S7 aircraft. S7 Airlines aircraft fleet: age, layouts and reviews Location of seats in the s7 aircraft cabin

Rossiya is the largest airline in the Aeroflot group. The geography of its flights covers 120 routes within the Russian Federation and 22 foreign destinations. In 2014, the Zenit football club appointed Rossiya as its official air carrier.

The main airport is Pulkovo in St. Petersburg. The aircraft fleet includes 61 aircraft, 16 of which are Boeing 737-800.

Boeing 737 airliners are used on short and medium-haul routes.

Boeing 737-800 interior diagram

Rossiya uses 3 types of seat layouts on its Boeing 737-800 aircraft. Two of them are in full economy class for 189 passengers. They differ only in the placement of the 1st row: it can start on the left side with seats A, B, C or on the right - D, E, F.

The two-salon layout is designed for 168 seats.

Is it possible to choose your own seat and fly with greater comfort? And where is the best place to sit on a Boeing 737-800?

Cabin layout for one class

Let's consider the arrangement of seats on an airplane of only one class. Rossiya has such a layout of the Boeing 737-800 cabin, designed for 189 passengers and consisting of 32 rows.

Layout for 189 passengers

Rows 1-10 - bow. If you are asked about your preferences during check-in, feel free to choose seats in this part of the plane, they are considered the most comfortable. Why?

The most comfortable in this area of ​​the Boeing 737 "Russia" are considered to be the first row A, B, C and the second D, E, F (and vice versa, see the cabin diagram). It will be comfortable for pregnant women, disabled people and passengers with small children to sit here: the space in front of the seats is very comfortable and there are holders for the cradle (see photo).

Baby bassinet in the first row

If you require a carrycot, please request it at least 36 hours before departure. Upon registration you will receive priority to use it.

Rows 11-21 – the middle part of the plane above the wings. If you are afraid of turbulence, choose places here, this zone is the most stable. The view from the windows will be partially blocked by the wings, so those who like to look out the window will not like it here.

22-32 row. The tail of the plane is the most uncomfortable area. Here you can hear the noise of the engines and feel more turbulence. The queue for the toilets is crowded at the last five rows. The worst seats are considered to be the last row. The backrests do not recline because they are blocked by a partition.

Seats near emergency exits

In front of rows 15 and 16, on both sides, there are 4 emergency exits. Sitting here is very comfortable thanks to the large space in front of the seats. If you look at the layout of the cabin, in this area the most comfortable in the Boeing 737-800 is row 16. Rossiya does not provide these seats to the following categories of passengers:

  • Passengers with children from 2 to 12 years old.
  • Unaccompanied children under 18 years of age.
  • Pregnant.
  • For passengers with animals.
  • Foreigners who do not speak Russian and English.
  • For disabled people.

These restrictions are introduced for flight safety. The people sitting here, in the event of an accident, will have to strictly follow the instructions of the pilots and flight attendants.

Best places

"" sells the best seats on the plane for an additional fee. They are called "Space+". Please check this information when checking in for your flight.

Increased comfort seats on Boeing 737-800

According to the diagram, the best seats in the Boeing 737 800 Rossiya Airlines cabin are:

  • 1 A, B, C and 2 D, E, F – wide pitch of seats and cradle mounts.

Be careful, on VQ-BUF and VQ-BUE aircraft this is:

  • 1 D, E, F and 2 A, B, C
  • 16 A, B, C, D, E, F (in all single-cabin Boeing 737 800) - large space in front of the seats.

Nice places

  • 15 A, B, C, D, E, F – comfortable legroom, but the backs of the seats are blocked.

Bad places

  • 31 C, D – aisle seats next to the toilets, there may be constant disturbance by people standing in line;
  • 32 A, B, C, D, E, F – blocked seat backs, proximity to toilets.

When can you choose the best seats on a plane? If you are flying with Rossiya on a Boeing 737-800, this can be done at check-in at the airport or independently online 24 hours before departure.

Cabin layout for two classes

Look for cheap tickets for any type of transport without leaving your home:

Boeing 737-800 "Russia" with two classes of service on board are designed for 168 passengers. According to the cabin layout, 12 seats are allocated to “business class” and 156 to “economy” class. Let's look at how to choose the best places.

100% comfort in business class

The business class cabin has 3 rows of 2 seats on each side. Comfortable space between the seats allows you to relax during the flight. This cabin is not as noisy as the “economy” one.

