A Virgin Australia Airlines flight attendant has revealed why she always books fifth-row seats on planes when she's not traveling for work.
Whether you're a person who likes to sit near the window, or a fan of aisle seats, there's no doubt that some seats are definitely worse than others.
Rosie Awad - who has worked as a flight attendant since 2014 - told Escape that "the worst seat for passengers is the last row, or any row next to a toilet."
She emphasized that she always books in the fifth row of the plane because the seats in this row have a fantastic view (wing of the plane), have extra legroom due to the emergency exit and are close to the exit.
However, be aware that the best row for a seat on the plane may vary depending on the type of plane and your personal preferences. However, here are some general guidelines for choosing a good line:
Rows near the emergency exits: have more legroom.
Front rows: provide faster exit access, faster service and reduced noise. They can also have more leg room in some cases.
Avoid the last rows: they can be next to the toilet, which can result in noise and disturbance.
Middle of the plane: choosing a row in the middle can help balance factors such as noise, movement and proximity to lavatories.
Remember that aircraft seats can vary between airlines and even within the same airline's fleet. To make a good decision, consider your personal needs and preferences, such as whether you value legroom, easy access to the toilet, or a quiet environment.
