Budget operators and charter flights fly only in economy classes, then the number of passenger seats increases to 220 seats. If you want your flight to be comfortable, it is better to familiarize yourself with the aircraft diagram in advance. The scheme of the Airbus 321 aircraft is presented on the Aeroflot website, which makes it easier to find the best places before the trip.

Now it is worth considering in more detail the configuration of this airbus at Aeroflot. The most popular air carrier has 30 A321 aircraft, and produces regular domestic, international, charter flights. The figure below shows a diagram of the Airbus A321 cabin to make it easier for passengers to navigate. There are business class and economy class seats.

The best seats on the A321

So, we go to the website of the most popular air carrier, find the "Reference Information" section, then "On Board", then "Seating Map", and then choose the Airbus A321 (cabin diagram) - the best places of Aeroflot here can be well considered. It is worth dwelling in more detail on the best and worst seats on the plane, we will explain why it is better to take one or another seat or not to take it.

As can be seen from the figure, the eighth row and seats A and F in “line” 20 are considered the best seats. Rows 1-7 are provided for business class passengers, here the distance between the seats is wider, the passage is larger. However, it is better not to choose the first and seventh rows, because the first row is located near the toilet, and the seventh is close to the economy class, and there, as a rule, it is noisier than in the business class.

Good, standard, bad seats in the Airbus A321

Looking at the A321 aircraft (diagram), the best seats seem to be in eighth row. The fact is that there is an emergency exit, so there is plenty of legroom. And getting up from these places, you will not disturb any of the neighbors. Also, these places are located at the beginning of the plane, which means that food will be delivered from your seats. The eighth row is rightfully considered a place of increased comfort.

Rows 9 to 17 there are standard places, and now row 18 it differs in that there is a toilet nearby and this is not very comfortable for passengers, there will almost always be near you:

queue to the toilet room;
often walk people;
can hook if you are sitting in the last row.

Salon Airbus A321

Passengers 19 row there will be enough free space to put your feet, only there is a toilet nearby, which can spoil the impression when traveling. But the seats of the 20th row compare favorably with the presence of free legroom, and the presence of a porthole through which you can admire the beauties of flying countries, seas, oceans.

Rows 21 to 30 standard places follow again, nothing particularly stands out, either for good or for bad. But places C and D of the 30th row and the whole 31st are considered bad. "Line" 31 is again, near the toilet, and the backs of the seats of the last row do not recline. Food and drinks will be brought to you last, there is no way to speed up the process here, you will have to wait until the flight attendants serve all the passengers sitting in front of you. Take these places only as a last resort, if you need to fly, and there are no other options.

Airbus A321 cabin map

It uses 3 options for the layout of the Airbus A321 cabin, and all of them are divided into 2 classes: economic and business. They differ only in the ratio of the number of seats in these classes. All of these cabin seating options have their best and worst seats. Consider these three modifications and determine the best places for a comfortable flight. Schemes of the cabin of the Airbus A321 of Aeroflot airlines:

Option 1

This configuration includes 156 seats.

Business class covers rows 1 to 7. It is located in the nose of the aircraft. The layout of the seats according to the scheme 2-2 in a row. Seats in this class are considered the most comfortable. Armchairs have the same characteristics, but rows 1 and 7 can be distinguished as less comfortable than others. Row 1 is located near the kitchen and bathroom and is separated from them by a partition, this can cause inconvenience. Row 7 - the last row of the business class, behind it there is a wall, noise from the economy class can be heard through it.

Economy class starts from row 8 and ends at row 31.

8 row is considered very convenient. In front of it are emergency exits and this is the first row of the economy class. The extra space up front and the fact that your food is served first makes these places comfortable.

18 row is in front of the bathroom. Unpleasant smell, pandemonium and motionless seat backs are the main disadvantages of this row.

19th row of chairs B, C, D, E and 20th row A, F - places after emergency exits. There is more extra legroom.

30 row is located close to the toilet rooms, from which unpleasant smells and sounds come. The constant movement of people also makes these places less comfortable.

31 row - the last. The backs of the chairs do not recline, as there is a bathroom behind this row. The series has shortcomings and the 30th series.

Option 2

This configuration includes 174 seats.

