A321 exit row in ET

Really quick question. Is it worth paying £24 for 23F exit row seat? I’ve read it doesn’t have a window but I can’t find any photos online to see for myself. Leg space is important, but I also like to be able to look out of a window.

Definately no window on that row - just row 9 if you can get it.

Purely for the legroom yes but given absence of a window i’d suggest to take C or D rather than A or F as it can get very cold by these large emergency exits.

There is a guide to seating on the shorthaul A321 in the Forum Dashboard. There are some photos of both exit rows in that thread.

Hopefully the pic will work. First and last time I'll be sitting in row 23 on the A321.

But why? These are the best seats on the plane after row 9, which is often in CE.

I totally share jwhite's opinion. Yes the leg room was nice, but it felt really weird not being able to see anything. Having been sat there, I understand now that seeing out the window is more important for me than the leg room. I appreciate that others may place more importance on the leg room.

Definitely nab the seat and print off an A4 picture of the sky and stick it to the side of the cabin.

as others have said, great legroom but no windows so if you have any 'avgeek' in you, it's not a great row. quite dark as well.
