Best seats

- Row 3, seat A (Business): front row of the main Business cabin, close to La Première and the forward door.
- Rows 4–5, 10–12 and 14–20, seats A and L (Business): set back from the aisle, so it is more private

Seats to avoid
- Row 6, seats E and F (Business): next to a galley, with light and noise during service
- Row 24, seats E, F, G and H (Premium): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing
- Row 35, seats E, F, G and H (Economy): backs onto a lavatory, galley or wall, so recline is likely limited
- Row 36, seat K (Economy): a Duo pair against the lavatory and galley ahead of door 3: likely limited recline.
