Provisional dataLast checked 3sources cited

Not yet confirmed against a primary source. Treat row-level detail as indicative and check at booking.

Air Canada's own seat map does not use rows 8 to 11, 15 to 17, 30 or 46 to 49 on this aircraft. Signature Class ends at row 7 and Premium Economy starts fresh at row 12; Premium Economy ends at row 14 and Economy starts fresh at row 18; Economy then runs to row 29 and restarts at row 31 at the second door pair, and runs to row 45 and restarts at row 50 at the third. Air Canada does not say why the numbers in between are left out — that reading is ours, from its own drawing.

Air Canada publishes 440 seats for this aircraft; this map draws 450. Two of Air Canada's own publications disagree by exactly one economy row, and this map follows the drawing. Air Canada's summary table gives Economy as rows 18-28, 31-45 and 50-63, 388 seats. Its own drawing of the same aircraft prints rows 27, 28 and 29 in sequence before jumping to 31, and that row 29 holds ten seats — 398 in Economy, ten more than the table. Signature Class and Premium Economy match the table to the seat on the same drawing, so the ten seats of row 29 are the whole of the difference.

What we could not settle on this aircraft

Air Canada's own specification table says this cabin holds 388 Economy seats in rows 18-28, 31-45 and 50-63 — 440 seats in all. Air Canada's own drawing of the same aircraft prints a row 29 that the table says does not exist, and holds 398 Economy seats, ten more. The two cabins in front, Signature and Premium Economy, match the table exactly on the same drawing, so this is one specific disagreement rather than a rough picture. We have drawn what the drawing shows, row 29 included, because it is the more detailed of the two sources and because row 29 is drawn at exactly the same spacing as every other row around it. If you are offered a seat in row 29, or cannot find one, this is why — and it is Air Canada we would ask.

Our best current understanding, not yet confirmed against a primary source.

Quick verdict

In Economy Class, seat 50B is the best pick. Avoid seat 45C — seat doesn't recline.

About this cabin

Air Canada's 777-300ER in this configuration seats 450 (J/W/Y/Y/Y/Y/Y). This is our best current estimate for this layout, built mainly from secondary sources — treat exact seat-by-seat detail with a little more caution than usual. Air Canada flies 2 different cabins on the 777-300ER — this is one of them. This is a version lottery: the flight page will tell you which one you're actually booked on where we can determine it.

Quick pick, by traveller

If you're…PickWhy
Travelling solo3AA window seat rated highly with nothing working against it — lean on the wall, control the shade, nobody climbing over you.
Travelling as a couple3DThis row's layout puts a genuine two-seat pair here — no middle seat exists in this group, so it's just the two of you.
Tall passengers50BGenuine extra legroom that also still reclines — not every extra-legroom seat does.
Nervous flyers23BOver the wing, close to the aircraft's structural centre of gravity — the smoothest ride on board when it's bumpy.
Trying to sleep3AA window seat away from galley and lavatory traffic, so aisle lights and trolley passes are less likely to wake you.

Seat map

Air Canada Signature Class (business class)

Air Canada Signature Class spans rows 1–7 in a 1-2-1 layout, 21in seat width. Worth avoiding: 1D, 1G, 1A, 1K — next to galley.

Premium Economy

Premium Economy spans rows 12–14 in a 2-4-2 layout, 38in pitch and 20in seat width. Worth avoiding: 13C, 13D, 13G, 13H — next to galley.

Economy Class

Economy Class spans rows 18–29, 31–45 and 50–63 in a 3-4-3 layout, 31in pitch and 17in seat width. The strongest seats here are 50B, 50E, 50F, 50J. Worth avoiding: 45C, 45D, 45G, 45H — seat doesn't recline.

These rows lose one seat from each side block, and it is the aisle seat that goes, not the window: the fuselage narrows, the aisles converge, and Air Canada's drawing keeps both side pairs hard against the wall. There is no 60C, 61C or 62C and no 60H, 61H or 62H, but every window seat survives.

Row 63 is the last row and Air Canada draws it as 63D, 63E, 63F and 63G alone — the aft galleys take both side blocks.

Known quirks on this aircraft

  • Seat doesn't recline (32 seats: 14A, 14C, 14D, and 29 more) — This is the last row of the cabin, or the row directly in front of an exit, so the seat back is fixed upright for the whole flight.
  • Often cold or draughty (18 seats: 1A, 1K, 2A, and 15 more) — Seats next to a bulkhead or door on a long-haul widebody are usually the coldest in the cabin — bring a layer for this one.
  • High foot traffic (44 seats: 1D, 1G, 2D, and 41 more) — This aisle seat sits right next to a lavatory, galley or exit, so expect a steady stream of people brushing past, especially early and late in the flight.
  • No underseat storage (42 seats: 1A, 1D, 1G, and 39 more) — Bulkhead and exit-row seats have nothing in front of the seat to store a bag under, so your bag must go in the overhead bin for the whole flight.
  • Wing blocks the view (30 seats: 23A, 23K, 24A, and 27 more) — The wing sits directly outside this window, blocking most of the view — but you also get one of the smoothest, quietest rides on the aircraft.
