In which case how do explain this, from yesterday? The best, or maybe second best seat on an LCY-EDI Embraer 190, indeed one of the best seats in European shorthaul travel, blocked out,
CWS in 2D, rest of CE being mainly Silver. If you want a TS seat, then indeed you best go three quarters down the aircraft, most passengers tend to want to be near the front.