During the flight, business passengers can use blankets and sleep masks.

On board the aircraft you are allowed to use phones, tablets and computers without Internet access.

Comfortable stay in business class of Boeing 737-800 "Russia"

Economy class

The Boeing 737-800 has 26 rows in economy class. It starts from row 4. Let's look carefully at the diagram and choose priority places.

Rows 4-9 – bow. If these places are free, choose them. Many airlines sell them at a premium rate.

The first row is the most comfortable for passengers with infants; there are mounts for a cradle. It will also be convenient for passengers with disabilities.

The carrycot is provided for children up to one year weighing up to 9 kg.

For children over 2 years old, there is a child seat that is attached to the seat on the plane.

It is better for transit passengers to board in this part of the aircraft. After landing, they will get out faster and check in for their connecting flight. The photo shows the first row of economy class.

First row in economy class on a Boeing 737-800 Rossiya

Rows 10-17 – the middle part of the plane above the wings. If you are afraid of flying or are afraid of turbulence, choose seats in this zone, you will be more relaxed.

The view from the windows in the middle part of the plane is partially limited by the wings; for those who like to look at the panorama, this is not the best option.

Rows 12 and 13 – seats of increased comfort near emergency exits. The downside is that you can’t put bags under the seats, it’s cooler here and the seat backs in row 12 don’t recline. Not all categories of passengers may be seated in the emergency exit seats (see above in the description of the cabin with one class of service).

Rows 17-26 – tail section. The tail of an airplane is an uncomfortable zone. This is where the engine noise is loudest and chatter is greatest.

The worst seats are the aisle seats at the end of the cabin and the very last row.

Designation of seats in the cabin

All seats on the plane are indicated by letters:

  • The windows have the letters A and F. For those who fly alone, who like to read or sleep, this is the best choice.
  • Middle – B, E. It is better for people with aerophobia to sit in the middle.
  • The extreme ones are C, D. The aisle seat is good for those who like to sit with their legs stretched out or often walk around the cabin during a flight.

Best places

At Rossiya Airlines, regardless of the layout of the Boeing 737-800 cabins, these are seats with a large seat pitch:

Nice places

  • 12 A, B, C, D, E, F – large legroom, but fixed seat backs;
  • 13 A, F – there are no armrests on the side of the aircraft.

Worst places

  • 28 C, D – aisle seats next to the toilets;
  • 29 A, B, C, D, E, F – the very last row, the backs of the seats are motionless.

Video review of the aircraft

You can look at the Boeing 737-800 aircraft of Rossiya Airlines in the presentation video dedicated to the Kaluga airliner, which arrived at the airport of the same name:

To make your flight on a Boeing 737-800 comfortable, carefully study the cabin layout in advance and choose the best seats based on your own priorities. Rossiya wishes you a pleasant flight!

Flying by plane is a stressful experience for many passengers due to fear of heights or discomfort associated with enclosed spaces. To minimize discomfort, before checking in for a flight, you need to choose a suitable seat in the cabin, having first studied the layout.

We will talk about the cabin layout of the Boeing 737-800 s7 of S7 Airlines, which is in great demand due to the optimal combination of ticket price and flight quality.

Aircraft information

The Boeing 737-800 of S7 Airlines belongs to the Next Generation aircraft and is an improved version of the Boeing 737-400 family. The advantages of the new generation aircraft are obvious:

  • improved engine system;
  • presence of a digital cockpit;
  • the presence of a tail unit;
  • new wing.

Boeing is suitable for short and long term travel. This is a versatile, comfortable, safe aircraft, and it continues to be constantly improved.

Airplane Boeing 737-800

Interior layout - best seats

The cabin of the Boeing 737-800 s7 aircraft has 160 seats, 12 of which are in business class, the rest in economy class. The seats are located in 28 rows, 3 of which are business class.

Business Class

The seats in the first row of the business class cabin have both positive and negative features:

  • located near the kitchen and toilet, which is why all sorts of noises and smells can cause inconvenience to passengers;
  • There is not another row in front of you, the reclined seats of which can prevent you from relaxing.

The seats in the third business row also have a drawback: they are too close to the economy class. Of course, there is a screen that separates these halls, but it is thin and allows noise to pass through.

The seat spacing in Business Class is 87-5-97.5 cm, providing maximum legroom. There are 2 chairs on each side.

