The most comfortable and safe places on the plane

Like in any other aircraft, the safest seats in the Airbus A330-200 are located in the rear of the cabin, closer to the exits. This is because in case of an emergency, passengers seated closer to the exits have a higher chance of survival.

However, when considering comfort, the best seats in the Airbus A330-200 are in the business class and economy class with a 2-4-2 configuration. In these rows, passengers have access to the aisle without having to ask their neighbor to move, and they also have more legroom and wide seats with adjustable backrests.

If you prefer window seats, it is better to choose rows 30-32 as they are closer to the tail of the aircraft where engine noise is lower. However, these seats may have limited window views due to the wing structure.

In general, the choice of seats in the Airbus A330-200 depends on your preferences and needs. If safety is important to you, it is better to choose seats closer to the exits, and if comfort is a priority, then business class or economy class with a 2-4-2 configuration would be preferable.
