How this map was built

Japan Airlines Boeing 787-8, international configuration E03 (206 seats: 30 JAL SHELL FLAT NEO business + 176 economy). This is the older of JAL's two international 787-8 layouts — the business cabin is the angled-lie-flat JAL SHELL FLAT NEO (not the fully-flat SKY SUITE of the E12 config) and the IFE is MAGIC-V. Per-cabin counts, class row ranges, and the exit/lavatory/no-recline/no-window seat lists are published on JAL's official 787-8 aircraft page; abreast layouts (business 2-2-2, economy 2-4-2 eight-abreast) are read from JAL's published E03 seat-map diagram. Corroborated by Wikipedia's JAL fleet table (30J/176Y=206). DERIVED (layoutProvenance mixed): exact row NUMBERS between the published anchor rows are constructed to reproduce the published totals; business modeled as rows 1,2,3 forward + 7,8 aft (5x6=30); economy as front rows 18-28 (11x8=88) + rear rows 45-55 (11x8=88) = 176 (a clean 22 full eight-abreast rows). Published special seats honoured: bulkhead row 18 (18A/C/H/K no-recline), row 19 centre no-recline (19D/E/F/G), Door 3 exit row 45 (45A/C/H/K no-recline), row 46 centre no-recline (46D/E/F/G), row 52 no-window window seats (52A/K, these DO recline), rows 53-54 no-recline (A/C/H/K). Economy power is limited (window/aisle pairs A/C-H/K have outlets; centre D/E/G share) per JAL's published spec. Pitch/width unsourced; no 787 window grid so windowGridType omitted and window seats are windowAlignment 'unknown' except the published no-window 52A/52K.
