Vueling Airbus A321neo (236 seats)

235 seats: 30 good, 16 mixed, 12 to avoid

Best seats

  • Row 1, seats A, C, D and F (Space One): space One, the front row: about 20% more room than a standard seat by Vueling's figures, nobody in front and first off the plane. The front lavatory and galley are just ahead.
  • Rows 2–4, seats A, C, D and F (Space Plus): space Plus: one of the extra-room rows 2 to 4 Vueling sells near the front, with priority boarding and a quick exit.
  • Rows 2–4, seats B and E (Space Plus): space Plus: Vueling's extra-room rows 2 to 4
  • Row 20, seats A and F (Economy): second overwing exit row: extra legroom and a window; you must be able to help in an emergency.

Seats to avoid

  • Row 18, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): row in front of the overwing exits: recline is likely limited.
  • Row 40, seats D, E and F (Economy): in front of the rear galley Vueling draws beside row 41: galley noise and light, and likely limited recline.
  • Row 41, seats A, B and C (Economy): last row, with the galley beside it and the lavatory behind: likely limited recline and the busiest spot in the cabin.
