About this cabin
Royal Air Maroc's 787-9 in this configuration seats 320 (J/W/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. Royal Air Maroc flies 2 different cabins on the 787-9 — 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… | 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 | 3B | 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. |
| Tall passengers | 22B | Genuine extra legroom that also still reclines — not every extra-legroom seat does. |
| Nervous flyers | 22B | Over the wing, close to the aircraft's structural centre of gravity — the smoothest ride on board when it's bumpy. |
| 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. |
Seat map
Business
Business spans rows 1–4 in a 1-2-1 layout, 46in pitch and 22in seat width. The strongest seats here are 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D. Worth avoiding: 1B, 1C, 1A, 1D — next to galley.
Eco Premium (sold as Economy inventory, not a separate fare class) (premium economy)
Eco Premium (sold as Economy inventory, not a separate fare class) spans rows 6–9 in a 2-3-2 layout, 38in pitch and 18.7in seat width.
Economy
Economy spans rows 11–12 and 14–42 in a 3-3-3 layout. Worth avoiding: 42A, 42B, 42C, 42D — seat doesn't recline.
Royal Air Maroc publishes a seat total for this cabin but no seat map we have been able to read. The last Economy row is drawn six wide because that is what the class total leaves over — it is this project's own arithmetic, not a Royal Air Maroc figure, which is why this configuration is provisional.

Best seats
Business
- 3A — This cabin has 16 seats or fewer and sits ahead of the main cabin, so it usually feels quieter and boards and deplanes faster.
- 3B — This cabin has 16 seats or fewer and sits ahead of the main cabin, so it usually feels quieter and boards and deplanes faster.
- 3C — This cabin has 16 seats or fewer and sits ahead of the main cabin, so it usually feels quieter and boards and deplanes faster.
- 3D — This cabin has 16 seats or fewer and sits ahead of the main cabin, so it usually feels quieter and boards and deplanes faster.
Seats to avoid
| Seat | Cabin | Why to avoid it |
|---|---|---|
| 1B | Business | A galley is directly next to you, so expect crew activity, cart noise and light throughout the flight, especially during meal service. |
| 1C | Business | A galley is directly next to you, so expect crew activity, cart noise and light throughout the flight, especially during meal service. |
| 1A | Business | A galley is directly next to you, so expect crew activity, cart noise and light throughout the flight, especially during meal service. |
| 1D | Business | A galley is directly next to you, so expect crew activity, cart noise and light throughout the flight, especially during meal service. |
| 42A | 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. |
| 42B | 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. |
| 42C | 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. |
| 42D | 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 (31 seats: 9A, 9B, 9C, and 28 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 (20 seats: 1A, 1D, 2A, and 17 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 (28 seats: 1B, 1C, 2B, and 25 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 (38 seats: 1A, 1B, 1C, and 35 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 (8 seats: 21A, 21J, 22A, and 5 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.
