What is the exit row and seat lettering on the 787-8?

• A. 20 ABC/JKL
• B. 20 ABC/DEF
• C. 18 ABC/JKL
• D. 21 ABC/JKL

Answer: (A)

The key concept is where the overwing exit doors are and which seat letters sit adjacent to those exits on a 787-8. The overwing exits are at row 20, and the two exit blocks are on the left and right sides of the cabin. Each exit block has three seats: on the left, the letters run from window to aisle as A, B, C; on the right, from window to aisle as J, K, L. The middle block (often DEF) sits between the aisles in most rows, but the exit row layout places the doors where the middle block would be, so the exit-row seats are the left block ABC and the right block JKL in row 20. Hence the exit row and seat lettering are 20 ABC/JKL.
