British Airways Boeing 777-200ER (777-200 with First, 237 seats)

237 seats: 48 good, 20 mixed, 13 to avoid

Best seats

  • Row 2, seats A and K (First): set back from the aisle, so it is more private
  • Rows 6–7 and 10–17, seats A and K (Club World): set back from the aisle, so it is more private
  • Row 25, seats D, E, F and G (World Traveller): exit row on BA's map with open floor in front of the door: lots of legroom, though people pass through to the door and lavatories.
  • Row 26, seat A (World Traveller): no seat in front: BA's map has no seat 25A, so there is more room for your legs.

Seats to avoid

  • Row 8, seat K (Club World): next to a galley, with light and noise during service
  • Row 24, seats A, B, D, E, F, G, J and K (World Traveller Plus): last row of World Traveller Plus, with lavatories drawn right behind it: expect queues and galley noise.
