garuda indonesia boeing 777 300er economy class

Many airlines nowadays have so-called ten-abreast seating on their 777’s. Garuda has a comfortabele 3-3-3 lay-out in its Economy Class. As I was hoping, I (and many other passengers) got a row of three to myself. The forward part of Economy was quite full, but the aft cabins were a different story. Once aboard, I made my way to my seat in row 52 on the right side of the plane. After that, boarding was executed by row number. Without lounge access, I headed straight to the gate where the triple seven was already waiting.īoarding was orderly, with SkyPriority passengers going first. Security and passport control were swift. The agent confirmed there were plenty of empty seats, and changed my seat to a row of three next to the window. I asked if the flight was full, and if there was any chance of an empty seat next to me. The baggage was labeled all the way through to Denpasar and I received the boarding passes for both flights. Also in Economy, passengers are given a 30kg luggage allowance. As a result, I selected a seat in the most aft cabin of the aircraft, hoping I could get a row to myself.Īs expected, there were no queues at check-in and I was immediately assisted at the SkyPriority desk. As my flight was not during peak season, I expected the flight would be rather empty, especially because Garuda uses a high-density 777 from Amsterdam. Of course, it is then possible to select a standard seat without charge. Online check-in is available from 24 hours before departure. Skyteam Elite Plus members can always select a seat at no cost, including the exit row.

Passengers with a cheaper ticket pay 40 to 60 USD for the flight to Jakarta. Travellers with fare classes Y/B/M/K/N/G can select their seat free of charge in advance.

Seat selection is not free of charge for every ticket with Garuda. I was very curious to check out Garuda on a longhaul flight. It was a while ago when I last flew Garuda, utilising their short fifth freedom flight between Amsterdam and London Gatwick. The national airline of Indonesia has been awarded 5-stars by Skytrax and also the cabin crew and Economy Class have been classified as ‘World’s Best’ on multiple occasions.
