The aircraft is configured to accommodate a total of 326 passengers – 24 (flatbed seat) business class and 302 economy. The aircraft is also installed with IFE on individual seat of both classes of the cabin. Since its debut on the Lagos – London route on November 20, 2015, the airline has operated with B767 and later B747, which is now being replaced with B777 aircraft.

Speaking at a brief reception, Med-View Airline Chief Operating Officer/Accountable Manager, Engr. Lookman Animashaun, said the deployment of the B777 on London route is part of the airline strategy to rebrand its international operations, especially the London route.
