Boeing 767

The Boeing 767 is an older wide-body aircraft that remains a staple on transatlantic routes, particularly with airlines like United and Delta. While its 2-3-2 layout can be more comfortable than newer 3-3-3 configurations found on other aircraft, seat pitch and width can vary significantly between operators. It's worth checking the specific configuration before booking, as some airlines have updated their 767 cabins while others have not.
