Seat map Airbus A330-200 Etihad Airways. Best seats in the plane

Etihad Airways operates Airbus A330-200 on long-haul routes.

This airplane may transport 262 passengers in two classes: pearl business and coral economy.

First 6 rows represent seats of business class. there are totally 22 seats here. These seats have 180 degree recline.

The only disadvantage of the seats of the 5th row is close location of the galleys and lavatories.

Noise from the galley located behind the seats 10DG will cause discomfort to passengers of these seats.

Behind the exit row 2 sections of economy class seats are located. Coral economy class contains 240 seats. Most of them have 2-4-2 configuration.

First section consists of 17 rows: 16 rows have 2-4-2 configuration and 1 row contains 4 seats.

Passengers of the seats of the 15th row will take advantage of extra legroom. However, as the tray tables are in the armrests, the width of these seats is reduced a little. Other passengers tend to congregate in this area in order to visit lavatories and causing discomfort to passengers of these seats. Lack of floor storage during take-off and landing is another disadvantage of these seats. Passengers with babies are often seated on the seats 15DEFG as they offer bassinet locations.

Missing windows make the seats 17A and 17K bad seats.

Because of the exit row located behind the seats 31AC and 31HK as well as the seats 32DEFG are less reclining than standard.

Second section of economy class seats is located behind the exit row. Thanks to the exit row located in front the seats of the 33rd row offer extra legroom. Among disadvantages of these seats: reduced width and lack of floor storage during take-off and landing. The seats 33C, 33DEFG and 33H are considered good seats. Extra legroom of the seats 33A and 33K is reduced a little as the exit door protrudes inside.

As there are no seats behind the seats 41D and 41G are often bumped by other passengers and crew members passing by.

The main disadvantages of the seats 42DFG are: limited legroom and reduced width as the tray tables are in the armrests making them immovable.

The seats AC and HK of the rows 42-44 may feel narrower and cramped because of the curvature of the airplane. Also, these seats may cause neck strain to passengers as the TV screens are located on the backs of the seats in front that are misaligned.

Close location of the lavatories will represent problem to passengers of the seats 44D and 44G.

Location of the lavatories and galleys behind and limited recline make the seats of the last 45th row bad seats.
