Aircraft seat maps
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An airplane seat map or seating chart, is a diagram of the seat layout inside a passenger aircraft. They are often published by the airliners for informational purposes, and are of use to passengers who can select their seat at booking or check-in.
Seat maps usually indicate the basic seating layout, the numbering and lettering of the seats, the location of the emergency exits, lavatories, galleys, bulkheads and wings. Airlines which allow internet check-in frequently present a seat map indicating free and occupied seats to the passenger so that they select their seat from it.
In addition to the published seat maps from airliners, there are a number of independent websites which also publish seat maps along with reviews of individual seats, noting the particularly good (extra legroom, quiet cabin, etc.) or bad (lack of recline, unusually cramped, missing window, etc.) seats.
