Aer Lingus Airbus A320-200 (A320, 172 seats)
172 seats: 16 good, 0 mixed, 12 to avoid
Best seats
- Row 1, seats A, C, D and F (AerSpace): aerSpace front-row seat: Aer Lingus keeps the middle seat beside you free (it is greyed out on the map), with private overhead storage on AerSpace fares.
- Rows 12–13, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): overwing exit row, sold as an Extra Legroom seat: more room for your legs. Aer Lingus doesn't seat children under 14 or people with reduced mobility in exit rows.
Seats to avoid
- Row 11, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): in front of an overwing exit row, so recline is likely limited
- Row 29, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): last row of the cabin, with lavatories or a galley drawn right behind it: recline is likely limited and there is traffic and noise.
Vueling Airbus A320-200 (180 seats)
180 seats: 26 good, 10 mixed, 12 to avoid
Best seats
- Row 1, seats A, C, D and F (Space One): space One, the front row: about 20% more room than a standard seat by Vueling's figures, nobody in front and first off the plane. The front lavatory and galley are just ahead.
- Rows 2–4, seats A, C, D and F (Space Plus): space Plus: one of the extra-room rows 2 to 4 Vueling sells near the front, with priority boarding and a quick exit.
- Rows 2–4, seats B and E (Space Plus): space Plus: Vueling's extra-room rows 2 to 4
- Row 14, seats A and F (Economy): second overwing exit row: extra legroom, a window, and seats that should recline; you must be able to help in an emergency.
Seats to avoid
- Row 11, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): row in front of the overwing exits: recline is likely limited.
- Row 31, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): last row, against the rear lavatory and galley: likely limited recline, galley noise and the queue beside you.
