226 seats: 11 good, 28 mixed, 10 to avoid

Best seats

  • Row 1, seat A (First): first at the very front: two rows of four, every seat with its own aisle access.
  • Row 2, seats A and K (First): set back from the aisle, so it is more private
  • Row 5, seat C (Business): front row of Business, with no seat at the window beside you.
  • Row 7, seat A (Business): business window seat right behind the doors, at the front of the larger section.

Seats to avoid

  • Row 21, seats D and G (Economy): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing
  • Row 21, seat E (Economy): in front of the mid-cabin toilets, so recline is likely limited.
  • Row 37, seat B (Economy): last row, by the rear toilets; row 37 has no window seats.
  • Row 37, seats C, H and J (Economy): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing
