What row should I sit in first class?

Front Row: Seats in the front row of the first-class cabin often offer extra legroom and more privacy. They are usually away from the galley and lavatories, resulting in a quieter and more relaxed flying experience.



Choosing the “best” row in first class depends on your personal priorities and the specific aircraft. Here’s a breakdown to help you decide:

Front Row (Row 1 or 2)

  • Pros: You’ll be the first to deplane. Often closest to the lavatory (but not too close on most wide-bodies). On some airlines, you get your meal choice first. It can feel more private and exclusive.
  • Cons: You might be close to the galley, which can mean more light and noise from the crew during service and while they prepare for landing. The bulkhead wall means your underseat storage is limited (you must stow all bags overhead for takeoff/landing). On some planes, the seat may have the entertainment screen in the armrest or on a less flexible bulkhead mount.

Middle Rows

  • Pros: Often considered the “sweet spot.” You’re away from the main galley noise and lavatory traffic. You typically have underseat storage in front of you. The cabin feels quieter and more settled.
  • Cons: You’re not first off the plane. You might be farther from the lavatory.

Last Row of First Class

  • Pros: Usually the quietest and most secluded spot, farthest from the galley and boarding door noise. You can often recline without feeling anyone behind you (since it’s either a wall or the premium economy cabin).
  • Cons: You’ll be among the last to deplane from the first class cabin. You might be closer to the lavatory for the cabin behind you (e.g., premium economy), which could mean some
