It is a longer version of the A320. This is the largest aircraft of the A320 type. The standardized configuration of the Airbus A321 accommodates 185 passengers in a two-class cabin (169 economy class and 16 first class).

This configuration can be expanded to 220 seats for low-cost and charter operators, then the aircraft cabin will be single-class - only seats in economy class. And the number of different cabin configurations can be in the tens.

To know exactly which places on the A321 are the best, you need to familiarize yourself with the diagram of the aircraft in which you will fly. But often, to understand the principle of choice, it is enough to get acquainted with any scheme.

Consider the configuration of the Airbus A321, which is used by the most popular Russian air carrier Aeroflot. This diagram of the A321 cabin can be viewed on the website of the aviation company (of. Aeroflot website).

A couple of general points about the location of the seats in the Airbus A321 - their disadvantages and advantages.

1. Seats that are located next to the window have the advantage of being able to look into it during the flight (this, of course, depends on the time of flight and the weather). If you fly at night, this merit does not count. Another 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 seats by the window.

2. The seats, which are located near the aisle, have their own dignity - it is very easy to get up from it, if necessary, to the toilet. The disadvantages are that a neighbor can be disturbed 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 seat.

1-7 rubles. Business class. 1 and 7 p. are considered slightly worse than the rest due to the fact that a partition is installed in front of the first row, there is enough space, but proximity to the toilets can cause a little concern. Places 7 p. close to the noisier economy class. If you are going to fly in business class, take from 2 to 6 p. places.

8 rubles. One of the best seats on board this economy class liner. It's all about the emergency exit, which is located in front of them. There is much more leg room here. Also, you can get up from any of them without disturbing the neighbors and they will not bother you. Another advantage is that they are located in front of the cab. As a rule, drinks and food start serving at the end from the beginning, you will have a huge choice. These are places of increased comfort.

18 p .. This p. - standard regular seats in economy class. But the location near the toilets makes them not very comfortable. The regular walking of people will attract attention and there will often be a “queue” for the restroom near you and.

19 rubles. Places that are located directly behind the emergency exit. As in the places of the 8th river, there is a lot of free space for the legs. And it seems good, but proximity to the toilets is not the best choice. That's why it's yellow.

20 rubles. Armchairs, which are located near the portholes, are very comfortable. There is a lot of free space, there are also legs where to stretch and stand up without any problems and look out the window. Great places.

30 rubles, D and C. - proximity to the toilets, most likely, will cause inconvenience.

31 p. Separately, we note the last row. These places are not only located near the toilets (a "queue" will often be created near you in the restroom), but they do not recline at all, since there is a wall directly behind them. These are the worst places, take them only if there are no other options.

Ask an Airline Worker for Advice

Aircraft with decent flight performance meet high international standards and are characterized by high reliability and safety for flights over distances up to 5950 km. Reviews of travelers about the aircraft of this model are positive.

In every air travel comfort during the flight is important. To do this, the passenger, having studied the reviews, can choose the flights of the company, the liner technical parameters and seats, the location of which is directly affected by convenience. Consider the features of the Airbus A321 s7 model and the location of the seats in the aircraft.

General description of the Airbus A 321

This is the largest in the category of narrow-body airliners of the Airbus brand. In the s7 A 321 scheme, there is only one passage between the seats. The aircraft at maximum load carries out flights to 5950 km, the body length is 44.5 meters.

Configuration

Airbus A321 of S7 company has two classes of seats, but among the existing liners there are versions with one economy class. For two-class models, the capacity is 185 seats, and for one class, the number of seats increases to 220. The placement of the lines is standard for all airbuses, according to the 3 * 3 scheme, with a typical foot space.

The difference between A321 and A320 lies in the location of emergency exits - they are not next to each other, but at a great distance.

Interior arrangement

The Airbus a321 has 8 business class seats and 189 economy class seats. The layout of the seats in the s7 aircraft is typical for most models - three rows of seats on one side, a longitudinal passage from the nose to the tail, and three more rows of seats on the other side.

