Seat selection

Choosing your seat on a plane can make a difference to your flight. These are the things you need to take into consideration when booking on line or at the check-in counter.

• try to be close to the exit doors (either front or rear of cabin if the airport allows disembarking off the rear of the plane)
• on International flights, try to have a seat away from the toilets (to save endless interuptions with people, lights flashing in your eyes)
• on International flights, ask your travel agent to book a seat that will have the least interuptions (this may be down the rear of the plane, where there are only 3 seats in the middle aisle)
• If you have a taller frame, are over weight, or suffer with anxiety, request a seat with extra leg room. It's worth it for the extra money paid!
• Window or Aisle - this is one of those individual preferences. I love a window seat going into new cities so I can have a good aerial view on arriving and departures. However domestically I usually opt for an aisle seat so I don't feel so hemmed in.
