  • Row 12, seats A, C, D and F (Economy): exit row behind door 2: a lot of legroom; you must be able to help in an emergency.

Seats to avoid

  • Row 27, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): row in front of the door 3 exit: recline is likely limited.
  • Row 40, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): last row, against the two rear lavatories: likely limited recline and the queue beside you.
