The best seats at events and in aircraft vary by venue and configuration, but several patterns emerge from the sources.
Best Seats on Airplanes
- On Delta One Business Class 767, the best window seats are in even-numbered rows, offering more privacy and less aisle traffic.
- On EVA Air Business Class 787, the best window seats are in rows 2, 5, and 7, which are farther from the aisle and offer better privacy.đ
- On Virgin Atlantic A350 Upper Class, row 1 offers the most space and comfort, while row 11 is ideal for accessing the loft bar and quiet areas.
Best Seats at Live Events
- At sumo tournaments, the best views are from box seats on the 1st floor (especially Section A) or the first row of the 2nd floor, where you avoid obstructions from people walking in front.
- At Sphere in Las Vegas, the “not a bad seat in the house” rule appliesâseats on the 200 level toward stage left provide excellent views and immersive experience.
- For Cirque du Soleil, the upper orchestra offers a balanced view, close to the action without needing to tilt your head up too much.đ
Best Seats in Concert and Sports Arenas
- Qantas Economy Plus offers front-row access to Platinum and Platinum One members, with priority access to overhead bins as a bonus.
- At the O2 Arena, the front of the Marriott Bonvoy suite offers the best view, with two dedicated seats and good legroom.đ
For optimal experience, always consider timingâarriving early can allow seat switching, especially at sumo events or large concerts.The Travel Sisters +1

Review: Delta One Business Class Boeing 767 (JFK-LAX)
For the last segment of my Aria Suite Adventure to Hong Kong, I flew Deltaâs Boeing 767-400ER business class (marketed as âDelta Oneâ), on the six hour flight from New York (JFK) to Los Angeles (LAX). Delta has a fleet of over 60 767s, and while they operate select premium transcon flights, they also operate some long haul flights to Europe, South America, etc. Ultimately for a flight across the country, I found this to be perfectly pleasant, with comfortable enough flat beds, very friendly service, extensive entertainment, and free Wi-Fi. For that matter, the best part of the

Tips for Watching Sumo Wrestling in Japan in 2026 and 2027
Everything you need to know about how to watch sumo wrestling in Tokyo, Japan in 2025 and 2026: When and how to buy tickets, where to sit and tips for the best experience. We were determined to view a sumo wrestling match during our first trip to Japan. There were no tournaments that month so we took a very early train ride into a non-touristy part of Tokyo to watch the wrestlers practice at a sumo stable. As luck would have it, practice was canceled that day. Fortunately, our next trip to Tokyo was during a Sumo Grand Tournament

Review: EVA Air Business Class Boeing 787 (TPE-HKG)
For the first portion of my long journey to Abu Dhabi, I flew EVA Air. In the previous installment I reviewed my EVA Air 777-300ER business class flight from Houston to Taipei, and in this installment Iâm reviewing my EVA Air 787-9 business class flight from Taipei to Hong Kong. To cut to the chase, my EVA Air Boeing 787 business class flight was exceptional â the 787s have modern seats, the food and drinks were great, and the service was friendly. And while the airline flies this plane on some long haul routes, itâs even more of a

Light My Way â The U2:UV Experience at Sphere Las Vegas
I recently returned from Las Vegas astonished that it all went to plan. Seemingly forever ago, I (and many other U2 fans) heard rumors of possible shows at some over the top venue under construction in Vegas. Even if the rumors of U2 shows at Sphere were true, health matters would prevent drummer Larry Mullen, Jr. from participating. Even if they could commit, who would be on the kit? Would Sphere be completed on time? Could I even score tickets? Indeed, everything aligned for a truly magnificent event earlier this month. Letâs dig in to my highlights from the U2:UV

Flight Review: Virgin Atlanticâs New A350 Upper Class || Itâs AwesomeâŚ
There are some flying experiences that aim to impress you from the word âgoâ. Not once youâre through security, or when youâve arrived at your seat, but the very moment you arrive at the airport. Virgin Atlantic Upper Class has long aimed to offer this level of excitement, but for around 10 years, itâs been let down by one thing, and pretty much one thing only â old seats. Travellers would always say that they love the feeling of flying Virgin, but the damned Upper Class seat just wasnât quite up to its new, more modern peers, especially as

QANTAS: âEconomy Plusâ now launched
Qantas has now launched its newest cabin product, and as of today, Monday 2 February, itâs available for booking. Economy Plus was first announced back in November 2025. The product, which provides four extra inches, increases the seat pitch at the front of the economy section from 30 to 34 inches. It means Qantas is going to sacrifice, say, a row of capacity for comfort for its premium flyers, who donât, or canât buy Business Class. It brings Premium Economy (sort of) to domestic flying. The issue is that Virgin Australia did it some time ago and is apparently
