The Sticky suggests the exit rows on the flight are in rows 8 and 21 (quoted below)
The seat map I'm looking at ( for a GB Airbus 321 LGW-PFO in May) suggests the exits are row 9 & then an odd arrangment between rows 22,23 & 24
22 A B C D E / (This row is marked as "Exit" in MMB and has no F seat)
23 / B C D E / not marked as exit and has no A or F seat
24 A B C D E F (This row is also marked as "Exit" in MMB)
Have they changed the seat pitch on this aircraft since the sticky was written ?)
I guess 24 is correct for the exit row ... IIRC on BMI 23 is the exit row and on Aer Lingus it's 24
Currently I've got 24AB assigned - I guess these are okay seats (want something decent as it's a painfully long flight really)
GB Airways A321
There are 2 exits between rows 7 & 8 and 20 & 21. The bulkhead row is row 1 and seems as tight for legroom as the mainline Airbus fleet. Pitch in rows 2-7 seemed a little tighter than the CE norm (although some have said something similar about the mainline A321s too). The other seats with Club Europe pitch are rows 8-13 and they feel significantly more spacious. 9D is a weird seat - behind the crew position in row 8. More knee room, but less space to really stretch your feet out. Row 20 has seats in the BD and DE positions. 20A and 20F are rear facing crew seats. If you want to go for an exit row, 8 is much more generous than 21 plus 8EF is nice pair because of the crew position. The seat pitch from rows 21 backwards seems very tight, plus you get a huge queue for the toilets forming after the meal service. Avoid!