Rows 1-4 are business class. Rows 1-4 have the same disadvantages as the first and last rows of the business class option 1.

Economy class is 8-35 rows.

The 8th row is located immediately behind the screen, which causes inconvenience - a feeling of a closed space.

The 10th row is located in front of the emergency exits - the backs of the seats do not fall.

11 row - the row is located after the emergency exits, which guarantees additional space in front. Seats A, F are deformed and therefore uncomfortable.

23 row has a lot of legroom due to emergency exits.

34 and 35 rows are similar to the last rows of option 1.

Option 3

This configuration includes 180 seats.

1-10 rows correspond to the first ten rows of option 2.

11 row is located at the emergency exit. There is plenty of room up front. Place A is deformed.

The 22nd row is similar to the 18th row of option 1.

23 row near the emergency exit. Seats A, B, C, E, F available.

24 row place D. There is a lot of legroom in front of him, since there is no neighbor in front.

35 D, E, F and 36 A, B, C are the last places in the cabin.

Seats in the economy class of superior comfort may cost more, check this on the official website or with airport employees.
Prefer to enjoy the view from your window? Do not choose seats in the middle of the aircraft. Wings will limit the view.
Seats at emergency exits are not available to certain categories of passengers: pregnant women, passengers with children, the disabled and foreigners who do not speak Russian or English.
The tail section of the air carrier is the noisiest due to the proximity of the engines.

When choosing places to fly, rely on your own needs. But first, familiarize yourself with the layout of the cabin of the aircraft that will transport you. It is most convenient to get acquainted with the information on the official website of the airline. Have a comfortable flight with Airbus A321!

Ural Airlines owns 10 Airbus A321 aircraft (Airbus A321). Liners are far from new: from 1998 to 2006 of release. Aircraft tail numbers: VQ-BOF, VQ-BKJ, VQ-BKH, VQ-BKG, VQ-BDA, VQ-BOC, VQ-BCX, VQ-BOB, VQ-BOZ, VP-BVP.

Absolutely all liners were purchased from operating airlines, that is, already “used”. Former users include MyTravel, Cyprus Turkish Airlines (KTHY), Atlasjet, Aviation Capital Group (ACG), Solaris Airlines, Air Jamaica, Turkuaz Airlines, ILFC, Airworld, Flying Colors Airlines, Air Mediterranee and some others. Most of the aircraft, before being acquired by Ural Airlines, flew for at least three airlines.

All 10 aircraft have a single-class configuration with 220 economy class seats. Nordwind Airlines has a similar configuration (the plane will also accommodate 220 passengers). The cabin layout is available on the official website of Ural Airlines:

Let's try to study the scheme in more detail and highlight the best and worst places in the layout of this aircraft.
Row 1. These are good places. The front rows are always one of the best seats on an airplane. Although the distance to the partition is small (you can’t stretch your legs far), there is more space for your knees than in standard rows. Also a plus is the fact that no one will throw a chair on you. In conditions of close seating in economy class, this is a significant advantage. In addition, in the forefront there are practically no problems with air conditioning. What we will not say, for example, about the rows in the tail of the aircraft.
The disadvantages of the first row include the presence in the immediate vicinity of the kitchen and toilets. Extra movement and smells can somewhat spoil the impression of the flight. Also, a partition will loom in front of your eyes all the way.
Row 10. There are comments for this series. The backs of the seats here are limited in reclining, as there is an emergency exit behind. Not very comfortable to fly in one back position.
Row 11. The best seats on this plane are in front of the emergency exit. The front row seats are locked so they won't recline on you. There's also plenty of legroom, as the emergency exit increases the distance to the front row. There are only 4 seats in a row, so it is convenient to fly as a couple or a family of 4 people.
There are also disadvantages, although not significant. Some passengers note that it is a little colder here. Apparently from behind the emergency exit door. Also, for safety reasons, aisles in a row cannot be laid with hand luggage. Passengers with small children, the elderly, the disabled, pregnant women and passengers with animals will not be placed on the 11th row.
Row 12. Seats A and F. Due to the missing seats in the front row, there is a lot of legroom here. For the same reasons, no one will lean back on you.
However, pay attention. According to passenger reviews, some aircraft in the 11th row have additional seats A and F. In this case, these seats will no longer have all of the above advantages. Please check with the front desk for details.
Row 25. For the same reasons as in the 10th row, the seat backs are locked and do not recline.
Row 26. Good places to fly, have the same advantages as row 11. Only there are not four, but all six seats in a row. Seats A and F have characteristic disadvantages - there may be no armrests on the side of the aircraft wall. Also, those who like to stare out the window of the aircraft may be disappointed, since the window is either missing here or not located very conveniently.
Row 37 Seat D. The chair is extreme to the aisle, and due to the close location of the toilets, passengers will constantly touch you here.
Row 37 and 38. One of the worst places. The row rests against the wall of the toilet, so the backs of the seats are limited in reclining. There are always a lot of people, there are always queues and there is an unpleasant smell. Not infrequently in the last row there are problems with air conditioning - it is either stuffy or cold here.

