Boeing 777-200 of Nordwind Airines

If you are flying Nordwind

Nordwind Airlines has two Boeing 777-200 aircraft in its fleet, in the 777-200ER configuration, which includes 393 seats, divided into business and economy classes. Below is a diagram of the Boeing 777-200 cabin and best places in the salon that are worth choosing.

Nordwind Airines Boeing 777-200 cabin layout

This modification of the cabin provides the following breakdown of seats by row: three in the first row, three in the last and four seats in the middle. Toilets are located at the beginning and end of the cabin, there are two bathrooms in different parts of the cabin, utility and kitchen facilities are located at the head and tail of the aircraft, one kitchen is located in the middle of the cabin. There are only six seats in business class, all located at the front of the cabin. Economy class starts from the fifth row.

The fifth and sixth rows of seats are good in their own way, but there is also a fly in the ointment. The downside of these seats is that in front of you there will be a blank wall separating business class from the rest of the cabin. In addition, you won’t be able to stretch your legs, there simply won’t be enough space, and the dining table will have to be taken out of the armrest. But in front of you there will be no annoying neighbors who would recline their chairs. The same advantages and disadvantages are observed throughout the 20th row, as well as on places D-G the twenty-first row, but instead of the business class wall, there will be a toilet in front of you.

Business class aircraft

Rows twelve to fourteen (except three last places in row 12) have a small radius of chair back adjustment because they are located next to the kitchen. In rows 38 and 39 the same problem is observed, only the reason is the proximity of the bathrooms. Another disadvantage of the close location of the WC is the constant flow of passengers past your seat.

The seats in the 45th row are comfortable, since this is where the emergency exits are located, which means there is additional space. But the row 46 next to it is limited in maneuvers - again the proximity of the toilets is to blame.

The seats in the last rows from 54 to 56 are quite comfortable where there are two people. The fuselage narrows at the tail, so there are fewer seats. But rows 57 and 58 are an extremely bad choice. The seats do not recline, and there is a toilet and utility room behind.

Presented to you is a Boeing 777-200 Nord Wind, the cabin layout of which contains the best and not so good seat options. When buying a plane ticket, be sure to pay attention to what seat you are buying, don’t get into trouble - choose seats in which you will enjoy the flight.

Choosing Aeroflot aircraft

Aeroflot has at least thirteen such aircraft. The airline operates aircraft of the 777-200ER modification, the most modern of all existing ones.

The aircraft cabin is divided into three classes: business, comfort and economy, and can accommodate 402 people.

Toilets and galleys are located at the tail and head of the aircraft, as well as at the beginning, middle and end of the cabin. The seats are arranged according to the pattern: “three chairs-four-three chairs.” The fuselage tapering towards the tail suggests a two-four-two configuration. The most seats are in economy class, thirty are in business class, the rest of the seats belong to the “comfort” category.

When flying on a Boeing 777-200 (cabin diagram), the best seats are, of course, located in the classes top level. However, if your choice is economy class, then pay attention to the following rules for choosing a comfortable seat so that the flight brings you only joy.

Economy class starts from the 17th row, where it is quite convenient to fly, since there is an emergency exit in front of the seats, and this guarantees free space around. Two seats in the 18th row, namely C and H, are the most comfortable, as they are located far from the utility rooms, and there are no other seats in front of them.

The seat pitch in the economy row is 74 cm.

2 aircraft have a two-class configuration, and 8 have a three-class configuration.

These aircraft often fly on the following routes: Hanoi-Moscow, Ho Chi Minh City-Moscow, Nha Trang-Moscow.

Consider the interior of large aircraft. Their layout includes 54 comfort class seats, 25 business class seats, and 228 economy class seats.

Ask an airline employee for advice

If possible, carefully study the diagram of the airliner you will fly on.

Do not take seats where the seats do not recline or are limited in their ability to do so.

Do not take places near toilets, kitchens and other technical rooms at the very end.

1-4 r. Business Class. There is a small clarification for this class - the last row is located close to the galley, and the first row to the toilets. The proximity to any technical room is always caused by unnecessary fuss. They will often walk by, and the sounds and lights from the kitchen will not allow you to have a good rest if you are on an overnight flight.

10 rub. This is the first row of comfort class. let's designate it yellow for exactly the same reasons - the proximity of the galley and toilets.