We can conclude that the best seats in Boeing business class are the second row. You won't be bothered by extraneous smells or sounds, and your neighbors won't be too active and annoying.

Economy class

The seats in the economy class lounge are located in rows 4-28. Here, every seat can present surprises to passengers. Rows with merits:

  1. Passengers in the 4th row are served first when food is served, so you will have the opportunity to enjoy your chosen hot dish. Other passengers will not constantly walk nearby, and the screams of children sitting in front will not drive them crazy. After landing, you will leave the cabin immediately. But there is a drawback: there is a screen in front that separates business class from economy class. It is impossible to stretch or place your legs in a more comfortable position. Also in front of this row there are cradles for infants - this causes inconvenience for passengers without children. This is one of the most comfortable economy rows; airlines often charge an additional fee for such seats.
  2. Rows 5 to 8, as well as 10, are ordinary, have neither distinguished advantages nor significant disadvantages. They are located in the bow and are comfortable to sit on unless there are too noisy neighbors nearby.
  3. 11 is comfortable, but the porthole is located next to the wing, which can block the view. The wing engine produces increased noise during takeoff and landing. In some cabins, the backrests of row 11 seats do not recline due to the emergency exit located nearby.
  4. 13 allows you to position your legs comfortably. There are 2, not 3, seats on each side, so if you are flying together, no one else will interfere. Of the minuses: it is impossible to recline the seat back, you cannot freely position your hand luggage, the view of the ground is completely blocked by the wing. Passengers with children, elderly people, and passengers with disabilities are prohibited from staying here. If you like to lean against the side of the plane, do not choose these seats, as there is half a meter of space between the seat and the upholstery.
  5. 14 is one of the comfortable rows of economy class. There is everything for the convenience of passengers: space for a comfortable position of the legs, space for hand luggage, reclining seat backs. However, seats A and F lack one armrest and have slightly angled seats.
  6. Rows 15 to 26 are standard, there is nothing there that can create discomfort.
The distance between rows in economy class is 72.4-80 cm, so if you need legroom, choose appropriate seats. If you choose a seat in the center section of the plane, you will be one of the last to be served as food starts at the front.

We were talking about the best business and economy class seats. Now let's talk about seats that you should avoid sitting on if possible.

Bad places - how not to make a mistake

The Boeing 737-800 s7 has bad seats located in economy class. They have the following disadvantages:

  1. There may not be windows at the 9th row level - you should check this with airport staff when checking in for your flight. This detail depends on the interior configuration.
  2. The 12th row is located in close proximity to the emergency exit, so the seats do not recline.
  3. In row 27, seats C and D are in close proximity to the aisle, so you'll be faced with ever-increasing queues for the toilet during your flight.
  4. The 28th row of this aircraft is located immediately in front of the toilets, which entails unpleasant odors and sounds throughout the flight.

When booking an air ticket, you need to take into account the personal needs of the passenger. What is important to you: reclining seat backs, distance from a busy part of the cabin, sufficient distance between seats, or the ability to quickly ask for help from a flight attendant at the right time? The choice of convenient places depends on these parameters.


Airplane cabin diagram

A good seat location is not a guarantee of a comfortable flight. Here are some helpful tips:

  1. If you have a fear of flying, avoid window seats. The seats next to the space between the rows are not very comfortable, but when you go to the toilet, you won’t have to disturb your neighbors.
  2. For passengers with small children, seats in row 14 are suitable. There is enough space for the child to sit comfortably. Choose seats close to the aisle for quick access to the restroom if necessary. If you are flying with a baby, ask for a seat with a bassinet - these seats are located at the front of the cabin.
  3. For the best seats, tickets must be booked at least 3 months in advance, otherwise you may be left without the desired seat.

After comparing the advantages and disadvantages of each seat, make your choice of the best seat based on individual preferences. Treat this responsibly so that the flight does not become a test for you. As a conclusion, we will collect the characteristics of each row of the aircraft in one table.

S7 Airlines has 19 Boeing 737-800 aircraft in its fleet. Their planes are divided into two different cabin configurations, the differences are not too great, but they are worth keeping in mind when buying a ticket online. Because, despite the fact that these differences are not significant, without paying attention to them you can buy a ticket to an inconvenient seat.

Their differences are as follows:

  • Firstly, the differences are that in one configuration there is a row with 2+2 seats, and in the second it is a standard 3+3.
  • Secondly, in one of the modifications the numbering was shifted by 1 row. For example, in the first configuration, the 9th row does not have a porthole, and in the second configuration, this row will be 8. Also, in the first configuration, the seat back cannot be reclined in the 12th row, and in the second configuration, the backrest cannot be reclined in the 11th row.

The configurations of the Boeing 737-800 airliner from S7 Airline do not differ in anything else, at least significantly. So you should take these features into account when checking in for a flight through an online ticket office. Because if you don’t watch it a little, you can end up in an uncomfortable place. Business class in both trim levels has a 2+2 seat arrangement. Below you can take a closer look at the interior diagrams of the Boeing 737-800. We will also tell you about all the features of this aircraft and the best places in its cabin.

Business Class

As a rule, the first seats are always given to business class, this was done at S7 Airline. The first three rows contain luxury seats. The main features of these chairs are the following. The first row is located close to the technical room, namely the kitchen and toilet. The only disadvantage of this row is that you have to watch the wall throughout the entire flight, but it also has a number of advantages that are not included in the business class section.

No one will recline the seat back in your seats, since no one can sit in front of you. Of course, it is clear that the step between the seats is much greater than in economy class, but the seat can be reclined to a more significant level. You will receive service not just one of the first, but the very first. The second row has no special features or drawbacks; it belongs to standard business class seats.

But the third row has several inconveniences, due to the fact that passengers in the third row have a fussy and noisy economy class next to them. If constant sound bothers you greatly, then this series will not suit you. But compared to many other disadvantages in economy class, the noise will not bother you much, especially since you will be in a soft and comfortable seat for the entire flight.

Economy class

The fourth row is considered the first row of economy class. The only disadvantage of this row is that there is a rigid partition in front of it, but it is shorter than the seats in this row. The main advantages of this row are that passengers have additional free legroom, no one will recline the seat back on you, and the flight attendant’s service will begin from your row.

Seats A and F in the ninth row. There are unconfirmed reports that there are no windows in these places. If this is the second type of equipment, then this is the 8th row. The veracity of this information should be clarified with an airline consultant.

The twelfth row is located in front of the first emergency exit, because of this there is a limitation in the recline of the seat back, it is possible that you will not be able to recline it even by a small angle.

The thirteenth row is located between the emergency exits. They often ask for an additional surcharge, and this row also has a number of requirements for passengers. Because safety precautions must be followed.

In the first configuration, between the emergency exits there are seats in a 2+2 combination, which is much better if you are flying as a couple, you also have your own additional passage thanks to which you will not disturb your neighbor. But since this rad is located between the emergency exits, it also cannot recline the back of the chair. But also no one will recline their chairs on you. Passengers in this row have additional free legroom, which allows them to stretch out during the flight.

The best seats are those in row 14, as they have all the advantages of the previous row, but they can easily recline and take a more comfortable position during the flight. But at the beginning of the flight, you should ask for a blanket, since the emergency exit area is usually much colder than everyone else.

The worst seats in the Boeing 737-800 cabin

Such seats usually include the last few rows, in our case these are the aisle seats in the twenty-eighth row. Since they are closest to the sanitary facility. Passengers in the aisle will have to constantly monitor the crowd of people going to the toilet; it is possible that they will constantly touch your seat, but this is not the worst thing. Some passengers may allow themselves to lean on the back of your seat, which can create a lot of discomfort and could lead to a small quarrel, and you obviously don’t want to spoil the mood during the flight,

Row 29 also has all these disadvantages, but it also has a number of its own disadvantages. Firstly, their row is located close to the wall of the toilet stall, which prevents them from reclining the chair to a more comfortable position. Secondly, the sounds of a drain barrel and the slamming of a door with a magnetic lock will constantly be heard from the technical room, and the magnetic lock closes with a characteristic click. There is also a small chance that an unpleasant odor will appear in the toilet, which will be quite difficult to deal with throughout the flight. All these disadvantages of this series will greatly affect a person’s mood during the flight.

Along with the Boeing 737 800 airbuses, it is the basis of the fleet of the Siberian company S7. It operates 19 aircraft of this model. Narrow-body aircraft are widely used in the world to transport passengers (passanger) and cargo (cargo). The liner operates on short routes (up to 5,765 km) and carries up to 190 passengers. The high demand for the aircraft has led to the fact that, with improvements and modifications, it is still being produced to this day.

