Aer Lingus Airbus A330-200 (A330-202, 271 seats)
271 seats: 16 good, 14 mixed, 12 to avoid
Best seats
- Rows 3 and 5, seat A (Business): solo seat on the window side of its pod, with the side table between you and the aisle: the most private kind of Business seat on this map.
- Rows 3 and 5, seat K (Business): solo seat set in the middle of its pod, with a side table on each side and no neighbour: one of the most private Business seats on this map.
- Row 11, seats A and C (Economy): exit row by the door, sold as an Extra Legroom seat: open floor in front, but people pass on their way to the lavatories and galley. No children under 14 or people with reduced mobility.
- Row 12, seat D (Economy): no seat in front: Aer Lingus's map has no seat 11D, so there is more room for your legs.
Seats to avoid
- Row 6, seats D and G (Business): next to what is likely a galley: Aer Lingus draws an unlabelled box here
- Row 29, seats A, C, H and K (Economy): backs onto the lavatories or galley Aer Lingus draws behind this row: recline is likely limited, and the queue forms beside you.
- Rows 40–43, seat E (Economy): middle of the three centre seats where the cabin narrows: a neighbour on each side and no aisle of your own.
- Row 42, seats H and K (Economy): backs onto the lavatories or galley Aer Lingus draws behind this row: recline is likely limited, and the queue forms beside you.
Hawaiian Airlines Airbus A330-200 (278 seats)
266 seats: 60 good, 26 mixed, 12 to avoid
Best seats
- Rows 2–3, seats A and J (First Class): first Class window seat away from the front galleys and lavatory; the aisle seat beside it sits between you and the aisle.
- Rows 2–3, seats B and H (First Class): first Class aisle seat in a pair: easy to get up, away from the front galleys and lavatory.
- Rows 2–3, seats C and G (First Class): first Class centre pair, both on an aisle: good for two travelling together.
- Row 11, seats C and G (Premium Class): premium Class centre bulkhead aisle seat behind First Class: 36-inch pitch and nobody in front.
Seats to avoid
- Row 12, seats C, D, E and G (Premium Class): premium Class centre row against the galley Hawaiian draws behind it: recline is likely limited, with galley light and noise.
- Row 30, seats A, B, H and J (Main Cabin): last side row of the forward Main Cabin, against the lavatories Hawaiian draws behind it: recline is likely limited and the queue forms by your seat.
- Row 47, seats A, B, H and J (Main Cabin): last row of the aircraft, in front of the rear galleys: recline is likely limited, with galley light and noise.
