If you prefer, here’s what the seat looks like in daylight hours: Seat adjustments were made via a touch-panel in the armrest: The large compartment next to my armrest including the IFE controller, USB port, headphone jack, and power port. I appreciated the many compartments, which made personal storage quite easy. I actually wouldn’t call this seat any more comfortable than other seats, but I love the privacy and personal storage. The 787-8 has B/E Aerospace Diamond seats in a 2-2-2 configuration while the 787-9 has B/E Aerospace Super Diamond seatings which are in a reverse herringbone arrangement. Keep in mind there is a big difference in seating between the Aeromexico 787-8 and 787-9. Stepping onboard, the purser inspected my boarding pass and directed me to my seat in the forward business class cabin. Seat: 4A (Business Class / Clase Premier) By the time it opened, there were 100 passengers standing behind me. It remained closed for the next 20 minutes.

There, however, a giant glass door was closed. My ticket was scanned and passport checked and I was led down the ramp the jet-bridge door. Boarding began about 50 minutes prior to departure…sort of. I lined up at the gate one hour prior to departure, hoping to be first onboard. My late-night flight from Mexico City to Paris represented the perfect flight-time for sleeping…but would service suffer as a result?
