Alaska Airlines Details Soft Product And Cabin Layout For Its New 787-9 Longhaul Fleet, Based In Seattle

Alaska Airlines is preparing to launch longhaul service on its Boeing 787-9, and the airline has now outlined the amenities that will define the onboard experience.

My wife and are are booked onto Hawaiian’s A330 fight from Sydney to Honolulu in a couple of months, in extra legroom economy which is 2x4x2. If they swap the A330 for the newer 787, we will be cancelling our tickets and finding a different flight–just because of the 3x seating in economy.
