150 seats: 9 good, 14 mixed, 12 to avoid
Best seats
- Row 1, seat A (Falcon Gold): front Falcon Gold seat at the window.

- Row 8, seat A (Economy): first Economy row, behind the Falcon Gold cabin, with no one in front.
- Row 15, seats A, B, D, E and F (Economy): exit row with extra legroom
Seats to avoid
- Row 12, seats A, B, D, E and F (Economy): in front of an exit row, so recline is likely limited

- Row 31, seats B, C, D, E and F (Economy): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing
Vueling Airbus A320neo (186 seats)

- 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.
