The most comfortable and safe places on the plane
Like in any other aircraft, the safest seats in the Airbus A300-600/600C/601 are located in the rear of the cabin, closer to the exit. This is because in the event of an emergency, the aircraft usually gets destroyed in the front, while the rear remains more or less intact. Additionally, the exits are located in the rear of the cabin, allowing for a quick and safe evacuation if necessary.
As for comfort, it all depends on the passenger's preferences. Some people prefer window seats to enjoy the view during the flight, while others prefer aisle seats for easy access to exit the aircraft. Many passengers also prefer to sit in business class or first class, where there is usually more space and more comfortable seats.
In general, choosing a seat on the aircraft is an individual choice that depends on the passenger's needs and preferences. However, if safety is a priority, it is better to choose seats in the rear of the cabin, closer to the exit.
