Jetstar Fleet Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner Cabin Interior Class Configuration and Seats Layout

This 787-8 aircraft operates in a two-class configuration with 21 seats in Business Class and 314 seats in Economy Class.

There are just 21 seats in the business cabin, in three rows.

The seats are in a 2-3-2 layout offering 38 inches (97 cm) of pitch and 19 inches (48 cm) of width.

Waiting for you on your seat when you board will be your amenity kit, a pillow, blanket, and your noise-canceling headphones.

There is a small, fixed tray-table in between all the seats and the main tray-table can be accessed via a flap in the armrest.

Seat controls and headphone ports can be found just under the fixed tray-table between the seats.

The Inflight Entertainment (IFE) remote and power can also be found on the front of the armrests between the fixed tray-table and the floor.

While Jetstar calls it business class, it’s what a full-service airline would call premium economy.

Nevertheless, it’s a large, comfortable seat and there’s plenty of legroom.

The amenity kit is a cotton tote bag with wet wipes, hand cream, lip balm, toothbrush and paste, eye mask, ear plugs, socks, pen and an inflatable neck pillow.

A blanket and pillow is also provided.

For a low cost carrier, Jetstar’s 787-8 Dreamliner aircraft has some great features on economy class.

Modern, sleek, black leather seats also features adjustable headrest with additional padding for extra comfort.

Legroom is standard at 30 inch but decreases as the seat reclines so you will need to tweak the seat position to suit your needs. 

Windows feature the revolutionary “window dimming’ function instead of window shades which is exclusive to the Boeing 787.

For take off and landing the Cabin Crew will set all windows to bright in line with policy.

All seats feature USB charging points for your personal electronic devices.

An 18 inch TV screen is located in the seat back of all economy seats.

Jetstar’s in flight entertainment system features a selection of the latest blockbusters, reality TV shows, games, something for the kids and information about your flight.

It’s sure to keep the family entertained for the duration of the flight

In the early stages of operation, this aircraft operates on Domestic routes.

From there this 787 expands its route network to international locations including Bali, Hawaii, Japan, Phuket, and Singapore.
