Best Seating Tips on Airlines

Here is one of the most useful websites for passenger guide to over 480 airlines and 550 airports with ranking, opinions, news and more:

http://www.airlinequality.com

One particular section that we think will be VERY useful for fellow travelers:

BEST SEATING TIPS

as it contains passenger recommendations on best seats (legroom, width, comfort etc) on a range of world airlines. Listed are major airlines such as Aerofloat, Air Asia, Air France, Alitalia, All Nippon Airways, British Airways, Cathay Pacific, China Airlines, Delta Airlines, Emirates, Ethihad Airlines, EVA Air, Gulf Air, Japan Airlines, KLM, Lauda Air, Lufthansa, Malaysia Airlines, Northwest Airlines, Qantas Airways, SAS Scandinavian, Singapore Airlines, Thai Airways International, Turkish Airline, United Airlines, Valuair, Virgin Atlantic etc.

Here is one of the samples - the best seating tips on Air Asia (Boeing 737-300) as they say:

“One class economy. All seats are at 29 inche and they have a free seating policy, so better board early and take the seats at the emgergency exits. These seats are wider but they do not recline. As you board take the one next to the aisle, (no one will purposely squeeze to seat next to the window), when it is ready for take off, lift the armrest and viola! A “business class” seat on a low-cost carrier! Another great seat, the row after the emergency exits by the window, great legroom, no seat in front of you just emergency exit. Remember never take the last row, I dare say it is even less than 29 inch!”

Check it out and make sure you request the right seats for your next travel!