Only a small number of passengers do not care where they are seated on the plane. For almost everyone, it is important to feel like you are in an aircraft according to your personal ideas of comfort.

Interesting! C7 received its last Boeing 737 800 quite recently, in 2014, straight from the plant in Seattle.

737 800 S7 passenger compartment configuration

Each airline determines the cabin layout independently when ordering an aircraft. For the Boeing 737 800 S7, the interior layout looks like an internal space divided into two compartments with 30 rows of seats.

General characteristics:

The center aisle is wide enough in both classes to accommodate carry-on luggage.

Business Class

The Boeing 737 800 S7 uses a 2-2 layout for business class. The chairs are soft and wide with a large reclining angle. Elite class travelers use a separate toilet located in front.

The 1st row has the advantage that there is no one in front. But closer is the kitchen block, from which odors can be heard;

The 2nd row is separated by a thin partition from the economy class, and noise from the more hectic cabin can be heard.

Overall, the minor advantages and disadvantages balance each other out and all seats are considered equal in terms of comfort.

Economy class

Economy class seats are arranged in a 3-3 configuration. This means there are window, aisle and middle seats. The seats are not as comfortable and wide as in the elite class, but they provide a minimum acceptable level of comfort.

Passengers place their luggage on spacious shelves above their seats or under their seats.

Important! In the front and middle zones, the shaking of the aircraft when entering turbulence zones is not so pronounced.

Choosing the best seat on a Boeing 737 800 S7

Almost every airline customer has individual preferences regarding their window or aisle seat. Average neutral seats are more suitable for a small percentage of indifferent passengers. They are a combination of the advantages and disadvantages of aisle seats - you don't feel as much anxiety from moving in the aisle, but you have to stand up if your window seat neighbor decides to leave. Having neighbors on both sides, if they are strangers, will create some discomfort for those who do not want to talk on the road.

Advantages of window seats:

The most relaxing chair with a companion on only one side;

The opportunity to take photos of landscapes and observe them from the window of the aircraft;

Convenience of sleeping during the flight, no one will bother you with requests to get up to clear the passage;

Good lighting for reading.

The only drawback of the window space is the unpleasant sensation of disturbing fellow passengers if the passenger needs to get out.

Important: Not all window seats have a good view. You may end up with a seat near the wall of the airliner without a window at all or with a view blocked by parts of the aircraft. For rows 12 to 20, the liner wing is at the bottom. And there is no porthole near seats 9A and 9F.

Characteristics of good seats by row:

3rd row. The best economy class seats. No reclining front seats and increased personal space. The C7 company calls these seats “extra space”, which means a sign of maximum comfort in economy class. Their cost is slightly higher, or you need to have a company card above the silver level;

Important! There are no facilities for attaching bassinets. And passengers with small children will not be allowed to occupy these seats, as they may cause inconvenience to elite travelers.

13th row. Located next to the emergency exit. Advantages - more space in front. On the seats in the previous row, the backrests are fixed, making it impossible to recline the chair for those sitting in the back. Disadvantages: you cannot sit comfortably in the chair due to the hard backs; it is forbidden to put personal items under the seats. Due to safety reasons, elderly passengers, children, and disabled people cannot sit in the 13th row;

14th row. Comfortable seats due to the increased distance to the previous row. At the same time, you can sit comfortably in the chair by reclining the back. Disadvantages - a small protrusion in the wall of the liner associated with the emergency exit in seats 14A and 14F, and the absence of an armrest on them.

The general disadvantage of seats near emergency exits is that they always feel slightly cooler than the rest of the cabin.

Bad places: how not to make a mistake

According to the general conditions of accommodation on board the Boeing 737 800 aircraft, the entire tail area is considered the least comfortable. But some places have worse characteristics:

12th row. Located in front of emergency exits. In this regard, the back is rigidly fixed. If the backs of the seats in the previous row are still reclined, you won’t be able to have a good rest;

29th row. Places 29C and 29D are excessively noisy and disturbing due to the proximity of bathrooms and utility rooms.

30th row. Worst choice. It is impossible to recline the backrests of the seats in the last row. The location of toilet rooms nearby creates constant movement of passengers in this area, noise from closing and opening doors and flushing. Another neighborhood, a kitchen block, will not add peace to the flight.

