I am looking at selecting the “neighbour-free” seats on an Etihad Boeing 787-10 economy flight from Bangkok to Abu Dhabi. These seats are located in front of and to the side of the toilets, but not directly adjacent to them. The main benefit is having an empty adjacent seat and...

I have noticed a couple of distinctive design elements on the Southwest Airlines “Independence One” aircraft that seem different from other special liveries in the fleet. Unlike standard Southwest aircraft, this one uses a red, white, and blue color scheme on the tail instead of...

Reported all over the web.. captain smelled electrical burning smell.

My partner and I are choosing seats for a transatlantic flight on a Lufthansa 787-9. From the seat map, it looks like the last row has only two seats instead of three, which seems ideal for more privacy. However, it also appears those seats might not have a window. I’d like to...

Came across an old 2015 concept image from Qantas showing potential long-haul routes for the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, including places like Mexico, Seattle, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Dubai, Cape Town, and even Addis Ababa. Looking back, a large number of those “direct range”...

LN-RKR, an Airbus A330-300, will sport the special livery. How I wish this was their standard livery.

Saw this and had to double check it was real. Air India apparently sent the wrong Boeing 777 from Delhi to Canada, and only realized after it was already over China… then told it to turn around and go back. Can’t imagine being on that flight and suddenly heading back the other...

I’ve been seeing a lot about these and I’m kinda curious how different they’ll actually feel in real life vs just renders. The new look sounds nice, but I wonder how it’ll blend with the rest of the fleet. Always feels a bit weird when only a few planes get the updated...

I came across this and it honestly looks kinda funny… like literal bars near the cockpit door. Crew on that flight hadn’t seen it before either and were taking pics. Guessing it’s just an added security thing for when one pilot steps out, but yeah… definitely gives off “sky...

Looking at seat maps and getting confused. Wizz shows row 40 missing and row 39 without window seats, but other sites show a full row 40 with normal 3-3 layout. Trying to figure out what the actual last row looks like… and if it ends up being one of those weird 2-seat rows.

Looking at a seat on a Korean Air 787-9 and noticed one where I’d have no one directly next to me, which sounds great for a solo trip. Only thing is it looks pretty close to the bathrooms. Not sure if that’s a good tradeoff or if it’ll just be annoying with people lining up....

Just boarded one of Qantas’ older 737 workhorses and noticed something interesting. The planes are definitely still old, but it looks like they’ve rearranged some seats. Sitting in row 6 and there’s noticeably more room than before. Still not exactly luxury, but it feels like a...

Wondering if Air India has upgraded the Delhi to Frankfurt route with the newer Boeing 787-9, specifically aircraft VT-AWA. Trying to confirm if this aircraft is now operating on that route.

Flying CLT - DFW. Got a 777 with training pilots. For a second I panicked cuz I don’t have my passport. And yes, that’s a broken toe.

Flew on an older 738 today and found this seat next to me. Would anyone know the reason for this seat delete? I'm a bit perplexed.
