Aer Lingus Airbus A321XLR (A321neo, 184 seats)
184 seats: 22 good, 6 mixed, 12 to avoid
Best seats
- Rows 3 and 5, seats A and K (Business): solo seat set in the middle of its pod, with a side table on each side and no neighbour: one of the most private Business seats on this map.
- Row 7, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): bulkhead row sold as an Extra Legroom seat: nobody in front of you, right behind the Business cabin.
- Rows 14–15, 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 13, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): in front of an overwing exit row, so recline is likely limited
- Row 34, 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.
Iberia Airbus A321XLR (A321XLR, 182 seats)
182 seats: 26 good, 6 mixed, 6 to avoid
Best seats
- Rows 1–7, seats A and F (Business): business on the A321XLR is drawn one seat on each side of the aisle, angled towards the window: every seat has the window and the aisle to itself (seat letters likely).
- Rows 28–29, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): overwing exit row on Iberia's plan: extra legroom. Passengers here must be able and willing to help in an emergency.
Seats to avoid
- Row 48, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): last row of Economy, with lavatories and galleys drawn right behind it: expect queues and galley noise.
