The Best Seat On An Airplane, According To What You're Looking For

There’s a perfect day to book your ticket and a perfect time (more or less) to get to the airport. Where's the perfect place to sit?

A recent study from budget airline easyJet claims to pinpoint the perfect airplane seat: 7F. Their reasoning? It sells the best.

But these results conflict with an earlier survey from Skyscanner, which claimed 6A was the best after polling travelers and considering "lucky numbers."

Ticket sales and lucky numbers are great, but neither of these methods seems entirely sound to us.

So which seat on the plane is the BEST? Well, it depends on what you’re looking for:

- For SAFETY, pick an aisle seat in the rear, behind the "trailing edge of the wing."

- For SLEEPING, pick a window seat on the left side of the plane, near the middle of the aircraft.

- For STORAGE, pick a seat in the rear.

- For A QUICK EXIT, pick a seat on the left side of the plane, in the front.

- For LEGROOM, pick an aisle seat in the exit row.

- For KIDS, pick a seat in the bulkhead.