Passenger reviews note that it is a little colder in the tail of the aircraft. Usually you have to think about additional insulation.

  1. It is good to study the layout of the Boeing 737 800 cabin before registering. Now there are websites where you can even go on a virtual tour on board the aircraft. Using a 3D panorama, the air traveler will see how the seats are located in reality and evaluate all the strengths and weaknesses of the selected seat.
  2. The window seats are under the letters A and F, the aisle seats are C and D, and the middle seats are B and E.
  3. Aisle seats are recommended for passengers who wish to walk undisturbed. In addition, you can get off the plane faster from here.
  4. Those occupying the seats in the front rows of the aircraft are the first to leave. The distribution of food begins with them.
  5. Online registration is available on the company's website. The sooner an airline client starts checking in, the higher the chance of choosing a suitable seat. But this can not be done from all cities. The list is presented on the S7 website. If, nevertheless, check-in is carried out from a city not specified in the list, the passenger will be changed seats at the airport.
  6. Despite the reduced overall noise level in the Boeing 737 800, even less noise is felt in the nose area.
Important: Online registration opens 30 hours before departure.

Of course, not everyone will be able to get the best seats on the plane, but if you think about it, the vast majority of seats can have their positive sides. For example, in the tail, when the plane is not fully loaded, it will be spacious and comfortable. The main principle when choosing a good seat is to do it as early as possible.

This article discusses the Boeing 737-800 airliner, the cabin layout and the best seats ✈️

Experts agree, based on the cabin layout and other parameters, that the Boeing 737-800 aircraft is very successful; these airliners are used by most major carriers, such as Aeroflot, Russia, Pobeda, Azur Air, etc. But beginners are unlikely to be able to decide on the best in some places, which can ruin the impression of even the best trip.

Let's consider this problem in detail.

In contact with

Description and characteristics of the liner

Boeing 737 is the general name of a family of more than ten aircraft models: these are the Boeing 737 Max, and the Boeing 747, and the Boeing 73H, and the Boeing B 737 800w, and the Boeing 737-800 passenger.

The Boeing 737-800 aircraft is one of the most popular models of the large Boeing 737 Next Generation family.

In 1998, the first tests of this airliner were carried out. It was created as a competitor to the legendary Airbus A320.

Has better quality parameters.

How passengers are seated

Anyone who has frequently flown on various flights knows that the ticket does not contain information about the chosen seat, since this is clarified by the airport employee during the check-in process for the flight.

But often a person does not look at the seat layout on a Boeing 737-800 aircraft when checking in, and the seat is chosen at random. The result is a spoiled travel experience.

For this reason, it is worth researching all aspects of the aircraft in advance of your flight. Now let's look at the main points when choosing chairs.

Those who are afraid of flying are advised to take the outermost seats near the aisle. As a result, you can avoid windows, and also use the help of aircraft employees if necessary. These places allow you to move comfortably without inconveniencing other people.

However, there is also a negative nuance, which is that a person will have to let all fellow travelers pass if they need to go out somewhere, and the service staff may accidentally touch a traveler sitting on the edge.

Center seats are considered not a good option for solo travelers.

This happens due to the fact that a person spends the entire trip next to strangers, which creates a certain discomfort. And the armrests belonging to the neighbors only emphasize such sensations.

The seat near the window is very suitable for such passengers, but getting out becomes quite problematic, because to do this you need to lift all your neighbors.

These are the traditional rules according to which seats are allocated among passengers on Boeing 737-800 aircraft.

When choosing the best seats, pay attention to the fact that the Boeing 737-800 passenger cabin has the following feature: in the 13th row there are only 4 seats, two on each side. This can be seen as an advantage for a married couple, or for those flying with a relative or friend, because sitting with one neighbor is much more comfortable than with two.

If you need inexpensive flights, pay attention to the Boeing 737800 wing - the most popular American airliner, which is used by Russian airlines when purchasing it for their fleet. It flies not only throughout the Russian Federation, but also abroad. It got its name due to the fact that these aircraft have winglets - vertical tips on the wings, so they have the additional marking “wl”.

If you are going to fly in the cabin of a Boeing 738 passenger aircraft, pay attention to the first 4 rows of seats. In the b738 cabin, they have a number of advantages - the presence of a kitchen, flight attendants and a toilet nearby.

