Which aircraft has the best cabin pressure?

The Boeing 787 Dreamliner series can fly at lower altitudes, making fluctuating cabin pressure less of an issue for long-haul passengers. Additionally, the series boasts better humidity control, cleaner air, improved temperature control and technology that provide a smoother ride from take-ff to landing.

Airbus A220 — the most comfortable economy Even inside, the plane is exceptionally comfortable. The cabin is only in a 2-3 configuration (rather than a 3-3 configuration), and features the widest economy seats in the industry. On top of that, thanks to the layout, 80% of passengers have either an aisle or window seat.

Airbus single aisle aircraft such as the A320 have a wider fuselage compared to the Boeing 737. This allows for a seat that is 18” in width, giving you more comfort. Also, having a wider fuselage allows for a wider aisle and this allows better flow when moving to another seat, the lavatory or galley.
