Boeing 747-400
Let us consider in more detail the scheme of the Boeing 747-400 cabin (the number of seats in the cabin is 552). The aircraft has two decks (upper and lower).
On the upper deck from the first to the third row there are business-class seats. There is everything in order for a person to settle in comfort:
- VIP seats with automatic levers;
- a variety of drinks and food (any cuisine);
- polite and nice staff;
- cleanliness both in the cabin and in the toilet;
- provision of medications if necessary;
- individual approach to each of the passengers.
Starting from the fifth row, economy class seats are located. They are also quite comfortable, but no frills.
As for the ninth row of the aircraft, it belongs to the economic class. The seats located in this row are less comfortable due to the fact that there is a deck and a restroom not far from them (this can cause discomfort during the flight).
On the lower deck there are 470 seats, they belong to the tourist class. When buying a ticket, some important aspects should be considered:
- In rows 10, 11, 12, 2-3 places are located. Of all the places on the lower deck, these places are recognized as the most comfortable.
- The 19th row is close to the emergency exit, which is not very convenient for a long flight.
- Rows 20, 21 and 22 - toilets are located nearby.
- 29 - emergency exits are located nearby.
- 31, 32, 33 and 34 rows are quite comfortable, except for the places that are located at the stairs.
- 43, 70, 54 and 71 rows - next to the emergency hatches, which do not allow the backs of the seats to unfold.
- 44, 55 rows have a large legroom. The only negative is the close location of the latrines.
- From 67 to 70, it’s comfortable to travel in a couple, as there will be no strangers nearby. The downside is the proximity of the toilets.
