The Boeing 777-300ER carries eight closed first-class suites with 60 inches of seat pitch and 20.5 inches of width. These suites are in a 1-2-1 configuration but you will hardly be able to tell considering that they have floor to ceiling barriers between each suite.
The competition between Airbus and Boeing has been characterised as a duopoly in the large jet airliner market since the 1990s. This resulted from a series of mergers within the global aerospace industry, with Airbus beginning as a European consortium while the American Boeing absorbed its former arch-rival, McDonnell Douglas, in 1997. Airbus A330 and Boeing 777 are two of the most popular wide-body aircraft families in service today. They are both twins, airlines use them on flights of all durations – although primarily on medium- and long-haul flights, and they have been produced in similar numbers. In this article, I look at them side by side in detail. Airbus A330 and Boeing 777 are two of the most popular wide-body aircraft families in service today.
