SEAT SIZE
This airbus has a 3×3 seating arrangement and the width of the seat is comfortably sufficient. It can easily accommodate people wearing XXL though the seats aren’t much cushiony but doesn’t cause any discomfort. The seats can be reclined .
The armrests are perfect, completely foldable. If you are lucky enough to get a vacant adjacent seat then put the armrest up and enjoy more space. The headrest is not foldable.
There are no sockets ou USB ports for charging your electronics.
All overhead panels are different, really they are, check out Emirates review or Etihad Airways review to find the difference. Some have bigger lights or no lights, some have fans and some don’t and so on.
There are individual fans and lights for each passenger in this flight cabin which are desirable features for sure.
There is one small information screen for every 4 rows. You can keep an eye on the flight’s timeline and similar parameters through this screen. Air Arabia Flight
The tray table size is standard and adequate.
LEG ROOM
The leg space is great. This adds comfort to your journey. You will not have to pay extra to jump to rows with extra leg space, at least not for people who are 6 fts or less.
Seat upgrade to seats in 1st and 2nd row are for 70 AED and 50 AED respectively. The prices might change with time.
There is no foot rest but you can use the handle beneath your seat as a foot rest. It seems better than hanging your legs in the air or keeping your feet at the floor.
ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM & MAGAZINE
The flight has two ways of entertaining you:
Magazine
The Nawras magazine’s Jan-Mar 2022 issue talks about travel tips, hotels, Emirates, European cities like Dresden and Madrid. It elaborates on its flight network as well.
Skytime
You can also enjoy a few movies and some sitcom episodes on board through your screens. All you have to do is connect to flight’s network through wi-fi.
Food – Sky Cafe
There is information given in the magazine about the food items available on the flight. You can buy any item you like, it is not included in the base fare until bought otherwise. The food is good. I enjoyed the samosas.
OTHER FACILITIES
Pillows and sheets are not provided.
Windows have shutters. There is no Wi-Fi or calling facility on board.
There is no camera view available, if you are not sure what I mean by this then definitely check out the review of Emirates flight.
SERVICE & RIDE
The host and hostess were kind and prompt. The ride was smooth, right from taking off to landing.
The web check-in is easy but the site goes down often. If you wish to reschedule your flight then it is better to do it through calls. The fares are also economical. Air Arabia Flight
