It’s time for another Vintage Airline Seat Map and I’ve selected one of two United Airlines Boeing 767-200 configurations seen flying the skies in 1998.

The version appearing below operated domestically (I believe exclusively) as it lacked flight attendant crew rest seats. The other layout I’ll post in a future installment and it had two rows of dual (coach) crew rest seats where 10A is located on this map.

In first class, I particularly enjoyed 2A on this aircraft and either 5A or 6A in business. Rows 10 and 11 weren’t any fun given the proximity of the lavs and galley, though the single seats were unique. I never flew in economy on this bird (was fortunate as a non-revver to always get the premium cabins), but I’d probably opt for 15AB or 15FG if legroom was as good as it looks.

It’s time for another Vintage Airline Seat Map and I’ve selected a United Airlines Boeing 767-200 seen flying the skies in 1987.

I have a United seating guide from 1979 that listed the planned configuration for the 767-200 as being 24 in First and 173 in coach once it was delivered in 1982, so this bird has an “extra” row in coach than what was initially proposed. I’m unsure of the originally delivered configuration.

You’d find me in 2A or 2G in First Class or definitely in that first section of coach just behind First.

Here’s an American Airlines Boeing 767-200 from 1987 for this installment of Vintage Airline Seat Maps. Seating a total of 184 passengers, First Class seated 14 people in a 2 x 1 x 2 configuration, Business Class offered 30 seats in the common 2 x 2 x 2 layout and economy sat 140 passengers in the typical 2 x 3 x 2 format.

The current version flying American’s premium routes today from JFK-LAX/SFO have a slightly different configuration for 168 passengers (10/30/128). A combination of a smaller First cabin and enhanced pitch of about 34” in economy account for the difference in seating capacity.

On the version appearing below, you’d find me in 3A in First, 9A or 9J in Business and 17A in coach.

United Airlines was the launch customer for the Boeing 767-200, but both American and Delta were quick to also place orders for the then revolutionary widebody twinjet in 1978. I’m not sure if Delta ever flew this model overseas, but the 767 was apparently the most frequently used airliner for transatlantic flights between North America and Europe in the 1990s.

This installment of Vintage Airline Seat Maps features a domestic Delta Air Lines 767-200 from 1987. Seating a total of 204 passengers, First Class offered 18 seats in a 2 x 2 x 2 configuration and coach had 186 seats in the usual 2 x 3 x 2 setup. Delta operated a total of 14 of the -200s and one still remains. The Spirit of Delta can be viewed in all her glory at the Delta Heritage Museum located at the carrier’s headquarters.

In First Class I’d be in either 2A or 2F and in coach I’d prefer a window in row 13 or 14 for a great view forward, and a good look back at the engine.

My roommate just told me that a well known Pastor, Fulton J. Sheen, used to refer to Trans World Airlines (TWA) as “Travel With Angels.” Well here’s a TWA Boeing 767-200 for the current installment of Vintage Airline Seat Maps.

Seating a total of 184 passengers in three classes, this bird saw 15 seats in First Class in a 2 x 1 x 2 configuration, 40 seats in Ambassador (Business) Class in the common 2 x 2 x 2 layout and 129 in Coach with a 2 x 3 x 2 setup.

In First I’d be sitting in either 2-1 or 2-9 (remind me why TWA went with numbered seat lettering?). In Ambassador Class I’d definitely be sitting in row seven or eight and also likely in a window, and in coach I’d probably be near the back away from the wing.

I just read somewhere that Boeing completed production of the 1,000^th 767, so this week’s Vintage Airline Seat Map is a Piedmont Airlines 767-200ER. This twin cabin configuration accommodated 210 passengers: 25 in Business Class, and 185 in Coach. I personally liked the single middle seat in the forward cabin, but you’d most likely find me on a window seat such as 1A or 2A if I were in Business Class. The best coach seats look to be in row 6, and maybe the overwing exits at 14A/B and 14F/G, although the proximity to the lavatories might be an issue there.
