Summary:
Ever endured a cramped middle seat on a long flight? Discover how to escape it.---
Choosing the right seat on a flight can make all the difference. Here's how to ensure a comfortable journey, even without splurging on first class.
Picking the Perfect Seat
If you haven't flown before, you might not know about seat selection options. Here's a breakdown of choices:
- Window Seats: Popular for the view, but not ideal for long flights since staring at the ocean for hours can become monotonous. The only exciting moment? Spotting the airport as you land.
- Aisle Seats: They offer extra space to stretch your legs, although flight attendants might inadvertently bump into you. Some prefer the window seat for sleeping against the wall, but an aisle seat provides easier access.
Avoid the Middle Aisle
Steer clear of the middle section aisle seats; you'll find yourself frequently disturbed by fellow passengers heading to the bathroom.
How to Secure a Better Seat
Even if your seat is pre-assigned, you have options to change it:
1. Research Online: Websites provide diagrams and seating arrangements, highlighting the best and worst seats for each aircraft type.
2. Contact the Airline: Once you've identified a desirable seat, reach out directly to the airline?"bypassing your travel agent.
3. Seek Out Exit Rows: If you know someone at the airline, they may help you snag an exit row seat. These seats offer substantial legroom but confirm they’re not near a bathroom to avoid standing passengers.
Getting an Exit Row Seat
If you don't have insider contacts, try these strategies:
- Arrive Early: For international flights, get to the airport well before the standard three-hour pre-flight arrival time.
- Check-in Options: Some airlines release exit row seats 24 hours before departure, so consider checking in the night before.
- Choose Wisely: If multiple exit row seats are available, select an aisle seat over a window for better legroom.
Conclusion
Avoid the crowded middle section, opt for an aisle seat, and prioritize finding an exit row spot for a more comfortable flight experience.
