787 ups and downs...

It will depend on the airline of course. The 787 started out with 3-3-3 seating but I believe some airlines tried or went with 3-4-3. That would be tight and I suspect more suited for shorter flights. The 777 generally has 3-4-3 seating though United had the five seat middle setup. I’ve been on those and it’s not a good arrangement especially if you have the aisle seat and someone tries to get into the overhead bin above you.

The new 777-X aircraft look interesting but when they will be operating is another question.
All I can say is my plan, after retirement, is to never set foot on a passenger aircraft. It has never been worse to fly than it is right now.

Huge line to get through security today at Sea. Yesterday I heard the lines were so bad TSA routed people into the parking garage and some missed their flights. My flight today now delayed three hours, and four gate changes. Nuts.

I read about that. Security has always been a bottleneck at SEA but this is bad.
 
I found a news video about the lines for security. This is Seattle, not NYC or LAX. In addition it seems nobody wants to accept the blame. Typical.
