Everything You Wanted to Know About Where to Sit on the Airbus A319

Yes, it is time for the next installment in our series of PSAs - Public Seating Announcements.

With the ERJ-145 out of the way, it's time to visit the Airbus A319.

Standard A319 (319)

Airbus A319

FIRST CLASS

The A319 has eight F seats. These are your usual domestic seats. Stated pitch is 38” and the width is 20.5”. I do not know if this is the case for all A319s (it is rare as a 1P I can snag Row 1), but on my flight this evening, there were cutouts on both sides and the pitch was in the mid-40" range. You actually could stretch out in Row 1. The seat recline on the A319 is quite generous, with the caveat that if the person in front of you is fully reclined, it is difficult to get out of the aisle seat and exiting the window seat will require the aisle seat to step into the aisle.

ECONOMY PLUS CLASS – ROWS 7-21

Row 7 is the best row, with 21A/21F being the best seat. Like on the A320, Row 7 has plenty of room plus (at least on my plane) the bulkhead did not extend all the way down to the floor, allowing you to store bags and your feet under Row 2. 20BC and 20DE due have an extra inch or two of legroom to allow folks to get to the Window Exit, but it is not nearly as generous as Row 20 and Row 21 on the A320. 21A and 21F do not have a seat in front of them (being the Window Exit) so they have "infinite" legroom. Rows 8-12 have 35" of legroom (1" less then the A320) and 18" width.

ECONOMY CLASS – ROWS 22-34

Pitch is very tight at 31", but at least the seats are wider then the 757.
