The Room
Not all ANA 777-300ERs are configured identically, and 'The Room' has not yet been rolled out fleet-wide, so always confirm aircraft type at booking — particularly on U.S. and European routes where older Staggered seats may still operate. For the best experience, book seats in the forward cabin near the galley for quicker meal service, and consider a Haneda departure, where ANA's home lounges tend to offer a more polished pre-flight experience than at Narita.

Sky Suite
Not all Sky Suite cabins are equal—JAL's newest 787-9s and refitted 777-300ERs carry the latest Sky Suite III generation with better seat privacy and finish, while some older 777s still operate a slightly dated version of the product, so checking aircraft type at booking is worthwhile. Routes to Europe and the US mainland are more likely to have the newer cabin than some regional long-haul routes. Window seats in the 1-2-1 layout offer the most privacy, while the center pairs suit couples traveling together.

Prestige Class
Always check the specific aircraft before booking — the difference between the door-equipped Prestige Suite and the older angled seats is substantial, and Korean Air's booking engine or ExpertFlyer can confirm equipment type. The Seoul–New York (JFK), Los Angeles, and select European routes are the most likely to feature the newer 787-9 or retrofitted 777-300ER hardware. Aisle seats in the older herringbone cabins can require climbing over a partition, so window seats are generally the better pick on those aircraft.
