Frontier Airlines Airbus A321neo (243 seats)
243 seats: 21 good, 18 mixed, 11 to avoid
Best seats
- Row 1, seats A and C (UpFront Plus): upFront Plus front row: extra legroom, the middle seat kept empty and nobody reclining into you, though the forward lavatory is just ahead on this side. Frontier offers no seatbelt extensions in row 1 and doesn't seat infants there.
- Row 1, seats D and F (UpFront Plus): upFront Plus front row: extra legroom, the middle seat kept empty and nobody reclining into you; the block ahead on this side is likely the galley. Frontier offers no seatbelt extensions in row 1 and doesn't seat infants there.
- Row 2, seats A, C, D and F (UpFront Plus): upFront Plus: extra legroom near the front, and Frontier guarantees the middle seat beside you stays empty.
- Row 3, seats A, C, D and F (Economy): premium row right behind UpFront Plus: extra legroom close to the front, without the UpFront Plus price.
Seats to avoid
- Row 17, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): row in front of the overwing exits: recline is likely limited (Frontier's map doesn't say), with no exit-row legroom of its own.
- Row 28, seats A, B, C, D and E (Economy): row in front of the mid-cabin exit door: recline is likely limited (Frontier's map doesn't say).
Gulf Air Airbus A321neo (HD, 192 seats)
192 seats: 9 good, 14 mixed, 12 to avoid
Best seats
- Row 1, seat A (Falcon Gold): front Falcon Gold seat at the window.
- Row 3, seat D (Falcon Gold): last Falcon Gold row, away from the front galley and toilet.
- Row 8, seat A (Economy): first Economy row, behind the Falcon Gold cabin, with no one in front.
- Row 20, seats A, B, D, E and F (Economy): exit row with extra legroom
Seats to avoid
- Row 18, seats A, B, D, E and F (Economy): in front of an exit row, so recline is likely limited
- Row 18, seat C (Economy): in front of the overwing exits, so recline is likely limited.
- Row 38, seat A (Economy): last row, against the rear toilets.
- Row 38, seats B and C (Economy): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing
