The configuration of the liner provides for two cabin classes - economy and business. The number of seats is 148 and 12, respectively.
Let's take a look at the layout of the Boeing 737-800 S7 Airlines cabin and try to figure out where the plane has good and where the seats are bad.
A couple of general points about the seating arrangement in the Boeing 737-800 are their disadvantages and advantages.
1. The seats, which are located next to the porthole, have the advantage of being able to look into it during the flight (this, of course, depends on the flight time and weather). If you are flying at night, this advantage does not count. Also, the neighbor will not bother you if he wants to get up. These places have one drawback - it is not very convenient to leave it yourself. Therefore, if there is no need to go to the toilet often or you intend to oversleep the entire flight, choose a seat near the window.
2. The seats, which are located near the aisle, have their own advantage - it is very easy to get up from it, if necessary, to the toilet. The disadvantages are that a neighbor may bother him if he needs to get up. Flight attendants with carts and passengers who pass through the cabin to the galley and toilets can also interfere. Therefore, if you are flying with a child and, most likely, you will often have to go to the toilet. Or you yourself have a need to go to the restroom more often, then choose from the edge of the place.
1-3 p. Business locations. Let's notice some peculiarities: The first row is located closest to the toilets and the kitchen, you will have to observe the wall during the flight. But, a significant advantage of these seats is that no one will recline the back of the chair on you. It is clear that the width between the rows is large, but also a significant recline angle for business chairs. A. Neighborhood with a noisier economy class may cause inconvenience on row 3. However, these little things are not so important and you will be comfortable in these places.
4 p. The first row is economy, which is located in front of the partition. The distance to the wall is not very large, but the knees do not rest against it. But you won't be able to stretch your legs. Some more passengers find it uncomfortable to watch the entire flight against the wall. In addition, attachments for cradles are available near the wall, so you can become a neighbor for passengers with small children. Of the advantages - no one will definitely throw the back of the chair on you. And if you take into account the small step between the rows of the economy, this is very important. They also begin to carry food from this row. This means that you will be the first to receive it.
9 p. F, A. In some configuration this aircraft, no porthole.
12 p. - the seats behind which the first series of emergency exits are located. In view of this, the chairs usually do not recline or have a strong limitation in this.
13 p. Places with merits and demerits. First, about the disadvantages. Due to the fact that behind this row there is a second series of emergency exits - the backs of the seats do not recline. Now the dignity. On the one hand, there are not 3, but 2 chairs in a row. This is always more convenient, especially when flying in pairs. On the other hand, there is additional legroom. You will not be allowed to block the passage with hand luggage. It is also forbidden for passengers with disabilities, passengers with animals and children to be in these places. Restrictions for the elderly are possible.
14 p. - enough good places... Plenty of legroom, backrests recline. A small drawback - the seats F, A can be "beveled", there are still no armrests on the side of the emergency hatch.
27 p. by the passage. Proximity to toilets will be inconvenient. People will constantly stand and walk by you to and fro.
28 p. - the most inconvenient parts of the cabin. The backs do not recline, as they rest against the wall of the toilet. And the very neighborhood with the restrooms does not cause any comfort. Constant movement, the slamming of the door, the sound of the tank does not add convenience during the flight.

Clear skies for you, as the pilots say, and a soft landing!
13 Boeing 737-800 models fly on S7 (Siberia Airlines) flights. Almost all liners can be considered new. So, the VQ-BVL board made its first flight only in August 2014. The oldest is VP-BQD, which made its maiden flight in May 2001. But this can also be considered not age, since other Russian companies have Boeings with 20 years of operation. In general, the probability that you will fly on a new aircraft that has not been operated by other airlines is 50/50 (roughly half of the fleet is aircraft under the age of 4).
The liner will accommodate 160 passengers. The layout of the cabin is of two classes. The business class has 12 seats, the remaining 148, respectively - the economy class.
The layout of the salon is taken from the official website of the company:
Let's study the layout of the Boeing's cabin and find out which seats in this model are the most comfortable and which are not very good for flying.
Seat locations on Boeing 737-800 S7
Row 1.
Business class first row. There seems to be a lot of legroom here due to the lack of a row in front. In economy class, this would be a big advantage. But in business class, there is already a large distance between the rows, so we will consider this as just a small bonus. But the fact that the row is nevertheless closer to the toilet and kitchen can be considered a disadvantage. In addition, the entire flight before the eyes here will be the wall of the partition. Therefore, in business class it is still better to take rows 2 and 3.
Row 4. Economy class first row. Some of the most comfortable seats in the cabin. There is more legroom here, and no one will recline the back of the chair on you. At S7, such places are called extra space, that is, places of increased comfort. They can be obtained only for an additional fee (the cost of the service depends on the length of the flight and the city of departure) or if you are a holder of a status card above the silver status.
The disadvantages of this row are the lack of fastening for baby cradles (usually, they are placed just in the first rows). Also, passengers with small children will not be put here, as this can cause discomfort to business class passengers (this information should be specified when booking an air ticket).
