The XiamenAir Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner carries 287 passengers across Business + Economy. Power is 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 41H, 41J. Another 8 seats are rated best or good. The map marks 18 seats with extra legroom.
Seats rated avoid on this map are 41A, 41B, 41D, 41E, 42A, 42B. Another 55 seats are rated avoid. These are usually the back rows near the galley and lavatories, or middle seats with no window or aisle.
Yes. The Super Diamond seats fold fully flat and every one of them opens onto the aisle, so nobody climbs over a neighbour. It is the strongest cabin in the airline's published fleet.
The window-side seats, which sit angled away from the aisle with the most privacy. The centre pairs suit couples; the forward rows board and clear first. Access is equal everywhere, so position and privacy are the only real decisions.
The bulkhead rows, and the front one is unusually generous, with more space to the wall than a typical bulkhead. The trades are the standard ones: trays in the armrest, no floor stowage for take-off, and bassinet positions that make these the family rows.
The bassinet mounts sit on the bulkheads at the front of each economy section, and those rows go early. Nearby seats hear more infant noise than mid-cabin, which cuts both ways depending on who is travelling.
One mid-cabin bulkhead window seat loses real width to an exit-door box, one rear window position has no pane, and a few windows sit behind the seat rather than beside it. The rows deepest in the rear section sit against the lavatories and galley. The map flags each seat.
