How this map was built

Thai Airways' second current Boeing 787-9 cabin, config code 78W: 30 Royal Silk (Stelia Aerospace Solstys, staggered 1-2-1) / 262 Economy (3-3-3) = 292; 9 lavatories; 2 aircraft per the official fleet page (the GEnx-powered subfleet leased from 2024, including ex-Bamboo Airways HS-TWC, per Wikipedia). Transcribed ROW-BY-ROW from a high-resolution render of Thai's official published 787-9 (78W) seat-map SVG. BUSINESS (Zone A, staggered 1-2-1, columns A | E,F | K): rows 11,12,15,16,17,18,19 are full 1-2-1 (rows 13,14 skipped) and row 20 keeps only the centre pair 20E/20F (the window positions A/K are the mid-cabin Door 2 galley) = 7×4 + 2 = 30; row 11 is the forward bulkhead. ECONOMY Zone B (3-3-3): rows 31–34 full 9 = 36; row 31 is the bulkhead behind the Door 2 galley with centre bassinet mounts. ECONOMY Zone C: rows 35–44 full 9 = 90; row 45 keeps A/B/C + H/J/K (the centre D/E/F is the Door 3 accessible-lavatory/galley monument) = 6; Zone C = 96. ECONOMY Zone D: row 46 is the bulkhead behind the Door 3 monument, full 9 with centre bassinets; rows 47–58 full 9 (row 46–58 = 117); row 59 is tapered to A,B + D,E,F + J,K = 7; rows 60 and 61 keep only the centre D,E,F (3 each), row 61 being the last row backing onto the aft Door 4 galley; Zone D = 117+7+3+3 = 130. Total Economy 36+96+130 = 262. Doors: 1 (forward, before row 11), 2 (business/economy split, after row 20), 3 (over-wing, at the row 45/46 galley-lavatory complex), 4 (aft, after row 61); no economy exit ROWS (all doors sit at galley/lavatory monuments). windowAlignment is left 'unknown' for all window seats — a top-down schematic does not prove a real window lines up (no 787 window grid). The over-wing row span is an approximation from the map's wing shading. Business bed length 73.5 in per Thai's seat-information table (the Solstys is a fully-flat seat; the table's 120° figure is the published seated-recline angle); Wi-Fi is not listed on the official page.
