How to choose a plane seat by the window?

When traveling by plane, you can choose a window seat, so that you can see many good attractions when flying, but at the same time, how to choose a window seat is also very important. After all, it can be said that it has something to do with the photos taken by everyone.

Which seat is good on the plane? 1. The premise of choosing the right position: first judge whether the engine room is single-channel or double-channel.

When we buy a plane ticket, we should first consider whether to choose a big plane or a small plane. Technical terms become mainframe and heavy aircraft, narrow-body aircraft and wide-body aircraft or single-channel or double-channel aircraft.

To put it more bluntly, if you look at an airplane, it has only one aisle and seats on both sides, which is a narrow-body airplane. If there are two aisles, it is a wide-body airplane. Generally, long-distance flights are wide-body aircraft. From the overall comfort, it is obvious that wide-body aircraft has more space and more spacious space, which is the best choice when choosing to travel and fly.

Comparison of appearance between wide-body aircraft and narrow-body aircraft

For example, if we want to fly from Beijing to Seoul, there are many types of corresponding airlines to choose from. Air China's aircraft are almost all narrow-body aircraft, while those of South Korea or Asiana Airlines are all wide-body aircraft. If the cost factors such as fares are excluded, the wide-body machine will definitely be more comfortable.

2. Find out the seat difference and cockpit distribution difference between the two planes in advance.

If you can only choose narrow-body planes (Boeing 737 series, Airbus A320 series), there are only six seats to choose from in ordinary economy class, with an aisle in the middle.

If you can choose a wide-body plane to travel, the window position on both sides (usually A or J) and the aisle position on both sides are the most comfortable.

After figuring out the previous problems, we began to consider the specific location. But ... But the problem is coming again. There are hundreds of seats. How can we rank them? This problem is easy to solve. Go to the airline official website in advance. As long as the airline is meticulous, it will show you the engine room map in advance. However, you will find another problem. Why are the seats of the same model arranged differently? !

Having said that, it is actually easy to understand, because many wide-body civil airliners have different cabin configurations. Just like we buy a car with a low middle and a top, the seat part of each plane can also be regarded as a cost control in operation.

For example, the same Boeing 777-300ER aircraft, relatively luxurious airlines (such as ANA, Korean Air and American Airlines) have relatively loose seating arrangements, that is, the overall number of seats is relatively small, and the space for each passenger is naturally large, so it will be relatively comfortable. But these airlines may have higher fares and the things they buy will never be sold.

As for those relatively cheap airlines, or Boeing 777-300ER passenger planes specially configured for passenger-intensive routes, their economy class density is amazing (for example, several models of Air China, several models of Air France and several planes of Air Canada). Once you get to economy class, you will find that the density is particularly high. If it is economy class, long-distance flights will be very tiring, but such flights are generally cheaper and are the first choice for poor passengers.

3. It's very important to predict in advance when I suggest to choose a seat.

Narrow-body machines generally consider aisles and windows, and sitting among three seats will be very uncomfortable. The window position can be more conducive to taking pictures, and the passing position is very convenient for going to the last WC or having an activity temporarily. If you can only choose from these two positions, you will definitely consider the window, because after all, the flight time of narrow-body aircraft is relatively short, and the enjoyment of seeing the scenery is greater than the little sense of oppression brought by crowded positions.

For wide-body machines, if possible, never choose the middle five or six positions. Being caught in the middle will break down particularly. Basically, I can only sleep, and I have to disturb my neighbors when I go out for activities. However, the wide-body machine itself is relatively large, and there are new problems in structure.

In fact, many wide-body passenger planes have different seats in each row. The specific reason is that the seat configuration in the cabin is different from that explained in the previous paragraph. If nothing else, consider this row by the window!

Some wide-body passenger planes have 2-4-2 seats (Boeing 767, a few old Boeing 777s and some Boeing 787s).

Airbus A330), as can be seen from some pictures above, a row of window seats for two people is particularly cool, especially suitable for couples to choose when flying. If you are single, you may or may not have an affair with these two positions. . .

At present, there are more flexible configurations to change the seating order. 3-3-3 configuration is the standard configuration choice of the latest generation of wide-body passenger aircraft (Airbus A350, some new Boeing 777-300ER).

