Default Re: Seat guru

Tal's suggestion is a good one. To use this site you need to know the type of plane you are flying.

If you are flying coach the prime seats are bulk head and exit rows. If there are two rows of exit seats choose the second row. First row of exit row seats usually do not recline.

Bulk head seats are usually reserved for individuals who have physical problems or flying with an infant. At one time, haven't seen it recently, the airlines had a device that attached to the wall where you placed your baby. If these seats are not taken you can request them when you check in.

Exit rows (since they have more leg room), some airlines are now charging for these seats. If you have elite status you usually have access to these seats with no premium charge.

If you know the configuration of each row, 2,2,2 or 2,3,2 or any other combination, the middle seats are usually the ones that are not as comfortable as an aisle or a window seat is.
