exit rows on LX 1830 & 1831 ?
Well, just another question regarding my ZUR-ATH & return flights:
Anybody knows what kind of aircraft Swiss will use on LX 1830 and 1831? And: any ideas about the exit row seats in Y?
According to a Swiss-CallCenter-agent, they are supposed to be in row 23 (?) and have "limited comfort"?
Any hints? And many thanks from a rather tall guy,
Alexander

It´s supposed to be either an A-319, 320 or 321, according to the schedule.
On an A-321 it´s row 23, according to my plan, there are no exits rows in Y on the 319 and 320.

Speaking about exit-rows in Y; does anybody by chance know about the exitrow on the ZRH-YUL flight (row 28 on an A320-223)? As I was offered this seat by the reservation center, I was wondering whether it also has a window in the emergency door and whether these seat also have a personal screen.
Thanx!
Thanx!

They do have a personal screen in the armrest (like in C, just a bit smaller) and a window in the overwing exit door. That's a tiny one though.

This only applies to the A and F seats.
Other seats are fine (except for the middle ones of course!!).
Note that on the left-hand side of the aircraft, there are only two seats, E and F. The 'D' seat is removed and replaced by a flight attendant seat.
Additionally you should note that during many meal services, the area immediately in front of all exit rows on the A321 are used to store a service cart. This will limit leg-room for the duration of the meal.
The A319 and A320 only have overwing exits (window type), and so there is no benefit from having the extra leg-room affoded by an exit door.

On the A330, 28A has tons of legroom (except during takeoff and landing when a F/A is sitting in the jumpseat facing you).
