The best seat depends on the venue and your priorities—whether it’s comfort, view, or convenience. Here’s a quick guide based on recent insights.
Best Seats by Venue Type
- Cirque du Soleil (Las Vegas): Upper orchestra offers the best view—close to the action without straining to look up. Center stage views are ideal if available.
- Sphere Las Vegas (U2:UV Experience): “Not a bad seat in the house” — even 200-level seats feel central. The best views are from the 200 level toward stage left. 🔗
- Virgin Atlantic A350 Upper Class: Row 1 provides extra legroom and foot space. Row 11 is near the bar but quiet. 🔗
- British Airways A320 Club Europe: 1C offers improved legroom. Exit rows (11–12) provide even more space and no one in front. 🔗
- Delta 767-300: Front row C+ offers maximum legroom and no one to recline into. 🔗
- Cathay Pacific 777 First Class: 1A and 2A are best—aisle access on the left side with more privacy. 🔗
- Emirates A380 Business Class: Bulkhead rows offer more privacy and extra footroom. 🔗
- Marriott Bonvoy Suite (O2 Arena, London): Front stadium seating offers the best view. Bar seating is comfortable but less ideal for sightlines. 🔗
- Airlines (General): Aisle seats win for ease of movement and access. Avoid window seats unless you prefer the view.🔗

Flight Review: Virgin Atlantic’s New A350 Upper Class || It’s Awesome…
There are some flying experiences that aim to impress you from the word “go”. Not once you’re through security, or when you’ve 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, it’s been let down by one thing, and pretty much one thing only – old seats. Travellers would always say that they love the feeling of flying Virgin, but the damned Upper Class seat just wasn’t quite up to its new, more modern peers, especially as

Light My Way – 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. Let’s dig in to my highlights from the U2:UV

Aisle Seats Win: 6 Reasons Smart Flyers Never Pick The Window
The best flyers prefer aisle seats, and airlines even value the business more of those who do. Aisle seats are just better than window seats, and we don’t even need to talk about the dreaded middle. If you’re in the aisle seat you don’t get those window seat views, but those are better in theory than practice outside of the first and final minutes of a flight. And you do have to get up to let other passengers into the aisle if they need to use the restroom. So there are tradeoffs, but they’re minor compared to the 6

Best Emirates A380 Business Class Seats: My Picks
I recently shared my experience flying Emirates’ Airbus A380 business class. Emirates is known for its Airbus A380s, and the airline has a massive fleet of these, comprised of over 100 jets. Given just how many people fly Emirates’ A380 in business class, plus the variance in quality between seats, I figured I’d share my take on the best seats in the cabin, and what you should consider. In this post: Emirates’ Airbus A380 business class is located on the upper deck of the world’s largest commercial jet. There are two general Emirates A380 configurations. The
