Seat Selection Overview

The Boeing 777-200ER is the mid-range variant of the Triple Seven, flying routes up to 7,700 nautical miles. It uses the same wide fuselage as the 777-300ER but seats about 50–80 fewer passengers. Many airlines are retiring their 777-200ERs in favor of 787s and A350s, but it's still common on transatlantic routes.

Best Seats on the 777-200ER

• Window seats A & K in economy: Same as 777-300ER — avoid the center 4-pack at all costs. Window seats in the 3-seat sections give you one neighbor and a view.
• Exit row seats (especially forward exit rows): The 777-200ER's exit row seats offer 38–42 in of pitch. The forward exit rows (typically around row 20) are best.

Seats to Avoid on the 777-200ER

• Center section D, E, F, G: The 3-4-3 layout's center seats are the same problem as on the 777-300ER. On a 10-hour transatlantic flight, a center middle seat is extremely uncomfortable.

Pro Tips

• United and American still fly 777-200ERs on transatlantic routes. Check the seat map before booking — some have been retrofitted with newer interiors.
• The 777-200ER is gradually being replaced by 787-9 and 787-10 aircraft. If given the option on the same route, the 787-9 offers better passenger comfort.
