September 4, 20223 yr JAL's 8 abreast seating for long haul flights and 9 abreast seating for short haul flights. https://simpleflying.com/japan-airlines-boeing-787-seat-configuration-guide/ Back in mid 90s when i was working for Air Research I was making a round trip flight from Denver to Los Angeles every two or three weeks. My home was Pueblo Colorado where I was working on the LIMRV at the DOT test track. But they had sent me to the Air Research plant in Torrance CA to work on a new linear induction motor they were testing for a Grumman test vehicle. Since I was an experience LIM tech I was sent out there to help out. I flew coach in a Continental DC-10 and always had a nice dinner on that flight each way. A choice of steak or chicken with the trimmings and later pie or ice cream for dessert. And a comfortable seat from which to dine. Now you are a cow or a steer crowded in to take as less space as possible with meager rations of peanuts and coffee. Although to be more or less fair i gotta say that the last time I flew, about three years ago, from Roswell to Charleston and back I sprung for first class and had pretty good food service, a comfortable seat, and an attentive flight attendant. I guess that is now a distant memory from the 'olden days' that weren't that long ago. Noel Edited September 4, 20223 yr by birdguy I gotta learn to proofread my posts before sending them. The tires are worn. The shocks are shot. The steering is wobbly. But the engine still runs fine.
