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 31, seat A (Guest Class): exit seat by the window behind the second doors, as Saudia colours it.

Seats to avoid

  • Row 5, seats A, C, D, H and J (Business Class): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing
  • Row 51, seats A, C, J and L (Guest Class): in front of an exit row, so recline is likely limited