Business Class

Its difference from the economic in the increased comfort of the flight of passengers. There is enough room for a person's legs to stretch them to their full length. Flight attendant service always starts from these rows, which gives a large selection of dishes in the on-board meals. Silence and a small number of seats provide a special comfort when you need to work on the road.

For the A321 s7, there are only 2 rows with 8 seats in the business class seating arrangement in the Airbus. The wall in front of the seats of the first line of seats separates the cabin from the cockpit. There is no partition in front of the second row, more space in the foot section.

Proximity to a noisy and crowded economy class can be inconvenient.

Among all Airbuses A321 of S7 Airlines in economy class there are more and less comfortable seats. Before ordering air tickets, passengers are often interested in information about the airbus a321, the layout of the cabin, best places s7. Consider photos of places and rows that should be avoided when booking and registering.

№ 3

These places have the best location:

• The backs of the previous line do not fall, which significantly limits the space.
• During the entire flight, an image with the company's symbols is in front of the passenger's face, and not the head in front of the seated person.
• Children often play on the backs, whose toys sometimes fall backwards.
• Proximity to business class gives you an advantage in the queue of service, a greater choice of food and drinks offered in flight.
• The toilet in the bow is not as popular with passengers, which will ensure that there are no waiting lines.

Hand luggage carried by a person can be placed above the head, where comfortable and wide shelves are equipped. If there is not enough space in the overhead compartment, things can be given to the stewardess, who will always find a place to accommodate.

4 -8

These series do not have any special advantages or disadvantages. The seat pitch is standard for liners of any brand, the seats are ordinary in width. There is a porthole here, and the view is not blocked by the wing of the aircraft or its engine.

In places near the aisle there is a difference from the middle part - there will be no people moving around the cabin or queues for the restroom.

№ 9

Unfortunate choice for people admiring the views while flying, there are no viewing windows. When choosing seats B and E in the 9th row, the passenger involuntarily looks at the legs of people sitting in seats A and F in the next, 10th row, for the entire flight.

10-19

Seats are located in the middle of the aircraft. In such large airbuses, flight attendants carry food from the tail and bow at the same time, towards each other. People sitting in the center receive a limited selection of food and drinks. There are portholes near the extreme seats to the sides, but the view from them is completely blocked by the wings of the liner.

№ 20

These seats will not be the best choice for a passenger, since the view from the window is blocked by more than half of the aircraft wing and the engine located on it. When taking off, landing and maneuvering an aircraft, additional noise from a running engine is possible.

№ 22

These seats are close to business class in terms of comfort. Just a couple of chairs, and there are no neighbors on the sides. There is no porthole here, as seat 22F is missing.

№ 23

Seats in the 23rd row have increased foot space. There are no portholes, the set of seats depends on the model of the liner. The A321 S7 with tail numbers QI, QH, QJ and QK has all the seats on this line, while the PC and PO models have seats only A and F.

23-34

The location of these lines goes in the direction from the middle part to the tail. Starting from the 28th line of seats, the number of people waiting in line for the restroom may increase in the aisle.

№ 35

These seats are the worst in an aircraft of any brand and company. Due to the partition at the rear, the seats do not recline. There is a toilet nearby, the noise from which interferes throughout the flight. There will also be discomfort from people waiting in line in the aisle.

When choosing a seat when flying on an S7 airliner A321, the passenger is advised to take into account the peculiarities of well-being. If a long flight sitting is difficult for health reasons, you should prefer seats near the aisle in order to be able to get up periodically. For peace of mind will be useful places near the windows. In flight, you must follow the rules of the airline, then the journey will be safe and calm.

What is the Airbus A321, where to look at the cabin map, how to choose the best seats in Aeroflot - hardly anyone thought about these issues when buying tickets.

Recently, there has been an increase in popularity passenger air transportation. Of course, it is more convenient and reliable than traveling ground transport. Yes, and you can save time, especially if you need to get somewhere urgently.

