   In recent weeks, All Nippon Airways has taken the first Boeing 787-10s into   
   service for domestic use. They have a record number of seats on board for the   
   Dreamliner: 429, of which 28 in Business Class and 401 in Economy Class.   
       
   The fact that so many seats fit is mainly because Business Class is very   
   small. The 28 seats are in fact more like Premium Economy seats and do not   
   take up much space. More comfort is not necessary on flights of 1 to 2 hours   
   on which the domestic 787-10 is used.   
       
   However, all passengers have an entertainment screen, even in Economy Class.   
   The legroom in the latter class is average.   
       
   Japan is known for deploying very well-stocked widebody aircraft on domestic   
   routes. This is partly because there is a high demand for airline tickets   
   between the major Japanese metropolises, in combination with limited airport   
   capacity.   
       
   For example, All Nippon Airways also has Boeing 777-300s with no fewer than   
   514 seats. And the 787-10s will replace the domestic 777-200s with 405 seats.   
       
   The large number of passengers is not a problem for safety: the 787-10 is   
   certified to carry a maximum of 440 passengers. Until now, no operators have   
   come close to this. Most airlines put 300 to 350 seats in this type.
