This airplane may accommodate 240 passengers in three classes: diamond first, pearl business and coral economy.

First three rows represent seats of first class. There are totally 12 closed suites here. These suites have 180 degree recline. The only disadvantage of the seats of the 1st and 3rd rows is close location of the galleys and lavatories.

Behind the seats of the first class 28 flat bed seats of the business class are located. Passengers of the seats of the 5th row will feel comfortable thanks to extra legroom. However, other passengers tend to congregate in the area of these seats in order to visit lavatories and thus causing discomfort to passengers.

The noise from the galleys located behind may cause discomfort to passengers of the seats of the 11th row.

Economy class mat transport 200 passengers. The seats of the economy class are divided into two sections.

First section contains 9 rows of seats: 8 of them have 2-4-2 configuration and 1 rows with 4 seats. Passengers of the seats of the 15th row will take advantage of extra space for their legs. Among disadvantages of these seats: location of the galleys in front, lack of floor storage during take-off and landing and reduced width.

Location of the lavatories behind will cause discomfort to passengers of the seats 22C, 22DEFG, 22H and the seats of the 23rd row. Limited recline is another disadvantage of the seats 22DEFG, 22AC and 22HK.

The second section of economy class seats is located behind the exit row. Thanks to the exit row located in front the seats of the 24th row offer extra legroom. However, as the tray tables are built-in the armrests the width of these seats is reduced a little. Also these seats have no floor storage during take-off and landing and are located close to lavatories.

The seats 36D and 36G are often bumped by service carts due to missing seats behind. The main disadvantages of the seats 37DFG is reduced width and limited legroom.

Passengers of the seats AC and HK of the rows 37-39 may feel neck strain while watching TVs that are located on the backs of the seats in front that are misaligned. Also these seats may feel narrower and cramped due to curvature of the airplane.

Location of the lavatory will cause discomfort to passengers of the seats 39C, 39D, 39G and 39H.

Limited recline and location of the galley and lavatories behind make the seats of the 40th row bad seats.