Aeroflot's popular airliner is the Airbus A321. People who travel little do not know what kind of aircraft it is and what comfort awaits them. But, as with other aircraft, the main thing is to choose the right places for travel.

Consider the advantages and disadvantages of flying on the A321 airliner, the Aeroflot cabin layout, the modification of the Airbus and the best seats.

Description of the Airbus A321 and its technical characteristics

Airbus A321-200

Passenger aircraft. He became the next model after the A320.

Appeared on Russian airlines in 1994. Airbus is the main developer.

But, despite the fact that the liner has been produced for more than a decade, its production continues to this day. This is due to the reliability of the aircraft and the high need for use when passenger traffic.

In total, there are two Airbus A321 models, which is confirmed by Wikipedia, they have a different modification - A321-100 and A321-200:

1. A321-100 was developed by the company's employees in 1993. In the same year, the aircraft took off into the sky and passed its certification. Since the aircraft has proven itself on the positive side, in 1993 it began to be mass-produced. And, importantly, Airbuses of this modification are produced to this day.
2. A321-200 with an increased takeoff weight, as well as an increased flight range. The liner was developed over two years from 1994 to 1996. Initially created as a competitor to the Boeing liner, the German company became the customer who first bought the aircraft. They ordered the plane even when it was not launched into mass production. Given the reliable technical characteristics, the aircraft is still being produced today.

Specifications liner:

1. In flight, it reaches a speed of 890 km / h.
2. The flight range with a maximum load is 6000 km without refueling.
3. The maximum A321 can climb to a height of 11,900 km.
4. The engine installed on the aircraft was manufactured by Airbus and belongs to the CFMI CFM56-5A/5B modification.
5. The wingspan is 34.1 meters.
6. The height of the aircraft is about 12 meters.
7. The cabin of aircraft of various modifications practically does not differ from one another. Thanks to this, pilots can transfer from one to another without any problems.
8. The aircraft is 44.51 meters long.
9. In flight, it shows quite decent performance, since fuel consumption is minimal.
10. The airliners are equipped with reliable engines, and therefore each passenger can be calm for their safety in flight.

Its useful to note: In 2015, the Airbus was modified and new engines were installed on the aircraft, which gives even greater confidence in comfort and safety.

The main distinguishing feature of aircraft Airbus is that all cockpits are made according to the same principle. Therefore, it is enough for the pilot to complete one course, and after that he can fly passenger liner, and then freight.

Location of seats

Aeroflot uses two types of Airbus A321 for passenger transportation. How many places are there? One is an economy class and is designed for 220 seats, and the second combines business class and economy seats. This liner is designed for 185 passenger seats. Consider the location of the seats in the Airbus 321 two-class layout, since this type is in great demand.

Seats in the Airbus A321 by modifications

As in other aircraft, the business class is located in the bow of the liner. According to the Airbus Industrie A321 scheme, business class is rows from one to seven. The seats are actually worth choosing, as the distance between the seats is large enough and you can walk freely. In addition, the chairs themselves are more comfortable and the menu is the most diverse.

The most popular are the places that are located by the window or porthole. This is due to the fact that those passing by do not disturb the tourists. And of course - an unforgettable view from the window.

But, even in the business class there are places that are not entirely successful for passengers, and this can be seen in the photo of the Airbus 321 cabin. For example, seats on the first and seventh rows. This is due to the fact that the first row is located near the toilets, and the seventh row is located next to the service premises. As a result, there will be a constant movement of passengers and staff. Also, given the proximity of the location, the light will be constantly on both day and night, so it is unlikely that you will be able to sleep. The seventh row is also not worth choosing, since immediately behind it is a partition leading to the economy class. Therefore, the sounds coming from the neighboring cabin will not let you rest in flight.

