Read off the airline’s own material, but some detail — often the row numbering — is our own careful work rather than theirs. Treat row-level detail as indicative and check at booking.
This layout is derived rather than read row by row off an Ethiopian drawing that prints its row numbers, so treat the row numbers as our model of the cabin rather than as Ethiopian's own. Rows 5 and 22 carry no seats: both are where Ethiopian's diagram shows a door pair with its galley and lavatory bank — between Business and Economy, and again in the middle of Economy. Ethiopian publishes seat totals rather than a row-numbering scheme for this aircraft, and does not say why any number would be left out.
Worked out from sourced data rather than read directly off a published map.
About this cabin
Ethiopian Airlines' 777-200LR in this configuration seats 315 (J/Y/Y/Y). The seat totals here are confirmed from published airline data; some row-by-row detail is our own careful estimate where the airline doesn't publish it. Ethiopian Airlines flies only this one cabin layout on the 777-200LR — no version lottery on this type.
Quick pick, by traveller
| If you're… | Pick | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Travelling solo | 3A | A window seat rated highly with nothing working against it — lean on the wall, control the shade, nobody climbing over you. |
| Travelling as a couple | 3A | This 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. |
| Trying to sleep | 3A | A window seat away from galley and lavatory traffic, so aisle lights and trolley passes are less likely to wake you. |

Seats to avoid
| Seat | Cabin | Why to avoid it |
|---|---|---|
| 1B | Cloud Nine (Business) | A galley is directly next to you, so expect crew activity, cart noise and light throughout the flight, especially during meal service. |
| 1C | Cloud Nine (Business) | A galley is directly next to you, so expect crew activity, cart noise and light throughout the flight, especially during meal service. |
| 1E | Cloud Nine (Business) | A galley is directly next to you, so expect crew activity, cart noise and light throughout the flight, especially during meal service. |
| 1F | Cloud Nine (Business) | A galley is directly next to you, so expect crew activity, cart noise and light throughout the flight, especially during meal service. |
| 21A | Economy | 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. |
| 21J | Economy | 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. |
| 38A | Economy | 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. |
| 38C | Economy | 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. |
Known quirks on this aircraft
- Seat doesn't recline (26 seats: 21A, 21B, 21C, and 23 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 (16 seats: 1A, 1G, 2A, and 13 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 (32 seats: 1B, 1C, 1E, and 29 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 (15 seats: 1A, 1B, 1C, and 12 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 (4 seats: 21A, 21J, 23A, and 1 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.
Frequently asked
- How many seats does Ethiopian Airlines' 777-200LR have in this configuration?
- 315 seats in total, arranged as J/Y/Y/Y. This is one specific configuration — Ethiopian Airlines' fleet may include other configurations of the same aircraft type, covered below.
- Is this the only cabin layout Ethiopian Airlines flies on the 777-200LR?
- Yes, as far as we can determine — Ethiopian Airlines flies only this one cabin layout on the 777-200LR. There's no "version lottery" to worry about on this specific type for this airline.
- Which seats should I avoid?
- Seat 1B in Cloud Nine (Business) is worth avoiding: A galley is directly next to you, so expect crew activity, cart noise and light throughout the flight, especially during meal service. The full seat map marks every seat we'd steer you away from, with the specific reason for each.
- How confident are you in this seat map?
- This configuration is marked "derived" — the overall configuration confirmed, with some row-level detail worked out from seat counts and layout. See the sources and last-verified date lower on this page.
- Has a real person checked these individual seat scores?
- Not yet for this specific configuration. The scores above come from our rules engine, which reasons from real aircraft geometry, but they aren't marked as human-verified until someone has actually reviewed the unusual ones — see the verification section below for the current status.
