Travels: Planes

Do you know how to find the best seat when booking your long flight? Here are some things to consider…

Know your plane model. For long haul flights, the most spacious double decker Airbus A380 is your best bet. With larger windows, HD video screens, and lower cabin pressure, these planes make that long flight more bearable. Check out your booking website to see what plane your particular flight will use. 

Check out the airline as well. Some, such as American, are now squeezing 10 seats per row into a Boeing 777. Nine used to be the standard.

Check out the seats. Go to SeatGuru.com to see where your seat is and where the best legroom is.

Check with your airline to view all options available. Is economy your best bet? Or do you want to upgrade to premium economy or business?
