United Airlines United Polaris Business · Boeing 767-400ERConfig 764

Lie-flat business-class seat in a staggered 1-1-1 layout on the Boeing 767-400ER, with direct aisle access for every seat and Polaris soft product (Saks Fifth Avenue bedding, amenity kit, etc.).

Cabin Highlights

  • ✓All seats convert to a fully lie-flat bed (commonly cited as ~77–78 in long on the 767-400 retrofit).
  • ✓Staggered layout: odd-numbered window seats are more private; even-numbered window seats are more exposed to the aisle.
  • ✓Every seat has direct aisle access (no climbing over other passengers).

Strategic Seating

Best Rows
  • Odd-numbered window seats (the ‘true’ window seats) for the best privacy (examples commonly recommended: 3A/3L, 5A/5L, 7A/7L, 9A/9L depending on your flight’s available rows).
  • Mid-cabin odd-numbered window seats if you want to be farther from galley/lavatory activity at the very front.
Rows to Avoid
  • Even-numbered window seats (more exposed to the aisle due to the stagger).
  • Front-row seats if you’re sensitive to galley/crew-rest activity (some 767s may reserve/curtain parts of the forward area for crew rest on certain routes).

How to book this cabin

Airlines may change equipment at any time. To ensure you get the 767-400ER (764), always check the seat map during and after booking.

Look for these hints:

  • Look for "767-400ER" or "764"
  • Seat map shows a 1-1-1 Polaris cabin (single seat by each window plus a single center seat).
  • Odd/even window-seat staggering is visible on seat maps: some window seats sit closer to the window (more private), others closer to the aisle (more exposed).