We go to the economy class cabin. Looking at it, we can immediately say that the location of the seats in the Airbus A321 of this type is not very convenient. Firstly, there is only one passage, and the seats are arranged three in a row. Here are places from 8 to 31. But despite the fact that these places are lower class, the seats themselves are quite comfortable and practically do not differ from the first salon.

Note: when choosing seats in economy class, it is better to opt for seats in row 8. This is due to the fact that only a partition remains in front of the seats. They are especially convenient for tall people, as there is where to stretch your legs.

You can also opt for seats in the 20th row with designations A and F. There is also a large space in front of the seats.

We have considered more convenient places. But, as in the other liner, there are bad places here, tickets for which are not worth buying. These are places located in rows 19 and 18, 31. They are also located next to the toilet, so you should not opt ​​for them.

We have decided on the choice of places. Let's see what they say about the advantages and disadvantages of the A321.

How to choose the right seats in the Airbus A321

General recommendations on how to choose the best places:

1. In order to move on to choosing a seat, focusing on the Airbus 321 seating plan, it is enough to start by deciding in which class you will fly.
2. If this is an economy class, then you should not choose seats in the last row, and the seats located next to the aisle are not entirely suitable if you plan to relax on the flight.
3. When choosing seats in business class, you should not opt ​​for the first row seats, because, given the high traffic, you will not be able to spend time calmly in flight.
4. In addition, when choosing seats, be sure to pay attention to how much you are willing to spend on buying a ticket. Business class is much more expensive than economy class. Therefore, places in places, but you should not forget about the financial side of the issue.

Based on the plan of the Airbus 321 aircraft, you will be able to make the right choice.

Airbus A321 positive and negative points

First about the benefits:

• despite the fact that the first liner was launched from the assembly line more than 20 years ago, its main advantage remains its excellent performance, primarily flight performance;
• the carrying capacity is quite decent compared to other aircraft;
• sufficient passenger capacity;
• the passenger compartment is quite spacious;
• high sound insulation allows you to relax and enjoy the flight during the flight.

In fact, the liner is comfortable, it is convenient, quiet and comfortable.

But among the positive qualities, there are also negative ones. One of them is that its first release was many years ago. That is why in modern aircraft construction appeared a large number of competitors who can compete both in terms of comfort and technical characteristics.

Despite the fact that in modern world There is a large selection of airliners, most often passengers choose the A321 series aircraft. It is in it that you can sit comfortably.

In addition, if you use Aeroflot services, you get a number of advantages:

• the professionalism of the pilots and personnel is striking;
• the cost of tickets is more favorable than in commercial companies;
• thanks to the right approach to their duties, employees provide their passengers with greater reliability and comfort.

When choosing comfortable seats for your trip, pay attention to the Airbus 321 seating chart. After all, how you spend your time in flight depends on the right choice.

Watch a video that explains how to choose the best seat on an airplane:

When buying a ticket, pay attention to which plane you are going to fly. If this is an Airbus A321, then check the cabin layout and choose the best seats. The provided photos and recommendations will help you with this.

Today every company has a lot of airliners. Some fly short or medium distances, others are designed for longer distances. And since cabins often differ from each other in individual details, the location of convenient and advantageous seats must be clarified before checking in for boarding.

History and characteristics

The Airbus A321 appeared due to the need to compete with the Boeing 737-900ER, as well as to increase the key performance of the models in this line. Compared to previous versions, the developers have improved:

1. The power of the engines, due to which the aircraft began to fly further.
2. Wings reinforced to air Transport could withstand heavy loads.
3. In the A321-200 modification, the fuel tanks are also enlarged, which helps to refuel gasoline for a longer flight time.

The first successful development took place in 1994 and after a test flight, all aircraft were taken over by Lufthansa companies and Alitalia. The second modification appeared two years later and it constantly receives orders from a variety of carriers. Aeroflot has several such airliners operating short and medium-range flights.

Airbus A321 is a twin-engine narrow-body aircraft designed to cover a distance of 4000-5000 km. Of all the models of this line, it is the largest, which makes it possible to take on board more passengers. So, its standard capacity is designed for 200 people, but a lot depends on the specific modification and the airline that operates the flight.