20 rub. - first row economy. The distance to the wall that separates the service classes is quite large. Therefore, there will be enough space for knees and legs. Another significant advantage of this row: no one will recline the back of the chair. This is important when there is a small step between rows in economy class. Let's note one of the disadvantages is that you will have to watch the entire flight at the wall. Folding tables are also located in the armrests, so they are fixed.

24, 25 rub. there is no porthole. For some passengers, this circumstance is very important, especially during a long day flight. If you fly at night, this is not significant at all.

31 and 32 rubles, marked in yellow on the plan. Proximity to toilets is always fuss, inconvenience, walking around at night and during the day. Also, you will be accompanied by the sounds of the door and tank. Also, the backs of the chairs, which are located directly against the wall of the toilet, do not recline. It is very inconvenient to be in a vertical state for the entire flight (especially if it is long).

45 rub. There are emergency hatches in front of it. Safety approaches to them should be quite broad. Therefore, from the point of view of leg comfort, these are the best economy seats. But proximity to toilets reduces their overall level of convenience.

57 and 58 r. similar to the previous ones.

A couple of general points about the seat arrangement in the Boeing 777-200ER - their disadvantages and advantages.

1. The seats that are located next to the window have the advantage that you can look out of it during the flight (this, of course, depends on the flight time and weather). If you fly at night, this advantage does not count. Also, your neighbor will not bother you if he wants to get up. These places have one drawback - it is not very convenient to leave it yourself. Therefore, if you don’t need to go to the toilet often or you intend to sleep through the entire flight, choose seats by the window.

2. The seats located near the aisle have their own advantage - it is very easy to get up from if you need to go to the toilet. The disadvantages are that a neighbor may be disturbed if he needs to get up. Flight attendants with trolleys and passengers who walk through the cabin to the galley and toilets can also interfere. Therefore, if you are flying with a child and, most likely, you will have to go to the toilet often. Or you yourself need to go to the restroom more often, then choose from the edge of the seat.

Clear skies to you, as the pilots say, and a soft landing!

Many Russian companies for charter and regular flights purchased small but comfortable aircraft from the American company Boeing. Let's look at the cabin layout of the Boeing 777-200 (Vim Avia), and figure out which seats can be called the best and which are the worst. Divided interior of this aircraft into several parts, but all its seats have only one comfort class - economy class. The main differences between the places are the proximity of toilets, kitchens, partitions and emergency exits. They also note the convenience in those places where you can freely stretch your legs and lower the seat to a lying position.

Location of special premises

Before choosing a seat on a Boeing 777-200 (“Vim”), it is better to consider the cabin layout in advance. This will provide an opportunity to better understand where the service areas are located in the cabin. Two toilets are located in the bow and one in the middle. But here, too, there are differences in comfort.

The toilets at the beginning of the cabin are located behind a partition and do not actually interfere with passengers. There is also a kitchen in the bow, from which people can hear the noise of dishes and the smell of coffee. Another room is located at the very end, in the tail section, as can be seen in the diagram of the Boeing 777-200 cabin (Vim Avia). Also, after the 9th and 19th rows there are emergency exits, which also has its pros and cons, which we will discuss in more detail later.

Best places

The most comfortable seats are usually considered to be those located away from the office premises, where neither the sounds nor smells of the toilet and kitchen can be heard. Passengers with children, tall citizens with long legs, and people with problems should especially think about it when purchasing tickets. genitourinary system. Everyone on the Boeing 777-200 cabin diagram (Vim Avia) can preview and think through the seats that are convenient for themselves, depending on the needs and tastes of an individual person.

Some people like the very first row. Firstly, it is located right behind the cockpit, the toilet is not far, the kitchen is nearby, you can be the first to get food or coffee, chat with the flight attendants, but there is one “but”. On one of the armrests there is a small table that cannot be removed. It turns out that you cannot use one armrest. But passengers still like these seats because they can stretch their legs well. However, people are not advised to buy tickets near the aisle, since in the Boeing 777-200 from Vim Avia the cabin diagram shows that there are two toilets in the bow, but a queue for the bathroom can still form in the aisle.

In terms of seats, the 10th row is also considered good. Here on each side of the aisle there are not three, but only two seats. In front is the passage to the emergency exits. You can perfectly stretch your legs forward without disturbing anyone, stand up and go to the toilet, without disturbing anyone. However, even on such wonderful places there is one “but”. According to safety regulations, passengers with children are not allowed to sit in such best seats on the Boeing 777-200 cabin diagram from Vim Avia and take them with them. hand luggage, place your bag in the aisle. The emergency exit must be clear at all times. The bag will have to be kept on the top shelf above your head.

