I believe Seatguru only provides the layout and  positives and negatives on individual seats in any given class. Doesn't tell me a whole lot on the actual seat from what I can tell

I did find Dan's photos of the meals served on board.

Do u by any chance have a photo of the interior or can u describe to the best of your ability? How would you compare their product vs. competing american and european carriers?

Thanks for always being so helpful !!!

A few pics here when I flew it domestically: http://www.dansdeals.com/archives/14293

2-2-2 config so take a middle seat if you're solo.

Unfortunately, the only other biz products I've flown are RJ, LY, and short haul CX (w/ Haagen Daaz!!), so I can't do a good compare.

Middle because no strangers will be climbing over you and you won't have to climb over any strangers.

I think all bulkheads have the bigger footwell cutout, though other seats may as well.

If you board early it would be AWESOME if someone would be able to note exactly which seats have the big footwells as they make a huge difference in seat comfort.

Do you recommend front or back of cabin for a single traveler?

You mean to tell me they haven't updated their cabins since the continental days?

I'm not traveling solo and my wife likes a window...

As far as the bulkheads, none are available at this time.

If you have a chance to look them up on seatguru (united 777-200 version 5), would you take row 4 k & l, or row 10 a & b ?

Thanks Dan!

That post is less than 2 years old and the CO 777 upgrade was only completed in December 2010.
Aircraft cabins are updated perhaps once or maybe twice per decade.

I simply don't know which non-bulkheads have the larger footwells and I don't think the info is online.  If you are able to note the info I'm sure it would be appreciated by many.

The forward cabin will be further away from the coach bulkhead where babies are put.

Right now, I'm in 1K, which is the first row, aisle seat of a side pairing.
I guess I'll keep it. It'll get me off the plane faster as well.
