SEAT
PITCH
This
is the distance between a row of seats - the measurement from the same position on two seats, one
behind the other - it is NOT the
legroom area as some believe. (For example, the back face of the
seat in front of you, measured to the same point on the back face
of the seat you are sitting in).
SEAT
WIDTH
We
have not included Seat Width in this table - this
is largely due to considerable discrepancy between the
way many airlines quote seat widths. Some provide
the measurement between the inside of the armrests,
others the distance between the middle of armrests etc.
Seat
pitch details are believed to be correct at time of publishing,
but Skytrax cannot be held responsible for any errors that may exist.
Please note that some figures represent new product installations
that may not be completed or available across an airline's whole fleet of
aircraft.
