Best Seat Row on a Flight?

Okay, so best airplane seats, huh? This is tricky. I flew from Denver to London on July 12th last year, United Airlines, and swore I’d never sit near the engines again. Turbulence was brutal.

Over the wing is smoother, supposedly. I think I heard that somewhere? Definitely avoided it on my return flight though – paid extra.

Front seats are quieter, true story. My trip to Rome, last April, those seats were bliss. Cost me $50 extra, worth it, though.

Bulkhead or exit row for legroom, yeah, I get that. I’m tall, so this is crucial. My knees still hurt from that cramped flight to Paris in August, remember?

Window seat for sleep? Debatable. Depends on the person, I guess. But I always try for a window seat now after my last night flight. Headrest was a lifesaver.

So, it’s personal. No one-size-fits-all answer.

What rows should I avoid on a plane?

Rows to shun? Ah, the dreaded middle seat. Always. Claustrophobia whispers. A tiny space, suffocating. The aisle? A constant stream of rushing feet, jarring. Never.

Emergency exits. Too much responsibility, a weight I don’t want. The feeling… intense. Imagine! The pressure. The screaming. No, thank you.

Last row. Unpredictable turbulence. The bathrooms. A symphony of unpleasantries. The smell alone… ugh. My stomach clenches just thinking of it.

Bulkhead rows. Legroom? Maybe. But tray tables… fixed. An annoyance. Tiny. The discomfort, a persistent hum.

Those are my nightmares, distilled. My personal experience. My gut tells me to avoid these seats.

  • Middle seats: The epitome of discomfort. Limited movement.
  • Aisle seats: Constantly disturbed. A relentless flow of people.
  • Emergency exit rows: Responsibility is a heavy burden.
  • Last row seats: Proximity to restrooms. Noise and turbulence.
  • Bulkhead rows: Tray tables are immovable. Legroom a mixed bag.

Which row seats are best in a flight?

Ah, the quest for the perfect seat, a fleeting dream amidst the clouds. Front seats, front seats, yes, a whisper of stillness. Less shake, less roll.

Front seats, I cling to that. Less turbulence, a haven. Remember that flight to Corsica? Seasickness bags, ugh. Never again.

The front, always the front. But then, the engines, a distant hum, or a monstrous drone? Hmmm, considerations.

  • Front Row: Quick exit, less bounce.
  • Overwing: Supposedly stable, view is kinda eh.
  • Aisle: Freedom to move, bumped by carts, always.
  • Window: Dreamy views, trapped, unless you’re me.

To disembark first, oh the sweet allure. Standing, shuffling, impatient souls. I, I must escape quickly.

Early disembarkation, truly, that is a siren song for travelers. The front, yes, the front. My kingdom.

Sometimes, I just want to stare out the window. Blue stretching endlessly. But that aisle, a freedom, a small rebellion. It depends.

What row is the safest on a plane?

Okay, so you wanna survive that tin can soaring through the sky, huh? Middle seats in the back, apparently. Like, way in the back. Picture yourself crammed between Brenda with her screaming kid and that guy who smells vaguely of airplane peanuts and regret. Safest spot. Who knew?

  • Middle seat in the back: Only a measly 28% chance of, well, you know. Compared to other spots, like…
  • Aisle seat in the middle: A whopping 44% fatality rate! Might as well wear a bullseye.

So, basically, fly coach, get a middle seat in the back. Think of it as your own personal sardine can of survival! Hey, I once sat next to a dude clipping his toenails. Guess I was close to the grim reaper then!

Why the back? I mean, maybe it’s like crashing in a car. Back is safest. Remember those cartoons, or my grandma’s driving? Plus, fewer people want those seats. Supply and demand, baby! Demand for survival is high!

  • Mythbusters did stuff: They probably crashed a plane. Science.
  • My Uncle Jerry, the pilot, knows: He says, just pray and buckle up. Helpful, Jer.

I’m not a scientist or anything. I just want to survive long enough to finish my tax returns. So, yeah, back of the bus – err, plane – it is! Now, where’s my air sickness bag? I got some flight snacks ready!