Some Boeing 787). In this case, the comfort of the middle passengers will be improved, but the row by the window will become three people. In this case, the choice of location must consider the middleman, so in this case, it is ok to choose a window or an aisle.

The last thing to say is the high-density wide-body aircraft we mentioned before. Basically, their seating order in economy class is 3-4-3 (Boeing 747-8, some new Boeing 777-300ER), which means there are four people in the row between the two aisles. Needless to say, the comfort of these positions will definitely be worse.

How to choose the window position of an airplane 1? Four ways to grab a window position.

From a personal aesthetic point of view, I won't take photos in the aisle position, because I think this position should be more suitable for activities or rest, for fear that the stewardess will also infringe on the right to portrait, which is not appropriate! Then, how to choose the remaining window seats? In fact, it really needs to be robbed! Because the location near the window on each plane is indeed limited, the following are four common situations:

Use the airline APP to choose a seat 24-48 hours in advance: this is the most ideal way and the most convenient. Since the well-known airline APP has been blocked by the four major domestic airlines, we can only use the airline's own APP to choose the location. For example, Air China's APP has the function of check-in in advance. Remember to choose in advance when you open the check-in machine for the first time. You must grab the window position.

Arrive at the airport 2-3 hours in advance, wait for the check-in counter to open, and be the first to queue up for check-in: this is the oldest and most primitive method. If you don't have a corresponding airline APP, or the check-in work of the other party is not handled by our company (for example, the check-in work of China Eastern Airlines Japan is handled by JAL staff), then you can only rely on this method. You will see that at many airports abroad, many compatriots from China have long queues at the check-in counter. In fact, it means to choose a good location and check in early. Just tell the check-in staff that you need a window seat. If you arrive early enough, the general check-in staff will not embarrass you, and their service attitude is very good.

After getting on the plane, someone with good intentions may give you a window seat. This is true, and it did happen. Generally speaking, parents with their babies will change in order to be better with their children, or couples will change in order to sit together. They will give you their good seat by the window. You must thank them for giving you the opportunity to see the scenery.

When the plane takes off, if there are many seats in the back row, even a quarter of the cabin will be empty. Don't worry, maybe you can find a chance to change it. However, during the take-off and launch of the plane and the subsequent climb, don't worry and follow the flight attendant's arrangement, because if you change your position, it will cause related stowage problems and seriously affect flight safety. When the plane reaches the cruising altitude and stabilizes, there may be a chance to change it. The window seat is still yours. Don't worry.

2. How to select the front and rear viewing angles after locking the window position:

There are also about window seats on the plane. You should consider the direction of the plane after taking off and choose a suitable window seat, which is directly related to the scenery to be recorded. This question may be a bit abstract for bees with poor sense of direction, and it basically needs a brain to understand. There are too many factors involved here. The direction and height of flight, especially the change of light, must be remembered!

For example, when I fly to Tokyo, I wonder if it is possible to see Mount Fuji, the symbol of Japan, from the air. Later, I checked the relevant voyages, and it was indeed photographed. So I rehearsed it in detail: if you plan to see Mount Fuji from the air and your landing airport is Haneda or Haneda Airport in Tokyo, then the plane will turn 90 degrees south of Mount Fuji. At this time, if you sit at the window on the left, you can see the towering Mount Fuji.

If you choose to sit on the right, you may see it, too, but they meet much less time than on the left. This is a small chance to gamble. . . Facts have proved that no matter how the plane spirals down, the general direction will never be wrong.

First of all, in the first five rows of economy class, you can take an oblique picture of the scenery behind including the wings and the ground. The wings only appear at a 45-degree angle, so the composition will be very comfortable. After all, there is a diagonal line to illustrate the state of flight and the iconic scenery of flying, which is a relatively common shooting method. (This picture was taken with a mobile phone before landing at Fukuoka Airport, and the quality is somewhat poor. Please forgive me. )

Secondly, economy class has more room to play within the five rows at the rear of the plane, because this is the perfect angle in the cabin except the cockpit. Very vast, almost no obstacles. Because there are almost no obstacles in front of your camera except the wing tip, you can show it from many angles. If it is a medium focal length composition, it is basically to shoot the whole wing. If you shoot with a telephoto lens at this time, you can almost sweep the scenery out of the window in many directions. Relatively speaking, shooting from this position is much easier than the first 3-4 rows in economy class.
