Re: Internal shots of 777 Business/Premium/Economy

Looks pretty good. Just a pity VA don't fly to LAX direct from MEL.

Agree wholeheartedly - in fact I gave them LIFE after they canned direct MEL route - but then they produced new cabin and I want to try it so I was forced to UN-LIFE them!

i'm fairly confident the evac requirements/regulations have been met

I'm sure they have (wasn't suggesting otherwise) but interesting nonetheless.

//wanders off to scour interweb for exit regulations.....//

I think I can still see that gorgeous J class starry sky that I used to envy from way back in PE......

I find this shot interesting - it's basically between the exit doors, i'd have thought the stools / the amount the bar "sticks out" would be an issue with the crossover needing to be clear for evacuation?

I am yet to experience such pleasure

thanks for the link, a fun read. It looks good. I only flew VA777 J once and have avoided it since in favour of QF or NZ. This definitely looks worth a try.

Looking at the pics, Im wish the table would push all the way in because as a side sleeper, Im guessing Im going to be hitting that table a few times during the night.

Still can't find any real life reviews of the new PE cabin. Anyone got a trip coming up they might want to do a TR for us please?

Yep I had this problem on the A330. I couldn't swing from side to side without my knees hitting the table.

Also +1 for more PE details!

We're actually booked in PE for the outbound leg SYD-LAX but seriously hoping for our waitlisted upgrade. If all fails and we are designated our Row 16 A/C seats, I will bring you all into the cabin, LIVE ACTION PEOPLE!

Now taking orders for any particular shots of seat location, proximity to lavs, light emitting areas etc.............

 

[johnnyfive]

Yes please anything you can do from either class!

 

[BriarFlyer]

Subscribing for the PE report. Thanks Clipped Wings!

Well there's goes MY mission. Unless I add a musical score and Chris Hemsworth in the picture, I doubt that I can trump this magnificent link. Great stuff Jaspon, well done. Everything looks amazing!

Just attended the media 'launch' of the refreshed B777s at LAX, managed to grab some pics of premium economy - seriously generous pitch, seems a fine product - will post later this morning when I'm back at the hotel.

Newest PR shot of Premium (the new name for VA's B777 premium economy)

Any shots of economy? Especially rows 20 & 21? I have an interest.

OK, I think there may be an issue with 20H - I had it selected for both my upcoming flights but have been moved to 21C. 20H is now blocked.

I wonder if there are movement/lighting issues. ...

Nah, we tend to focus on the premium seating/cabins so didn't bother with Y pics.