Airbus A321 cabin layout of Turkish Airlines

Airbus industrie A321 is an improved version of the narrow-body A320 with two engines - the cabin is longer, which means more seats.

Airbus A321 Turkish Airlines

use two modifications of the aircraft cabin Airbus A321. They differ in the number of seats in business class and economy cabin. Let's consider them in more detail to determine best and worst places.

Option 1

In the first variant, the layout of the cabin consists of two classes of service: business and economy. In each of them there are more and less comfortable places. Consider the salons in more detail.

Business Class

In business class, there are three rows of three seats on both sides. However, the middle seat always remains free for the convenience of passengers; tickets for it are not sold. Plenty of space between chairs. There is a separate bathroom, next to the kitchen. If you are looking for a comfortable flight with top-notch service, then the seats in this row are just right for you.

Economy class

In the economy class, the seats are arranged according to the “3:3” pattern in a row, except for the 9th and 23rd rows - they do not have seats A, F. The toilet rooms that are intended for this class are located only at the end of the aircraft.

Economy class starts from 4 rows and ends at 34. The first row after the business class is separated from it by a partition. This causes some discomfort, because. there may be a sense of confinement. But on the other hand, more free legroom is allocated.

Seats located near emergency exits may not be occupied by all passengers. Cannot fly on these seats: children, pregnant women, disabled people and foreigners who do not speak Turkish or English. It is necessary to store luggage during the flight on a special shelf; it is forbidden to leave it near the aisle.

34 row- the last in the cabin. Behind it are the toilets. This guarantees pandemonium, unpleasant smell and noise. And the backs of the seats are not movable. All this makes the 34th row the most inconvenient for travel.

Best Places

1-3 rows - business class;
9 row seats B, C, D, E;
10 row - A and F;
24 row.

Worst Places

8 row;
23 row seats B, C, D, E;
34 row.

Option 2

Business Class

In this variation of the layout of the aircraft cabin seats in the business class, there are 5 rows, but there are 2 seats on each side, there is no free space between the seats, so passengers here feel more cramped than in the "business" option 1. In general, the salon has the same characteristics and privileges as option 1.

Economy class

This class starts from row 6 and continues up to row 32.

6 row located immediately after the partition and before the emergency exit. All this gives extra legroom, but also a feeling of an enclosed space, motionless seatbacks.

7 row similar to the 9th row of option 1, 8th row - 10th row.

20 and 21 rows similar to 23 and 24 rows of variation 1.

32 row- the last row. It has the same characteristics as the 34th row of the previous version.

1-5 rows - business class;
7 row seats B, C, D, E;
8 row - A, F;
21 row.

Worst Places

6 row;
20 row seats B, C, D, E;

There is no business class on board the Airbus A321 of Ural Airlines, and three conditional economy class sectors are allocated only through emergency exits.

The carrier does not indicate the best places in the Airbus A321 on the official diagram. However, according to reviews and common practice, the most comfortable places to fly will be seats with increased legroom, located in front of emergency exits. On the Airbus A321 cabin diagram, such places are: 11th row - all, 12th row - A, F, 26th row - all.

The worst places, traditionally, are near the toilet (reclining back of the chair is limited, there is little space for hand luggage) and every average of 3.

Business class - 8 seats in rows 1, 2;
Economy class - 189 seats;
Extra legroom seats - 10th row seats A, F; 23rd row - all or only extreme.