Row 8. According to passenger reviews, there is no view through the windows on the left side of this row. If you want to observe the starry sky and the landscape of the flight, book other seats (this information should also be checked with the official carrier, as it depends on the specific aircraft).
Row 12. Not good places. Due to the presence of an emergency exit behind the row, the backrests of the seats are limited in reclining. We'll have to fly in one position. If the chair in front is reclined on you, then there is not much space left.
Row 13. Good places to fly (especially when couples), but with some downsides. Firstly, because of the second emergency exit, the backrests here are also limited in reclining. Secondly, the aisles cannot be laid with hand luggage (you will have to "shove" everything under the chair or on the shelf from above). Thirdly, due to safety reasons, pregnant women, passengers with small children, passengers with pets, elderly people and disabled people are prohibited from sitting here.
Well, the advantages are the increased space both in the front and on the side of the chair. Also, because of the emergency exit, no one will recline the back of the chair at you.
Row 14. In the diagram, they are designated as comfortable places for flight, due to the presence of an emergency exit in front of the row. There should be more legroom here. but this moment should be specified when booking an air ticket. According to some passengers, they came across planes where the 14th row is normal and even with a restriction on reclining the seat.
Row 27 Seats C and D... Not the most best places for the flight. The entrance to the toilets and the kitchen area is very close. And since the seats are extreme to the aisle, passengers walking on the way to the toilet (or from it) will touch you with their elbows. Can "get" and from a passing trolley with food and drinks.
Row 28. Worst places for the flight. Firstly, everyone is closer to the toilet - and these are unnecessary sounds, smell, constant queues near the chair and fuss. Secondly, because of the partition, the backs of the chair are limited in reclining. Third, it can be colder in the tail of an aircraft than in other parts of the cabin. The only plus is food, and drinks will be served to you first.
In conclusion, I would like to add about the air conditioning system of this aircraft. According to the passengers in the middle rows of the plane it is always hotter, there is little air. And in the back rows, as noted above, it is quite cold. It happens that you have to fly wrapped in a blanket. Conclusion - you need to book seats as close to the nose of the aircraft as possible.
S7 Airlines uses the A320 in a two-class layout - business and economy. Basically, the cabin of this aircraft does not differ from that of the A319.
Business Class
The layout of the seats is 2 x 2. The first two rows are allocated for the business class. We will not dwell on this class, because the location, the width of the seats, the services offered for passengers - everything is conducive to a comfortable flight anywhere.
Economy class
For the economy class in the A320, rows from 3 to 27 are allocated. The layout of the seats in the cabin is 3 x 3.
Row 3
If you have read our guide to choosing the best seat on an aircraft, you know that the first row of economy class is considered the best for a flight.
Seats in this row have the maximum benefits and, as a rule, airlines charge an additional fee to be able to book these seats.
Passengers of this row are spared the inconvenience in flight due to the presence of the seats in front and the passengers in them. After all, no one will recline the back of the chair, showing you the top of the head.
Legroom is more than enough. You can put your carry-on luggage in the shelves above the seats or give it to the flight attendant, who will find a place for your belongings.
Rows 4 to 7
Standard rows by step and seat size. However, they have advantages in comparison with similar rows from the center and tail of the cabin.
Passengers in the bow rows of the A320 are among the first to receive meals. Accordingly, the question "chicken or fish" carries a practical aspect and the availability of a choice of hot dishes.
In this part of the salon, you will not see queues to the toilet room, because statistically, most passengers go to the toilets at the tail of the plane. This is also due to the fact that the bulk of the seats falls precisely at the end of the central and tail sections.
Only, the 7th row has disadvantages in the form of partially covering the view from the window of the wing and increased noise from the engine located on it.
Row 8
Worse than 7, but better than 9, I would say so. The field view at the porthole is half obscured by the leading edge. Plus the increased noise from the engine.
Row 9
There are emergency exits behind the seats in this row. Therefore, the backrests of the 9th row seats do not fold down, which can create discomfort when flying long distances or on a night flight.
Rows 10 and 11
The seats are located at the emergency exits. Can be counted as places superior comfort due to the increased legroom. However, online registration for such places may be closed.
Also, passengers with children, animals and the elderly are not registered for seats at emergency exits.
Life hack: Seats in the 10th row can be selected at registration without additional charges for Extra Space. Similar seats in the 11th row - only for money.
Rows 12 to 15
Nothing notable places with disadvantages for those who like to look through portholes. The wing covers all views, except for the 15th row. There is a partial review. The trailing edge of the wing runs exactly at the level of the window. Additional noise can be generated by the engine on the wing.
Rows 16 to 26
Armchairs with standard spacing. The only recommendation is to register for seats closer to the 16th row. The further to the tail, the more people who want to get to the toilet standing in the aisle. On an overnight flight, rest can be disrupted by slamming toilet doors and noise in the kitchen.
Row 27
Avoid this row if possible. The most awkward places in the A320 are in this row.
