First cabin version of the Airbus A330-300 (333) V1

This airplane offers 263 seats of three classes: business, economy comfort and economy.


Business class seats are located in two sections and may accommodate 45 passengers. The seats of business class have 60 inches pitch and 21 inches width.

First section of business class seats consists of 7 rows that offer 32 flat bed seats. The seats of the 1st row have the following disadvantages: lack of floor storage during take-off and landing and noise from the galley and lavatory located in front of these seats.

The only disadvantage of the seats 7D, 7H and 7L is close location of the galley behind.

Second section of business class seats is located behind exit row, lavatory and galley. There are 3 rows of seats here that offer 13 seats. Noise from the lavatory and galley located nearby and no floor storage during takeoff and landing are the disadvantages of the seats of the 8th row.

Behind Business class seats 6 rows of Economy Comfort seats are located. These seats have 2-4-2 configuration. Pitch of these seats is 21-25 inches and the width is 18 inches.

Passengers of the seats of the 21st row will take advantage of extra legroom. However, as the tray tables and TV displays are located in the armrests, the width of these seats is reduced a little. Also these seats have no floor storage during takeoff and landing. Anyway, the seats 21AC and 21JL are considered the best seats. Passengers travelling with infants are often seated on the seats 21DEGH because these seats offer bassinets.

Economy class seats are located right behind economy comfort seats. Economy class may accommodate 178 passengers on the seats that have 32 inches pitch and 18 inches width.

The seats of the economy class are divided into two sections. First section contains 7 rows of seats: 6 of them have 2-4-2 configuration and 1 row with 2 seats. Congregation of passengers who are waiting to use lavatories will cause discomfort to passengers of the seats 31C, 31DEGH, 31JL and 32AC. In addition the seats 31DEGH, 31JL and 32AC are less reclining than standard.

Behind lavatories and exit row second section of economy class seats is located.

Thanks to the exit row located in front passengers of the seats of the 41st row will feel comfortable because these seats offer additional legroom. Among disadvantages of these seats: reduced width because the tray tables and personal TV are built-in the armrests making them immovable, lack of floor storage during take-off and landing and location of the lavatories in front. Protrusion of the exit doors inside the cabin is another disadvantage of the seats 41A and 41J.

Due to awkward transition of the middle seats from 4 to 3, the seats 53D and 53H are often bumped by service carts but personal TV in the seatbacks in front are misaligned that may cause discomfort to passengers ofthe seats 54DEH.

The only disadvantage of the seats 56D and 56H is close location of the galley and lavatory.

The seats 56AC, 56JL and 57DEH are considered bad seats because they may be less reclining than standard or not recline at all and because of the noise from the lavatory and galley located behind.

Second cabin version of the Airbus A330-300 (333) V2

Second version of Airbus A330-300 may accommodate 289 passengers in three classes.

The seats of the rows 1-7 offer seats of business class. There are totally 32 flat bed seats here. These seats offer 60 inches pitch and 21 inches width. Noise from the galley and lavatory located in front of the seats of the 1st row will cause discomfort to passengers of these seats.

Galleys located behind are the main disadvantage of the seats 7DH and 7L.

Behind exit row 40 seats of economy comfort class are located. The seats in this class have 35-37 inches pitch and 18 inches width.

The seats of the economy comfort class are located in the rows 21-25 and have 2-4-2 configuration.

Passengers of the seats of the 21st row will feel comfortable thanks to additional space for their legs. The seats 21AC and 21JL are considered the best seats despite such disadvantages as: reduced width and no floor storage during take-off and landing. The seats 21DEGH have the same disadvantages plus close location of the galleys and lavatory.

Economy class seats offer 32 inches pitch and 18 inches width. 217 passengers may be accommodated in this class. Noise from the lavatories located behind will cause discomfort to passengers of the seats 36C, 36DEGH, 36JL and 37AC.

Behind another exit row second section of economy class is located.

The seats of the 41st row offer extra legroom to passengers. However, as the tray tables and personal TVs are built-in the armrests making them immovable the width of these seats is reduced a little. Close location of the lavatories and no floor storage during take-off and landing may be also bothersome. The seats 41A and 41L have one more disadvantage – protrusion of the exit doors inside.

The seats 53D and 53H are often bumped by other passengers and crew members passing by.

Misalignment of personal TVs is the disadvantage of the seats 54DEH.

Galley and lavatories located behind the seats 56D and 56H may cause discomfort to passengers of these seats.

Noise from the galley and lavatories and not reclining seatbacks make the seats 56AC, 56JL and 57DEH bad seats.