Average comfort places

The main part of the aircraft cabin has the usual standard seats with the same level of comfort. These are seats from the second to the eighth row, from the 12th to the 18th and from the 22nd to the 39th rows. One difference is a small feature of these aircraft. In the middle of the cabin (but, unfortunately, it is not known where exactly) there is one row, which does not have windows at two opposite ends. But many people do not call this a minus of the interior, apparently because they are afraid of heights, and there is less cold from the glass.

Worst places

Previously, we reviewed the best seats in the Boeing 777-200 cabin diagram from Vim Avia. It remains to understand which seats are considered uncomfortable? The seats in the 9th row are considered bad due to the fact that their backs do not recline for relaxation, since there is an emergency exit at the rear. For safety reasons, this is strictly prohibited so as not to block the hatches. In the 19th row, the principle is the same, however, there the seats can be lowered a little, but the backrest angle is minimal.

Seats at the end of the cabin are also considered bad. This is the last 40th row. The backs rest against the wall. Naturally, they don’t go down. Moreover, at the back of the plane there is a strong hum from the engines and it is much cooler than at the front.

Nordwind

The same Boeing 777-200 was purchased by another Russian airline entitled " North wind" This airliner has two types of seats - business class and economy. They were purchased for long flights and are designed to withstand heavy loads. It can carry up to 393 passengers.

Let's take a closer look at which seats are the best on the Boeing 777-200 cabin diagram from North Wind. Of course, the most comfortable seats are in business class. There are only 6 seats, a huge legroom - 127 cm. The seats are installed in pairs. After this class there is a dividing solid partition. Behind it is already the economy class.

The seats are arranged in three columns (3 - 4 - 3), with two aisles 74 cm wide between them. Passengers in the 5th and 6th rows cannot straighten their legs, and you don’t really want to look at the blank partition in front of your eyes the whole way. And here are the places in front emergency exits(12th and 14th rows, 38th and 39th rows) are always considered less comfortable, since their backs do not lower. The seats of the last rows also do not lower, they rest against the wall of the rear compartment, so it is better not to take the 57th and 58th rows, if possible. Especially if the flight is long.

Aeroflot

Finally, let's look at the best seats on the Boeing 777-300 cabin diagram from Aeroflot. For long-haul flights to America and China, the number of seats has been increased to 402. The cabin is divided into three classes: business, comfort and economy.

The comfort of the seats depends on the fundamental principles described earlier. We won't repeat ourselves. Let's consider the comfort class. Here, each person has his own lamp and monitor, and a folding table. The seat moves forward, which does not interfere with other passengers.

But the best seats in the Boeing 777-300 cabin layout from Aeroflot are the business class seats. A personal menu is provided, along with many additional options and entertainment. But the price, of course, is appropriate.

Northern Wind Airlines or Nordwind is popular among Russian passengers. The carrier offers flights at reasonable prices throughout the country and abroad. The company's fleet includes aircraft of many brands, but the most popular is the Boeing 777-200 (three aircraft in total).

Boeing 777-200 ER

Boeing appeared in 1994. Then many world airlines noticed them and purchased them for their fleet. Due to their good technical characteristics, the aircraft were used for medium and long-distance flights. Specifications:

• Length – 64 m.
• Wingspan – 60 m.
• Capacity – up to 400 people.
• Maximum speed – 965 km/h.
• The maximum flight range is up to 15,000 km.

Airplanes

We have three Boeing aircraft with tail numbers - VP-BJB, VQ-BUD and VP-BJF. Each aircraft has already served other companies, even Asian ones, more than once.

• VP-BJB. He began working in 1998 in the China Southern Airlines fleet, where he remained until 2013, and then joined Nord Wind.
• VQ-BUD. He also began flying in 1998 and changed several airlines, including Aeroflot and Vietnam Airlines. He joined the Northern Wind company in 2014.
• VP-BJF. A little younger than his brothers. In 2004 he joined China Southern Airlines, where he flew until 2013, and then moved to the current airline.

Each plane is supposed to use two classes - business and economy. By the way, Boeing's capacity exceeds 380 people, and sometimes reaches 400.

Interior layout

Although there are two service classes, business class most often has no more than 10 seats. In economy class, seating is most often arranged in a 3-4-3 configuration, which results in narrower aisles. In general, the aircraft interior looks like this:

At the tail of the plane, sometimes the seats are arranged in a “2-4-2” pattern, which means the aisle becomes wider. The plane has 4 exits, this factor should be taken into account when choosing the best seat in the cabin.

