SWISS Airbus A330-300 (236 seats)

236 seats: 20 good, 22 mixed, 19 to avoid

Best seats

  • Row 1, seat A (SWISS First): sWISS First window seat in a cabin of only eight seats.
  • Row 2, seats A and K (SWISS First): set back from the aisle, so it is more private
  • Row 4, seat A (SWISS Business): extra space seat: a single seat at the window with wide surfaces either side and its own aisle access.
  • Row 7, seat K (SWISS Business): single window seat on the right with direct aisle access.

Seats to avoid

  • Row 5, seat B (SWISS Business): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing
  • Row 5, seats D and G (SWISS Business): next to a galley, with light and noise during service
  • Row 9, seat A (SWISS Business): sWISS lists this Business seat with no window.
  • Row 28, seats A, B, E, F, G, J and K (SWISS Economy): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing

284 seats: 5 good, 22 mixed, 17 to avoid

Best seats

  • Row 15, seat A (Business Class): front row of Business by the window, with nobody in front.
  • Row 18, seat A (Business Class): business window seat in the middle of the cabin, away from the galleys at either end.
  • Row 30, seat A (Guest Class): first Guest Class row, drawn as extra legroom.
  • Row 47, seat A (Guest Class): exit seat behind the mid-cabin doors, as Saudia colours it.

Seats to avoid

  • Row 20, seats A, C, J and L (Business Class): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing
  • Row 20, seat D (Business Class): next to a galley, with light and noise during service
  • Row 45, seat A (Guest Class): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing
