Seat Map Gulf Air Boeing B787 9

First time to fly on Gulf`s 787, with direct aisle access from window seat this is a game changer, move over other Middle East carriers you have trumped! The seat its self is comfortable and reclines to give a full flat bed, mattress provided.
I opted for the main of lamb shank, cooked to perfection, and made many choices from the sweet trolley.
For me the choice of entertainment didn't inspire me, but that's me, i couldn't find anything that i liked, (maybe i am too fussy) The IFE system is touch control, however to operate one would have to leave the comfort of the seat, there is a hand held device which will control and can be watched.
Afternoon tea was served, a must is the scone, jam & cream,. When asked by the in flight chef what my choice of drink is throughout the flight this flowed endlessly.

Flight crew couldn't have done anymore than they did, i have flown many carriers over the years and this team are up their at the top. Well Done Gulf air in times of trouble for your competitors flying the London to Middle East route, you have it !

Another great flight in Gulf Air BC (Apex Suites). This review is for the second leg to London and sitting in 3A. I should have picked 4A actually as 3A and 3K on the right have only two windows although the nearest on is directly next to your head so was not a big deal. Seats go full flat but I only wanted it to be a good recline as only snoozing/resting. PJ's were offered (to my surprise as the flight was daytime) and Champagne and hot/cold towels served on boarding plus dates and Arabic coffee. Crew were very pleasant and attentive and I enjoyed the main meal service. The pre-landing 'afternoon tea' thing was a bit of an after-thought in my view. Its served off a cart and you are just handed a single plate with cakes and sarnies. No tablecloth or much else but better than nothing I suppose. All in all a good 9/10 score for this one and look foreyard to flying Gulf again soon.

PS - I rated 'Entertainment as average as you have to give a score but I didn't use it (only had the map on screen).

Excellent aeroplane, environment and services
