    Official Boeing 787-9 Layout 3 seat map: Business and Economy seat identifiers row by row; front/rear Economy zones; bulkheads, bassinets, galleys, toilets and doors. Enumerating the published seats yields 28 Business / 307 Economy = 335.

    Retrieved through Wayback raw snapshot 2025-12-06 because the live Etihad PDF timed out. The PDF has no numeric capacity table; totals are exact enumerations of the seats drawn. The schematic does not prove window alignment or numeric seat dimensions.

How this map was built

Etihad current fleet page publishes this as Boeing 787-9 v3 / Layout 3. Transcribed row by row from the official PDF. BUSINESS: diagonally drawn 1-2-1 rows 5-11 (A,D,G,K), 7x4=28; the hardware maker/model is not named in the cited sources. ECONOMY: front rows 15-34 are 20x9=180; rear row 35 has D/E/G (3), rows 36-48 are 13x9=117, and tapered row 49 has B/C/D/E/G/H/J (7), giving 127 rear and 307 total. The dark seats with a black cap are explicitly keyed as Bulkhead, distinct from the separate Extra legroom and Standard legend entries; they remain canonical Economy and carry a qualified bulkhead note rather than being promoted to a separately sold tier. windowAlignment stays unknown for window positions because the top-down schematic does not prove window-to-seat alignment. Numeric seat dimensions, wing range and per-tail assignment are not published in the cited map. No aft galley symbol is drawn on the saved Layout 3 PDF; two aft lavatories, an unlabelled seated/kneeling human figure and Door 4 are shown; the figure's function remains unknown. Exact seat-facing orientation is unspecified; diagram shapes are schematic. Editorial precautions reflect drawn bulkheads and immediate monument proximity, not measured clearance or an airline rating. Rendering geometry is unspecified; native diagrams establish seat letters and schematic shapes but not a named hardware or exact-facing guarantee. October 4 methodology re-review supersedes prior immediate adjacency claims across entry vestibules or intervening monuments; historical source observations/changelog remain preserved. Only direct native service-bank relationships retain service-area quality cautions. Bulkhead and extra-legroom evidence is assessed separately. Standard is a within-cabin baseline, not certification that unknown drawbacks are absent; per-seat recline exceptions and engineering window alignment remain unverified. The retained Layout 3 native drawing assigns no Extra legroom symbol to a numbered seat; legend text and general product availability alone do not support variant-specific Good promotions. October 4 methodology correction: categorical storage claims without precise primary evidence are superseded. Bulkhead-only positions are Standard with specific effects unknown; bassinet, lavatory and galley cautions remain only where individually sourced.

What changed

  1. Oct 4, 2026Resolved actual reviewer consistency findings: nested configuration notes now disclose the unlabelled figure without an unsupported crew-seat identity.
  2. Oct 4, 2026Superseded unsupported crew-seat identity for unlabelled native figure symbols; their function remains unknown. Corrected partial-row outboard49B/Jwindowalignment to unknown because native49A/Kare absent; sourced lavatory cautions retained.
  3. Oct 4, 2026Applied actual Claude review findings after independent native review: corrected service-bank evidence and removed unsupported categorical claims where applicable. Historical claims are superseded; the native seat grid is preserved.
  4. Oct 4, 2026Superseded forward row5 and rear-zone35 service proximity across source-drawn entries; retained directly evidenced same-side bank assessments.
  5. Oct 3, 2026Resolved actual Claude EY-R1/R2 findings against native archived diagrams: corrected supported letters, monument types and nearest-seat anchors; removed unsupported aisle/view and named-geometry claims; consistent immediate-monument precautions. Current-byte equality remains unverified.
  6. Oct 3, 2026Resolved actual Claude EY02/EY03 supported findings: removed unsupported aisle-access promises; narrowed product and service claims; harmonised bulkhead precautions and verified immediate monument annotations against each native archived diagram. Used neutral Layout 3 Business name and unspecified facing/geometry; represented two centre lavatories separately; retained absence of aft galley as drawn.
  7. Oct 3, 2026Rechecked the existing numbered row grid against the native Etihad PDF snapshot and current fleet link; no seat additions or removals.
  8. Jul 14, 2026Initial Etihad Airways 787-9 28J307Y configuration, transcribed row by row from the official Layout 3 PDF.