If these are charter lines that do not have a division into business and economy class, then there are 220 passenger seats in the cabin at once, among which there are very few differences. When divided into two levels of comfort, only 185 seats remain due to the release of space for a zone of increased convenience.

Salon scheme

You can see how the seats are located on board a particular aircraft on the official website of the selected carrier. Worth looking for background information about the salon and find a seating chart. Then when registering itinerary receipt you will know exactly which seats best meet your wishes and needs in flight.

You can do this as you would during checkout. boarding pass online, and at the counter with an airport employee. But remember that the best and most convenient places are occupied in the first place, so for a better choice it is advisable to start registration as early as possible.

The business class in this case is distinguished by the arrangement of seats according to the 2X2 scheme. And in the economy class, the seats are most often placed according to the 3X3 type. Thus, only 28 tickets are sold to the zone of increased comfort. The differences apply to charter flights and other airlines where there is no allocation between passenger convenience classes.

But note also the fact that seats with extra legroom (Space+), such as those at emergency exits, are sometimes sold at a surcharge at a low premium, as they are the most desirable for most passengers.

Almost every place has its pros and cons. Consider some of the nuances on the example of the standard arrangement of seats in the cabin in a two-class configuration:

• From the first to the seventh rows there are business class seats, where the seats are located at a sufficient distance from each other so that each passenger has a place to recline completely and stretch his legs forward if desired.
• But even in the zone of increased comfort there are not very convenient rows, these are the first and last, as they are closer to the toilet and the economy class, which will interfere with a smooth flight.
• In any line, seats A and F are considered the best for those who want to enjoy the view from the porthole and stay away from the aisle, however, then every time you try to get up you will have to disturb the neighbors.
• If you choose seats near the edge, C and D, then it will be easier to get up, you won’t have to lift anyone, but people and flight attendants passing by can accidentally hit you while you are resting.
• The 8th and 19th rows are located immediately behind the partition, which makes it possible to stretch your legs, as well as place a baby cradle on the wall, but here no one will lower the chair in front of you, since these are the first rows in each separate zone.
• From the same seats, the distribution of dishes at lunchtime begins.
• In the 18th and 31st rows, the seats are considered the most inconvenient, since they are located directly next to the toilet, the backs of the seats do not fall here, and there is always a line of people in the aisle.

Remember that food begins to be worn from the front rows and always ends last. Therefore, if you want to dine earlier and not wait until the others are fed, then you should not sit in the 29-31 row.

All places from 9th to 17th and from 20th to 30th are not distinguished by anything special. Here you just need to choose according to your own preferences, sit at the edge or at the window, closer to the beginning, middle or end of the cabin. For example, if there are passengers with children on the first lines, then children's crying can interfere with people sitting close. It is believed that in the middle of the cabin there is much less shaking and motion sickness, so seats in rows 9-17 are more preferable for those who find it difficult to bear the flight.

And if you want to sleep or work while traveling, it is better to give preference to chairs near the window, but further from the toilets and passengers with children. Remember that if you decide to choose a seat with extra legroom, for example, emergency exit, you will have to fulfill all the instructions of the flight attendants in case of unforeseen circumstances. Therefore, such places are inaccessible to the disabled and children.

Of course, which seat will be most comfortable for you depends on personal preferences, flight range, current plans and other requirements. So, for those who wish to periodically get up and walk around the cabin, it is advisable to sit on the edge. Parents with small children prefer to choose seats near the partition, as there are attachments for the cradle and necessary things in flight.

Sitting inside between other passengers (seats B and E) is not always convenient, as not everyone has enough armrests here and you are very dependent on the surrounding neighbors. But in almost any case, the last rows (30-31) are among the worst. After all, it is impossible to relax, lie down, lower your back, work here. Only those who absolutely need to fly in the chosen direction agree to such minimal amenities and no other options are foreseen.
