Looking for advice for best seats for family of 3 travelling in business (Two adults and one 4-year-old). Cabin is wide open.
Upper deck, 53 D,E and F are absolutely ideal for a family of 3.
The child is in the middle seat (E). Parents are on either side (D & F) and are able to keep their eye on their kid at all times. E has direct isle access on both sides so it’s very easy for either parent to assist with anything or spend time with their child. The direct aisle access also means it easy for your child to get in and out of their seat for any reason and there’s no worries about tripping over a strangers foot stool or standing on their ankles.
If the foot stool is left up there’s space for the floor area to be used as a kind of small play area. Downstairs middle seats would give a bigger such area, however you’ll have a stranger in one of isle seats.
We sat exactly here as a family of 3 a few years ago on a LHR > BOS flight with a 6 year old. They absolutely loved it! Especially as they could put up the dividers to get some peace from their fussing parents!
59 D,E,F is the exact same set up, although you risk being served last as it is at the very rear of upper deck CW and the WTP bassinet seats are just through the curtain.
