Q&A with the Seat Expert

Archive for May, 2009

I’m a large woman wanting to know if i can fly (fit in seat)?

I am booked to fly Singapore Airlines from Singapore to London on the A380. I’ve chosen seat 48D as 47D is missing due to the crew hatch, thus allowing more leg room.

Could you confirm that this is the case?

Also, which TV does seat 48D use? is there a seperate fold out TV in the arm rest or do you have to use the TV on the back of seat 46D!

I am taking a flight from LAX to Hong Kong on China Air and am trying to find the best coach seat for my husband and I. I have long legs and bad knees so I tend to figit in my seat allot due to being very cramped. My husband has very broad shoulders and has trouble sitting next to people due to his shoulder width. He is taller than I am but only from the waist up so leg room is not as much of an issue for him. I am a light sleeper so people talking keeps me from resting. Very sensative to smells as well. The hum of the plane does not bother me. Where would be the best seat for us? They have put us at 30FG and 38HJ. The plane is pretty open.

What is the best seating configuration for a couple traveling together in business class on a Singapore Airlines Airbus A380-800. Windows behind each other or the two middle seats.

I am flying Amsterdam-Atlanta with Delta. I have sleep apnea and have to use a CPAP. Today I found out that Delta planes only have electrical outlets in first class according to my travel agent. Is that right?

I am going to take a MD-90 with China Southern soon. When I saw the review here, I am a bit confused. It says row 28 is good. I guess it is because the seats is the last row at emergency exit. But is it quiet, as the engines are located at rear. Should i take row 28 or the first row in econ class? by the way, why is 4C a good seat, not the other first row seats?

I’m looking at AA’s 767-300 to Barcelona. I have an obese client who I selling 2 seats to, if and only if, the arm rests go all the way back. Can you confirm?

I will take China Airlines A330-300 (Two class) from HKG to BKK. How are seats 23ABDE, 14AB,15AB or 16A? I wanted either 9AB,10AB, or 11A before but when I checked-in online those seats were already chosen by someone.
