At the time of this writing (20 May, 2014) there are nineteen commercial airlines operating the Boeing 787-8s. The most important thing to you though is how is the interior configured. The table below gives you a peek at the Boeing 787 Dreamliner seating configuration.
What you will see is that for the most part 3-3-3 is the name of the game in Economy class. Thankfully all the airlines have stepped up their game and installed excellent inflight entertainment systems.
Most notable is ANA’s Business class configuration at 1-2-1 and 1-1-1 in alternate rows. I can’t wait to see it in person as the photos don’t really do it justice at all.
You can find more details about Qatar Airways‘ and All Nippon Airways‘ interiors from my previous reviews.
