiday or leisure sector it is the sensible compromise when lie-flat is out of reach.
Where are the best economy seats?
Aim for the forward economy rows away from the rear galley and lavatory cluster, and choose a window seat clear of the wing box for the cleanest Dreamliner views. Bulkhead rows trade seat-front stowage for extra foot room.
