Plan de cabine Ethiopian Boeing B777 200LR

By using charm and my Star Gold card I was able to bag an exit row aisle seat which was fine except that flight attendants kept hitting my video screen with their food carts, seemingly oblivious. People queueing for the nearby lavatory was not the problem I expected, even though Ethiopian carries a number of first time fliers unfamiliar with toilet doors or inclined to thunder on them if they feel their need is greater than that of the current occupier. The food was miniscule in quantity with curious dead lettuce leaves masquerading as a salad, but the main course was ok otherwise. My main concern was cabin safety and the helpful crew's unwillingness to challenge passengers who stood up and collected their belongings from lockers on final or taxi, leaving them open and in one case walking to the door on final. This endangers not just the perp but other passengers and causes one to question their ability to evacuate a plane. I would say their charm and efficiency equals that of Kenya Airways crews but they do not inspire confidence in the safety department.

I was very impressed with this aircraft. Unlike many airlines that squeeze a fourth seat in the middle section Ethiopian has left it alone with 9 abreast seating. This ensures that you have 18 inch width and 32 inch pitch which is really comfortable. Each seat has a personal touch screen with a decent number of movies and TV shows along with games. The toilets are huge compared to most airlines, especially in Economy. I would recommend this aircraft and airline. I'm impressed.

Online booking started 36hrs b4 my flight. I tried to check 26 hrs b4 my flight but I was not able to get the seat I wanted, row 30. So, I settled for 36L. However, I was generally satisfied with this seat as well. It spacious and enough. Stretching my leg to the full is however impossible, that why I needed row 30.
