Best seats flying into Jamaica is right side window seats ............... great view of the island 100% of the time .................. majority of the time the approach to MBJ is over the ocean so the left side sees nothing but ocean ............. on those rare flights that do fly a little inland where the left side sees coastline, the right side gets great views of the inner island
On the way home it does not matter ............. all the seats are bad because you are leaving
That is a good site Tawnee...flying as much as I do I ALWAYS know which seats to pick. These days the best seats cost extra on most airlines but in this girl's experience - worth it!
if ever we have a choice.....right side(I want window)...but more importantly...as far front of the plane as our $$ will allow....so we can be off the plane 1st....and running the ramps/halls/maze to the customs line(WITH our cards filled out correctly the 1ST time)
Tattoo always hollars da plane da plane!!, A little manipulation for free business class, if assigned to the emergency row you will be asked by the crew to see if your willing to help others in the event of an emergency. This happened to me once but i didnt hear the attendant and she shook me to get my attention, I explained that I had left my hearing aids at home and she responded you cannot sit in the emergency row. You will have to be reseated in the biz section!, I said ok if i have too lol.And then it was jack please....

I saw a guy get up from a "Door Isle" seat, while we were on the ground.....the cabin attendant saw him limp....he had to move, they felt he might become a hindrance in opening that door.......in a hurry if needed.........

You can always break a foot, call the airlines and they will gladly move you up close and give you a seat with lots of leg room. I got moved up to the 2nd row!
If they could only predict who will be sitting next to you. I'm a window seat person, fairly close to the front of the plane. When I returned on Wed., a large man was seated next to me on the MoBay-Miami segment... there went half my seat. I was squished. It was torture. Due to a few people rearranging the rows so he & his wife could sit together, he moved to the row behind me, aisle seat. I could breathe again. I couldn't thank those folks enough. Thank God my next flight will be in 1st class (FF miles) so I don't have to deal w/ this again. It's rare anymore that I don't lose half my seat to my neighbor.

My very small god-daughter (she was 15 at the time but all of 100lbs on her 5' frame) was squished against the wall by a VERY large (over 6' and by her description well over 250lbs) in First Class. I felt bad - it was her first First Class experience but she was in good humor. I would have been grouchy for sure.
I actually did have the same thing happen in a 1st class seat several years ago. I'm thinking I'm safe because of the seat size... wrong! My seat mate was a very nice woman but she was probably 3.5-4X my size, thus was part way in my seat as well as in the aisle. I felt for her as she obviously had some medical issues. I appreciated that she had the common sense & courtesy to buy a seat that would better fit her size & was thankful the entire trip that we were not in coach. I still had some room left in my seat for me.Originally Posted by rastagirl777
