Air Transat

✅ Trip Verified | Being a normal sized guy...5'9" and 165lbs., I was reasonably comfortable on board the 2 flights, both in the 4 hour range. Seats were what I get on most commercial flights I have taken over the past decade. I had 7H (aisle) on the way up and 14c (aisle) on the return. 14c is a great seat and I will book that again! Personally, no complaints from a seasoned flyer.

Not Verified | Online booking and check in was easy but having flown numerous times previously from Gatwick to Toronto and Air Transat has gone downhill. It seems the seat area is smaller equivalent to Easyjet in the UK. I'm 5ft 10" medium build and struggled.. Anyone overweight will not only be extremely uncomfortable but make other passengers suffer. Is the 3x3x3 seating normal on a 330 Airbus? The food was pretty awful. Ok so it's a budget airline and costs are tight, l get that but don't expect much and you're be fine. Just not as it was.

✅ Trip Verified | This was by far the most uncomfortable flight. Seats are incredibly hard and way too narrow for any comfort. I had booked an aisle and my boyfriend had the window seat. Most of the time, nobody will take the middle, unless the flight is at capacity. Unfortunately, this time I was asked to move into the middle seat and was sandwiched between two very large men whose shoulders far exceeded the width of the seat, including my own. I am also not a tiny person. I had to sit wedged sideways just to fit and dislocated a rib in the process. I used to enjoy flying with Air Transat, but this has gotten way out of hand. It is truly appalling and cruel to treat people this way. There are only 12 club class on this airline so 12 people can pay an exorbitant amount to be comfortable while the other 300+ passengers get to travel in extreme discomfort.

✅ Trip Verified | The seats were horrible! For an 11 hour flight, you'd think the airline would provide an aircraft that's comfortable. The seats were narrow, very little cushion and uncomfortable. We even paid an additional $83 each to upgrade to premium seats. What a waste of money. Pay a little more and fly in comfort, especially when flying overseas or for such a long period of time.

Not Verified | This is the second flight with Air Transat in the last 2 months. Although these planes are newer, the seat comfort is quite terrible. Anyone dealing with any back issues or lower back problems, please re-think this airline. My second flight confirmed why I should avoid Air Transat. It's not worth the cost of the pain, massages and possible chiropractor you will need to recover from these seats. I was on a 5 hour flight - and 4 days later I am still dealing with the pain of those seats.

✅ Trip Verified | Toronto to Cancun. Business Class on this leisure airline is known as "Club Class". We enjoyed a most pleasant flight, we began with pre-flight mimosas, our pre-ordered Gourmet meals were good, the IFE performed perfectly (once you get the hang of the pullout control unit, but the also touchscreen works, if you can reach it, it's a Row 1 issue) As compared to years prior, the included Comfort Kits no longer have slippers, so take your past ones, nor headphones which is good as many pax like myself bring our own. The only thing is that by using the second door (around Row 10) to deplane, the crew should make the Economy wait until the Club pax have exited first. Otherwise, for everything you get with AT Club Class, highly recommended.

Not Verified | The standard recommended layout for this aircraft is 8 seats per row. Air Transat have squeezed in 9 seats. The seats are tremendously uncomfortable, highly unsuitable for a 9.5hr flight from Vancouver to London, let alone the London to Calgary flight we did when we flew out there. I found myself constantly adjusting my position to alleviate the lower back pain caused by the woefully inadequate seat padding, also being quite broad-shouldered, I was always conscious of nudging the person in the neighbouring seat. The legroom is just about okay, but when the seat in front is reclined it makes it impossible to get a decent viewing angle and also quite tricky to get up to love about. The aisles are also very narrow, I found it difficult to go for walk without tripping up and walking sideways down the aisles to avoid collisions. Overall, it was very, very disappointing, the price difference between this airline and WestJet or Air Canada wasn't huge so next time I shall avoid Air Transat and pay a little extra for the flights from Air Canada or WestJet because long haul in this predicament is absolutely awful!

✅ Trip Verified | Paid extra and booked 2x2 in rear of plane for a bit of extra space - even these seats were extremely uncomfortable especially for an 8 hour flight! When seat in front reclines, its in your face,- trying to get up from seat when person in front reclines was nearly impossible. Short haul flights would be ok I guess but still uncomfortable

Not Verified | Always book Option Plus. It allows seat selection, express check in, extra baggage, priority baggage handling, meal, drink, blanket and headphones. Always book the 2 seat section at rear for extra room.

✅ Trip Verified | Our seats were 2H and 2K. I sat in 2K. The seats are in the club class cabin. The first thing that struck me was just how much shoulder room I had. I could actually sit in a completely relaxed position with my arms at my sides and neither me nor my fiancee touched arms unless we chose to. Last time we flew we spent the entire flight in a really awkward human sandwich with a stranger in the aisle seat. The next thing is the leg room. There's actually a little hanging footrest under the seat in front to put your feet in and it's comfortable enough. The recline of the seat back is decent as well. I had no difficulty getting comfortable. The in-flight entertainment system was great. It had a little remote that controlled the pointer in the screen and gave the ability to just lie back and use the controller without having to lean forward to change selections or adjust settings. Small detail but a good one. The only issue for me is still seat spacing. When you need to get up to get to the aisle it is a tad easier to do but it still requires a cautious effort. All in all it's a great seat and more than comfortable enough. Our connecting flight ended up being a substitute by Hi-Fly on their A340-300 with Emirates old 1st class cabin and even with the insane leg room it offered, I still prefer the club class seat as it was wider and for me, that's huge because I like my shoulder room.
