Best seats in the cabin
« on: December 23, 2013, 05:21:29 PM »
I don't see a thread about this topic, so here goes:

I am flying several segments on Emirates A380, and I see that the economy section is the entire lower level.
Is it better to reserve seats up in the front cabin, or in the second cabin?

I presume the front cabin may be quieter than the second cabin.
I presume that the second cabin may be smoother, and less likely to be full.

[I don't care about window views.]

TIA for your input.

The back is always more empty.
On 747 and A380, it is also noticeable more bumpy.

On the Delta 767-400 in business class would the 2 front seats be more spacious then the other ones or they're all the same?

How would determine the right side? When facing the front of the plane the right side?

Well I knew which hand is my right, however, the side of the plane depends on which way you face.

I'm flying tomorrow IAD-CDG on the A380 with AF in coach,
now being that they have Y on both floors I have the option of choosing any, is there a difference between sitting upstairs or downstairs?

I would think the upper deck, tiny small cabin behind biz, vs the huge amount of people that are on the lower deck in economy.

What would be the best BF seats for a couple flying UA's 764?

Yes... I've done my research - and it seems like 1A & 1B - but I just wanna know if anyone has experience otherwise.