73h is the designation for the latest model of the Boeing 737-800. 73 h - an aircraft with an improved engine, a new tail and extended wings is used all over the world and is considered the most reliable.

Boeing 737-800 b73h: in business class, the distance between rows is about a meter, which allows even tall passengers to stretch their legs. If you want increased comfort on the B73n plane, pay attention to the Spase+ seats

In the Boeing 737-8LJ(WL) modification, the seat layout depends on the carrier company, so you need to choose them based on which company you are flying with. In any case, usually the least comfortable seats are located in the middle, especially if strangers are sitting on the sides. You won't have your own armrest. In addition, it will be difficult for you to get to the exit or to the toilet without disturbing your neighbors.

Single class model overview

Let's start by looking at each row for convenience in flight. We will describe the Aeroflot aircraft and understand what the parameters are for selecting a seat; we will describe the arrangement of seats on a Boeing 737-800 aircraft. We will describe the optimal places and inconvenient ones using Latin markings:

  1. Row 2 F, E, D - are located directly behind the partition. If you are afraid of being confined around, we recommend avoiding such places, otherwise the phobia will only intensify. There is a wide choice of food, because food will be taken out from the bow of the board, there are no problems with passengers reclining.
  2. Row 14 is colder compared to other points in the aircraft cabin.
  3. Rows 15, 16, 17 - due to emergency hatches, there are restrictions on seat folding.
  4. Rows 17 B, C, D, E are the best because they are located far enough from row 16. However, such seats are sold only to adult passengers without health problems, since in the event of an unpleasant situation they are responsible for opening the emergency doors. Despite the close distance to the WC area and the cockpit, the distance is sufficient for calm movement around the aircraft.
  5. 18 rows A and F are quite comfortable seats, because there is a lot of space to move between them.
  6. Row 33 is the worst option, because due to regular noise, restrictions on reclining seats and constant movement of passengers, as well as the proximity of toilets, the trip will be very uncomfortable.

Review of the model with a business class cabin

Boeing 737-800 - photo of the Aeroflot cabin with economy and business cabins.

Based on the interior diagram of the Aeroflot Boeing 737-800 airliner, you can see:

  1. 1st row A, C, F, D - located immediately behind the cabin partitions. For this reason, there is not enough space here and the view of the wall does not bring much pleasure, although it is comfortable to do business there.
  2. Rows 1 - 5 belong to business class and are the most comfortable.

Now let's look at the economy class cabin. This part of the aircraft has 154 seats.

Things to note:

  1. The 6th row is the most comfortable, there is enough free space, and in front there is only a partition separating the cabin from the business class.
  2. Rows 12 and 13 - Due to the location of emergency exits, you need to remember that there is no possibility of reclining seats.
  3. Row 13 C, D, E, F - located near the emergency exits, quite comfortable.
  4. Row 14 is a fairly wide space.

The cabin diagram of an Aeroflot Boeing 7737-800 With Winglets aircraft also shows the following: Row 28 - the seats are very uncomfortable. The reason is quite simple: the proximity of toilets, regular noise and movement of passengers. Also, the stewards will reach this row only after they have walked around the entire aircraft. Thus, we can say that the principle of choosing seats can be anything, the main thing is that it ensures comfortable travel.

Beginners are advised to use the advice of knowledgeable people in order to avoid unpleasant sensations.

  1. It is very important for a traveler to become familiar with the interior layout and model parameters.
  2. It wouldn’t hurt to consult with the company’s employees about the chosen location or choose the most optimal one.
  3. It is necessary to take into account your own perception of turbulence. In this situation, experts recommend looking for places located closer to the nose of the plane - the shaking will be felt less strongly than at the end of the plane.
  4. Places close to toilets or emergency hatches should be avoided. It should also be understood that it will be impossible to travel in a reclining position on such seats due to safe flight instructions and the design of the aircraft.
  5. Seats located close to the utility seats of the aircraft will not allow you to enjoy the silence of the flight.
  6. Remember your own preferences when choosing a salon. If you are traveling with a pet, then you need to position yourself close to the aisles of the cabin.

Conclusion

So, the criteria for selecting places are quite simple. A competent and precise approach when choosing seats will guarantee a comfortable trip, since a well-chosen seat will set the tone for the entire flight. And by finding the best seat on a Boeing 737-800, you'll ensure you have a great trip.
