288 seats: 7 good, 26 mixed, 20 to avoid

Best seats

  • Row 10, seat A (Business): front row of Business at the window, away from the mid-cabin toilet.
  • Row 11, seat K (Business): business window seat in the middle of the main cabin.
  • Row 15, seat A (Business): business in a small one-row cabin of its own behind the doors, likely quieter.
  • Row 20, seat A (Economy): first Economy row, marked with extra legroom.

Seats to avoid

  • Row 14, seats D and G (Business): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing
  • Row 33, seats A, B, C, E, F, H, J and K (Economy): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing
  • Row 33, seat D (Economy): backs onto the mid-cabin toilets, so recline is likely limited and there's a toilet queue right behind you.
