Back when I was flying AA 777s a LOT (late '90s through early '00s), First Class was 4 rows, 6 across, 2x2x2. Lie flat, but zero privacy. 4A and 4B were reserved for pilot rests. I always took an inside aisle seat so, no one was climbing over me in the middle of the night. Business class was 7 across, 2x3x2 with cradle seats (max. 55° of recline). Things have sure improved!
Thank goodness a lot of that was before I was even alive lol, now 1-2-1 and fully lie flat has become the industry standard. Some airlines still do 2-3-2 on their older products, for example Turkish airlines, emirates, and even Lufthansa on the 747-400s. However, good thing American does not. I fly on their 777s quite a bit and each one is still enjoyable
I’ve flown the 777-300 ER but in business. I like 3J in the 2 Row mini cabin. I don’t think the AA service and food in First is as polished so I fly BA First to DFW on the A380. I’ll fly AA business over BA business anytime.
@@realman6ft6I agree. There is barely any difference between Business and First on the 77W the way I see it. Only differences I see are the extra legroom and the rotating chair in First. Except for those, the seats are just as good as Business. I was actually supposed to be in Business this flight but got a good offer to upgrade so I took it. I also like how private the mini cabin feels so I see where you’re coming from
if I get lucky enough sometimes I see it from out of the window, if not, I get the first coordinates of the flight from Flightradar24, plug them into google maps, and then use a picture of a map of the airport to figure it out
Nice review, thanks! Question for anyone: Flagship is the 1st two rows. How is the noise factor from the galley? Also.....wouldn't there be tons of passenger traffic has so many people might opt to walk to those restrooms? Thanks
Thanks for this question! It might be bothersome for seats 1G and 1J, but I did not notice anything. I've been on this plane in business class and attempted to use the restroom in front, but flight attendants have stopped me, given that that restroom is for First Class
How soft was the bedding? and... was the "lie flat bed" even or uneven in the middle? I heard complaints in AA Business that the bedding is hard and there is an uneven crease where the top & bottom portions of the seat meet when it is in the lie flat mode. Thanks for any help!
