Seating on 787 across the aisle

Sadly on an upcoming JFK-SYD in J, two seats in the middle aren't available.

But 2F is, as is 1K and 2K.

As Seatguru shows the middle/aisles don't line up perfectly.

So I think the best pair is 2F+K, since the window 'desk' is by the window.

But wondering if 2F / 1K better to be more closely aligned (and both pax get a nice footwell).

This row 2 and I’d say 2K is more aligned and less gap as 1K the console is on the left.

Suggest using Aerolopa for seat maps as they’re more accurate and kept up to date.

Nice photographic reconnaissance! Thanks

We had a schedule change for an upcoming trip and the return flights in a few weeks now includes QF8 DFW-SYD (in lieu of AA LAX-SYD). We took 3A/3K! Probably sleep most the way anyway….

Based in the staggered rows I’d prolly go 1K plus 2K? Just stand up to talk.

We flew in 1K & 2K last week. 1K is quite private and doesn't align with centre seats at all. And although 2K doesn't either in terms of being able to interact, as @milehighclub suggested you are closer because your seat is against the aisle (as opposed to the window.) If you have EF, set up a seat alert for 2 seats together. You may get lucky.

The front middle pair have a bassinet, so grabbing that if it frees up inside T-80 / checkin is a win-win.

As P1 I usually can get it released early if I ask nicely.

Both great seats!
