The most comfortable and safe places on the plane

Like in any other aircraft, the safest seats in the Airbus A330-800neo are located in the rear of the cabin, closer to the exits. This is because in the event of an emergency, passengers seated closer to the exits have a higher chance of survival and a faster evacuation.

In addition, experts recommend choosing window seats as they provide better protection against potential injuries during an emergency landing. It is also advisable to avoid seats near the exits as they may be less comfortable due to limited legroom.

If you are planning a long flight, it is better to choose seats in business class or premium economy class, where there is more legroom and the possibility to fully recline during the flight.

Some passengers prefer seats in the middle of the cabin as they are closer to the aircraft's center of gravity and may feel more stable during the flight.

In general, the choice of seats in the Airbus A330-800neo depends on your personal preferences and needs. But in any case, do not forget about safety and follow the crew's instructions in case of an emergency situation.
