The free two inches nobody charges for
Eurowings does not draw this cabin at a single pitch. Rows 2 to 10 measure about 30 inches and the rows from 14 back at about 28. That is fifty-four seats with two inches more legroom than the rest of the aircraft, and Eurowings does not sell them as an extra-legroom product.
Two inches on a short-haul seat is the difference between your knees touching the seat in front and not. On a two-hour sector to Palma it is the most useful thing you can do for free, and the only reason not to sit there is the BIZclass curtain, which can land in front of you and shorten your options.
The best free seat on the aircraft is a window in rows 4 to 9. Thirty inches of pitch, a normal recline, no fee, and far enough back that the curtain rarely reaches you.
The trap: row 11 has the legroom, row 12 has the legroom and the recline
The two overwing exit rows are 11 and 12, both drawn at about 34 inches. On the booking map they look identical and Eurowings prices them the same.
Row 11 sits in front of the aft exit, so its seat backs are locked upright to keep the escape path clear. Row 12 has nothing behind it to protect and reclines normally. Paying for row 11 buys you the same floor space and a fixed seat back.
Row 10 is the one to actively avoid. It is locked upright for the same reason, and it gets none of the exit-row space — only the ordinary 30 inches that the whole front band has. A fixed seat back and standard front-cabin legroom is the worst combination on the aircraft, and nothing on the booking map warns you about it.
Row 1 and the moving curtain
Eurowings sells BIZclass at the front of the same cabin, with the middle seat blocked and left empty. The dividing curtain runs on a track and moves with demand, so on a light business day it sits two rows back and on a heavy one it reaches much further.
Row 1 carries extra legroom and, with it, the usual bulkhead penalties: no underseat storage, so everything has to go overhead, and the tray table folded into the armrest, which costs about an inch of usable width. 1D, 1E and 1F also sit directly behind the forward galley, so you get service noise and cabin lighting throughout.
Economy: best seats
- 12A and 12F — the aft overwing exit row. About 34 inches of pitch and a working recline. The best seats on the aircraft.
- 12C and 12D — same row on the aisle, if being first through the mid-cabin exit matters more than a window.
- Rows 4 to 9, window or aisle — 30 inches of pitch for nothing, with a normal recline. Skip 2A and 2F, whose windows sit behind the seat.
- Rows 14 to 21 — the quiet stretch behind the wing, clear of both galleys and well ahead of the rear lavatory queue.
- Row 14 specifically — immediately behind the exit rows, so nobody reclines into you from a seat with extra space.
Economy: seats to avoid
- Row 10 — fixed upright, with only the ordinary 30 inches the rest of the front band has. The worst value on the aircraft.
- Row 11 — the legroom trap. Exit-row space, no recline, and the same price as row 12.
- 31A and 31F — no window at all. Both look at blank wall.
- Row 31 in general — fixed upright against the rear wall, with a lavatory immediately behind 31C, 31D and 31E and the galley alongside.
- Row 30 — one row better, but 30A to 30D are still inside the galley zone.
- 2A, 2F, 22A, 22F, 25A, 25F, 28A and 28F — windows set behind the seat, so you lean back to see out.
Is it a ceo or a neo? Mostly it does not matter
Eurowings flies both. The 180-seat A320neo is drawn to the same plan as this aircraft: rows 1 to 31 with 13 skipped, exit rows at 11 and 12, the same forward pitch band. Everything here applies to it.
The exception is a single 170-seat A320neo, which skips row 3 as well as row 13, carries only A, C, D and F in row 1, and has a marked eight-seat Business cabin. If your map is missing row 3, you are on that one aircraft.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best seat on the Eurowings A320?
12A or 12F. Row 12 is the aft overwing exit row, with about 34 inches of pitch and, unlike row 11, a seat back that reclines. If you would rather not pay, a window in rows 4 to 9 gives you 30 inches instead of the 28 inches most of the cabin gets.
Do the front rows of the Eurowings A320 have more legroom?
Yes, and it is not sold as an extra. Rows 2 to 10 measure about 30 inches against about 28 from row 14 back. The catch is the BIZclass curtain, which moves with demand and can land in front of you.
Which Eurowings A320 seats have no window?
31A and 31F, at the very back of the cabin, where the fuselage tapers and there is no window at the seat position. 2A, 2F, 22A, 22F, 25A, 25F, 28A and 28F have glass set behind the seat, which is a restricted view rather than none.
Why does row 10 not recline?
It sits directly in front of the first overwing exit, and the path to the exit has to stay clear. Row 11 is locked for the same reason. Row 10 is the worse of the two because it gets the restriction without the extra legroom.
Does the Eurowings A320 have WiFi and entertainment?
Yes to both, and neither is a seatback screen. Inmarsat GX Aviation satellite WiFi is fitted across the fleet, and Wings Entertain streams films, series and a moving map to your own phone or tablet over the cabin network. Bring a charged device and something to prop it up with.
Is BIZclass on Eurowings worth it?
It is the standard European arrangement: the same seat as Economy with the middle seat blocked, plus priority handling and catering. You are buying the empty seat beside you, not a different chair. The curtain moves with demand, so the cabin size changes flight by flight.
