Lufthansa Boeing 787-9 seat map

Lufthansa's own seat map for this Boeing 787-9 shows 287 seats: 28 Business, 28 Premium Economy and 231 Economy. Business Class runs from row 1 to 9 in a staggered 1-2-1 layout where every seat has its own aisle access. Premium Economy runs from row 10 to 14 in a 2-3-2 layout. Economy Class runs from row 15 to 42 in a 3-3-3 layout. Rows 27 and 28 are exit rows behind a door. The map marks rows 19-22 (the window and aisle blocks) as Lufthansa's Preferred Zone. This is the Allegris cabin. Business staggers its seats, so the letters change from row to row and missing_seat marks the ones a row lacks; row 8 has only 8A and 8K, and row 9 only 9H.
