The best seats on a flight depend on your priorities—window, aisle, legroom, or proximity to amenities. Here’s a concise breakdown based on recent reviews and seat configurations.
Best Window Seats
- Window seats in even-numbered rows on Delta’s 767-300 offer the most privacy and are less likely to be bumped into.
- On EVA Air’s 787, window seats in rows 2, 5, and 7 are ideal due to their distance from the aisle and enhanced privacy.🔗
- Virgin Atlantic’s A350 Upper Class row 1 seats offer extra bed width and footroom, making them the most comfortable for long flights.🔗
Best Aisle Seats
- Aisle seats in odd-numbered rows on Delta’s 767-300 are less ideal due to proximity to the aisle and higher risk of being disturbed.
- On EVA Air’s 787, aisle seats in rows 1, 3, 6, and 8 are still good but offer slightly less privacy than window seats in even rows.
Best for Privacy and Comfort
- Virgin Atlantic’s row 11 seats are near the bar but surprisingly quiet, ideal for travelers wanting easy access to amenities without noise disruption.
- United’s new Polaris business class seats, based on the Adient Ascent design, feature larger entertainment screens and improved layout, with bulkhead rows offering premium space.🔗
Best for Families or Groups
- Middle seats (D and G) on Virgin Atlantic’s A350 are ideal for couples or friends who want to talk easily, with privacy screens that can be lowered.
- Premium seating at the Great Tennessee Air Show (rows A–D) offers reserved, front-row views with in-and-out privileges, perfect for families.🔗
Best for Luxury and Experience
- The Flight Line Club at the Great Tennessee Air Show offers private tables, catered meals, and exclusive access—ideal for VIPs.
- Marriott Bonvoy suites at London’s O2 Arena feature stadium seating with excellent stage views, perfect for concerts or events.🔗

Review: Delta One Business Class Boeing 767 (JFK-LAX)
For the last segment of my Aria Suite Adventure to Hong Kong, I flew Delta’s Boeing 767-400ER business class (marketed as “Delta One”), 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

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 I’m 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 — 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, it’s even more of a

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

Virgin Atlantic A350: Best Seats In Upper Class, Premium And Economy
There’s a seat in Virgin Atlantic’s A350-1000 economy cabin that has more legroom than any seat in premium economy, or even the airlines beautiful new upper class. Yep, In every airplane cabin, there are always going to be seats and rows which are far more desirable than others, and if you are clever enough to get in and pick one early, you’ll have a better flying experience. Who doesn’t want that? We went up and down the aisles of each Virgin Atlantic Airbus A350-1000 cabin, testing all the seats to find the best option in each, just to save
