165 seats: 11 good, 6 mixed, 11 to avoid

- Row 30, seat C (Guest Class): exit seat right behind Business, as Saudia colours it.
- Row 31, seat A (Guest Class): row 30 has no window seat, so this window seat likely has open space in front.
Seats to avoid
- Row 42, seats A, B, J and K (Guest Class): in front of an exit row, so recline is likely limited
- Row 42, seat C (Guest Class): in front of the mid-cabin exit row, so recline is likely limited.
