303 seats: 16 good, 17 mixed, 20 to avoid

Best seats

  • Row 6, seat A (Business): business window seat near the front, away from the galleys.
  • Rows 6 and 12, seat K (Business): set back from the aisle, so it is more private
  • Rows 7–11, seats A and K (Business): set back from the aisle, so it is more private
  • Row 15, seat A (Economy): first Economy row, drawn with extra legroom and no seats in the middle of the row.

Seats to avoid

  • Row 12, seats D and G (Business): next to a galley, with light and noise during service
  • Row 30, seats A, B, C, E, G, H, J and K (Economy): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing
  • Row 30, seat D (Economy): in front of the mid-cabin toilets, so recline is likely limited.
  • Row 44, seats B and J (Economy): backs onto a toilet, galley or wall as Etihad draws it, so recline is likely limited
