Aerolopa makes it easy to choose the best seat on your next flight
If you’ve flown very much you know very well that not all seats are created equal. So how do you choose what the best seat seat is on your next flight? Well… it used to be that SeatGuru was the king of seats, but as Gary Leff pointed out – (big hattip to him and Mainly Miles,) Aerolopa is the new king of seatmaps. Their website is super easy to use, has tons of information, is super clean, stylish, and easily beats SeatGuru. Let’s take a look at Aerolopa and an example of an American Airlines 772.

Aerolopa has information on a lot of different airlines
Each airlines is broken down by seat type. Note that these are just a few airlines, they have a long list not shown below.
Let’s look at American Airlines 772
It clearly shows you the number of seats in each configuration:
- 37 business class
- 24 premium economy
- 212 economy
The AA 772 has two different kinds of business class seat…in reality they look like this where one configuration has seats that face backwards and are inferior ( the pic with me and my buddy Dave ) and then the best iteration with super diamonds with all seats facing forward
The Aerolopa American Airlines 777-200 Seat Map
- Everything is to scale
- You can see which seats are Main Cabin Extra
- Seat with basinet capabilities
- Window placement
- Where the bathrooms are
- The list goes on
Aerolopa additional information
This is probably my favorite aspect – it tells you who manufactures the seats, the wifi its equipped with, screen size, etc.
