Questions and Answers

I am planning to fly on BA’s first class. I have 3 options: Boeing 777, 789 and 747. Which do you think has the best seating?

Well, their 789 has the newest First Class seat so I’d recommend that. However, flying in the nose of a 747 is always fantastic, so I’d recommend that if you’ve never done it before.

I would say the best is the 789. There are only 8 seats in the cabin. So the service seems more personal and the cabin is much more quiet than in 747 and 777. The only downside is 1 restroom shared between the first class cabin and the pilots. I only had an issue once. In that case you can go the business cabin right behind first class.

The only reason to fly in the 747 first class cabin is nostalgia or if is the only first class availability. The seats are cramped and seem to have not aged well.

The 747 and 777 due have a “buddy” seat if you are flying with a companion to use when dining, the 789 does not have this “buddy” seat.

Thank you all for your opinions!
