Current official 272-seat 787-9 V4 map: every seat identifier, Luxe/Business/Premium/Economy placement, Stretch and Skycouch blocks, exit row, bassinets, dimensions, screens and power.
Top-down/interactive schematic proves the row grid but not real window-to-seat alignment.

This is the only retrofit LOPA for Air New Zealand’s 14 existing 787-9s: the official programme notice says every aircraft is reconfigured to 272 seats, comprising 4 Business Premier Luxe + 22 Business Premier + 33 Premium Economy + 213 Economy. The V4 map is transcribed seat-for-seat. Thirty Economy Stretch seats in rows 34-36 and 37ABC resolve to N; the remaining 183 seats resolve to Y. Air New Zealand describes 13 Economy Skycouch blocks (three-seat blocks, not 13 seats), matching the 39 annotated seats here. Skycouch remains a note/zone on ordinary Economy seats. The current subfleet count is not published, so none is asserted. The airline’s July 2026 update confirms the existing 14-aircraft retrofit is still underway, while the two new-delivery 787-9s (the V3/V5 higher-premium layouts) are due only by year-end. Skynest is therefore not modeled in this currently flying retrofit. No 787 window grid is bound; all window-position alignments remain unknown.
