Dubai-based Emirates is the largest operator of the Airbus A380, with a fleet of 116 aircraft of this series. Unlike other airlines worldwide, Emirates continues to deploy its fleet on short- and long-haul routes, providing a high level of hospitality and comfort.

So, which seats on board the Emirates A380 should you choose depending on the class of your ticket? Simple Flying has figured it out.

Economy class

It is noted that A380 aircraft can accommodate from 399 to 557 passengers in economy class, depending on the flight. In this case, if you have a standard 3-4-3 seating arrangement and are flying alone, it is better to avoid seats B, E, F, and J.

The best seats are those near the "partition," namely seats A and K in rows 68 and 81, as well as rows 67 and 80. Seats B and C, which are suitable for couples, are also recommended. Additionally, rows 41, 52, 67, and 80 are considered the safest on the plane.

Premium Economy

This is a new cabin that is currently available only on some A380 and 777 aircraft. However, the company plans to introduce it to more than 120 aircraft in its fleet by the end of the year.

When choosing this class, you should pay attention to double seats for couples and avoid seats E and F if you are traveling with up to 3 people. This cabin has a 2-4-2 seating arrangement.

Business class

These cabins boast spaciousness, accommodating from 58 to 76 passengers in a staggered 1-2-1 arrangement. Choose your seats carefully, as they can vary significantly.

If you are flying alone and prefer to sit near the window, book seats A or K. Seats B and J are closer to the aisle, while seats like A, E, F, and K offer more legroom. If you're traveling with a companion, consider seats E and F. It's advisable to avoid rows 25 and 26, which are located near the restroom.

First class

With only 14 seats, each is unique and elegant in its own way. The quietest seats are in rows 2 and 3. The middle seats are arranged in a 1-2-1 pattern and do not have windows, so they may not be as appealing for this class, but they are ideal for couples. Passengers traveling alone should consider seats A and K.
