Iberia Airbus A350-900 (A350-900, 348 seats)
348 seats: 29 good, 28 mixed, 16 to avoid
Best seats
- Rows 2, 4 and 6, seat A (Business): window-side seat in Iberia's staggered Business cabin: set against the window with the aisle further away, the most private kind of seat here.
- Rows 3, 5 and 7, seats E and G (Business): one of the two centre seats drawn side by side in this row: the best pair for two people travelling together.
- Rows 3, 5 and 7, seat L (Business): window-side seat in Iberia's staggered Business cabin: set against the window with the aisle further away, the most private kind of seat here.
- Row 11, seats A, C, J and L (Premium Economy): exit row on Iberia's plan, with open floor in front at the door: lots of legroom, though people pass through to the door and lavatories.
Seats to avoid
- Row 36, seats A, B, C, D, E, H, J, K and L (Economy): row 36 backs onto the lavatories Iberia draws behind it mid-cabin: queues beside you and likely limited recline.
- Row 53, seats D, E and H (Economy): next to a galley, with light and noise during service
- Row 54, seats B, C, J and K (Economy): last row of Economy, with lavatories and galleys drawn right behind it: expect queues and galley noise.
