Seat 12 A,B on 777 Domestic?

I'll be flying SFO-ORD later this month and 12 A and B are available on the seatmap but there is no mention of these seats on seatguru or even that they exist. This is my first time on the 777 Domestic. Can anyone explain this phenomena? thanks

Are you sure this is a domestic 777, and not an international one? On an international one that would be Business Class.

Do a dummy booking in F - take a look at the seatmap - determine whether it's domestic or Int'l config - If int'l: 12 A/B are fine seats for that flight.

Best, Dave

If its the 2pm flight from SFO to ORD its an Intl config (.bomb shows it as a 777XP but the last three times I've taken that flight, its been a 777XI). Either way it will be a 3 class 777.

I tried the dummy booking and it's showing 1-6 in F, domestic config. It's just in economy on the seat map it's showing a random row 12 A, B then it starts back up at 16 like normal.

I just did a dummy booking and did not see it. Strange! Can you tell us what date?

PM'ed Lucky, he's as boggled as me. It's the March 13th departure in case anyone is interested in solving this one.

But it's showing those two seats as unavailable. So, unless you reserved them yourself, don't worry about it. If you did reserve them yourself, that would be a cause for worry.

I'm playing with one of them back and forth, there's still plenty of room for now in the E+ cabin. But yeah, they are definitly reservable

Just for fun I would reserve those seats, and then call and ask about them. I would be curious to see what they say, because this really is puzzling.

I think I'll wait a bit for that, I'm in Minneapolis right now and the Weather is the worst it has been all winter. I'm sure the agents are pretty busy, as well I don't have access to the coveted 1K line.