The business class seats are very comfortable, there is a lot of legroom, and the backrests recline at a wide angle. Economy class seats have armrests and the backrests recline in all rows, but not much in some. There is a dark colored carpet on the floor. Each chair has a reclining table, seat belts, and a pocket for personal belongings. Economy seats on a Boeing 777-200 Nord Wind look something like this:

The best seats on the plane

Best places:

• First row These are business class seats. Here the seats are arranged in pairs, the distance between the seats has been increased. The backrests can recline more and there is additional legroom. The seats themselves are more comfortable here than in the other class. They look something like in the photo:

• Fifth row. This is where economy class begins. The interesting thing is that in this row there are only central seats D to G. There are conveniences here: there will be a partition in front of you, not seats, which means that the seats will not recline towards you. But, on the other hand, because of the partition you won’t be able to spread your legs, and you’ll also have to look at the wall, because there aren’t even any windows nearby.
• Sixth row. This is the first row for economy class, where all the seats A through K appear. But the most comfortable seats here are the side ones - A, B, C, H, J and K. These seats have increased legroom, the partition will not confuse you. Plus, lunch will be served to you first, so you won't have to wait long.
• Rows 20 and 21. A bit similar to rows 5 and 6, but they are located not behind business class, but behind the toilet. There's a little more legroom, but the proximity to the restrooms might be a big drawback for some since there will be a lot of people walking around. There is also a buffet nearby, from where the smells of food can be heard, but for some this may be a plus.
• Rows 45 and 46. The same as the previous ones. There will be a wall in front of you and a toilet room next to it - all these are, of course, disadvantages, but the advantages include legroom and the absence of neighbors in front.

In general, all seats have their advantages and disadvantages, so there are almost no best seats without any disadvantages on the Boeing 777-200. Choose places that seem convenient for you. Perhaps a toilet located close to you is a plus for someone. In addition, some parts of the interior copy each other. Some rows have similar characteristics, so choose your seat based on your location on the plane. There is less motion sickness on the wings, and the tail section has a great view. Choose everything to suit your taste.

Nice places

The following places can be considered relatively good:

• Row 12, seats A to H. This is the last row in front of the kitchen, which means you may be allowed to recline the back more. Row 14 has similar properties. But these places are located in front of the emergency exit and toilet, so people will often pass by.
• Row 46, seats D - G. The row is located after the toilet, there is a little more legroom, but your eyes will rest against the wall.
• Row 53, seats C and H. This is the last row, where there are three seats, and these seats can recline the back more, but at the same time flight attendants or passengers can hit you, since the passage between the seats remains narrow.
• Rows 55 and 56. The seats are arranged in a “2-4-2” pattern; the most comfortable are the outer seats A, C, H and K. These seats are especially good if you are traveling together. The passage here widens a little.

These places also have their advantages and disadvantages, sitting here is good, but there may be some inconveniences.

Worst places

But here are the places that you should not choose under any circumstances:

• Rows 30-39. According to reviews from passengers, air conditioning does not always work here, which means it is stuffy. Not the best the best option for elderly passengers.
• Rows 38 and 39. You should not choose seats in the last row. Behind them is the wall of the toilet room, which means that the backrests will not recline all the way. In addition, due to your proximity to the restroom, people will crowd around you, and food and drinks will be served to you almost last.
• Rows 57 and 58. Although the side seats in these rows are arranged in pairs, there are still disadvantages. They are similar to 38 and 39 next to each other, there is a wall behind them, the backrests recline weakly, people often pass by, and noise will be created. In addition, these are the very last rows on the plane, if the exits do not open at the back, then you will be the last to leave.

You can survive the flight in any seat, but if the choice of seat is important to you, then you should not choose these particular seats.

Conclusion

North Wind Airlines is proud of its Boeing 777-200, because they are excellent carriers of passengers over medium and long distances. Comfort and convenience will accompany you throughout the flight, but try to choose the best seats that will be convenient for you. Choose the right part of the plane. Remember, the center seats are not the most comfortable, so if you don’t have time to choose a seat on the edge, you will most likely get a seat in the center row. Although such a flight is easy to survive, the main thing is to tune in to the beautiful things and think about the upcoming vacation.

The Nord Wind company will take you to your dream, because it has been flying flights for over 9 years and during this time has earned the love of its passengers.