The only plus of these chairs, if the distribution of food is from the tail, you will receive food one of the first.
There are many more cons.
The backs of the 27th row of seats do not recline. There are toilets behind your backs. From time to time, you will observe a line of passengers near you, who, while waiting, will lean on the backs of the seats at the aisle.
Noise from the kitchen.
S7 Airlines operates 10 Boeing 737-800 aircraft. The configuration of the liner provides for two cabin classes - business and economy. The number of seats is 148 and 12, respectively.
Let's take a look at the layout of the Boeing 737-800 S7 Airlines cabin and try to figure out where the plane has good and where the seats are not very good.
A few nonspecialized points about seating in a Boeing 737-800 - their advantages and disadvantages.
1. The seats, which are located next to the porthole, have the advantage that it is possible to observe through it during the flight (this, of course, depends on the weather and flight time). If you are flying at night, this benefit does not count. Another neighbor will not bother you if he wants to get up. These places have one drawback - it is not very comfortable to leave it yourself.
Therefore, if there is no need to go to the toilet quite often, or you are going to oversleep the whole flight, choose a seat near the window.
2. The seats, which are located near the aisle, have their own advantage - it is very easy to get up from it, if you need to go to the toilet. The shortcomings are such - a neighbor may bother if he needs to get up. Flight attendants with carts and passengers who pass through the cabin to the toilets and the galley will also be able to interfere. Based on this, if you are flying with a child and, most likely, you will have to go to the toilet quite often.
Or you yourself have a need to go to the restroom more often, then choose from the edge of the place.
1-3 p. Business locations. Let's see some features: The first row is closest to the restrooms and the kitchen, you need to notice the wall during the flight. But, a significant advantage of these seats is that no one will recline the back of the chair on you. It is clear that the width between the sequences is enormous, but also a significant recline angle for business chairs. A. Neighborhood with a noisier economy class can lead to inconvenience for 3 sequences. But, these little things are not so serious and you will be comfortable in these places.
4 p. The first row is economy, which is located in front of the partition. The distance to the wall is not great, but the knees do not rest against it. But the legs will not be stretched out. Some more passengers in the wall to watch the whole flight are uncomfortable. In addition, there are cheap mounts for cradles near the wall, so it is possible to become a neighbor for passengers with small children. Of the advantages - no one will definitely throw the back of the chair on you. And suddenly it is very important to take into account the small move between the economy sequences. They also begin to spread food from this sequence. This indicates that you will receive it first.
9 p. F, A. In some configurations of this aircraft, there is no porthole.
12 p. - the seats behind which the first series of emergency exits are located. In view of this, in most cases, the seats do not recline, or in this they have a strong limitation.
13 p. Places with disadvantages and advantages. First, about the shortcomings. Due to the fact that behind this row there is a second series of emergency exits - the backs of the seats do not recline. Benefits now. On the one hand, there are not 3, but 2 chairs in the sequence. This is consistently more ergonomic, especially when flying in a couple. Otherwise, there is additional legroom. You will not be allowed to block the passage with hand luggage. Even passengers with disabilities, passengers with children and pets are not allowed to stay in these seats. Restrictions for the elderly are likely.
14 p. - good enough places. A large number of for the legs of the place, the backs recline. A small flaw - the seats F, A can be "beveled", even in that place there are no armrests on the side of the emergency hatch.
27 p. by the passage. Proximity to restrooms will be inconvenient. People will always be and walk by you here and there.
28 p. - the most inconvenient parts of the cabin. The backs do not recline, because they rest against the wall of the toilet. And the very neighborhood with the restrooms does not cause any comfort. Constant movement, slamming of the door, sounds of the tank do not add convenience during the flight.

Ural Airlines
On board the Airbus A321 Ural Airlines»There is no business class, and three conventional economy class sectors are allocated only by emergency exits.
The carrier does not indicate the best seats in the Airbus A321 on the official map. However, according to reviews and common practice, seats with increased legroom located in front of emergency exits will be the most comfortable for the flight. On the layout of the Airbus A321 cabin, such seats are: row 11 - the whole, 12 row - A, F, row 26 - the whole.
The worst places, traditionally, are at the toilet (the inclination of the back of the chair is limited, there is little room for hand luggage) and each average of 3.
S7 Airlines
S7 Airlines provides a very small business class on its flights at the beginning of the cabin. There are other differences from the above schemes.
Seat map Airbus A321-100 / 200 y S7
- Business class - 8 seats in rows 1, 2;
- Economy class - 189 seats;
- Extra Legroom Seats - Row 10 of Seats A, F; 23rd row - all or only extreme.
The main feature of the layout is the 22nd row, where there are only two seats, and not next to the porthole. There is no extra legroom here, but these places will be a real stroke of luck for those who fly in pairs.
Nordwind

Bad places where the back of the chair does not recline are also highlighted in the diagram:
- 10 row - A, B, C, D, E;
- 25 row - A, B, C, D, E;
- 38 row (last, at the toilets) - A, B, C, D, E, F.
