Alliance Airlines Fokker 70
The Fokker 70 is the smaller sibling of the Fokker 100, carrying 79 passengers in a 2-3 economy layout on lower-demand charter and FIFO routes. It's the same basic design -- rear-mounted engines, Dutch-built regional jet -- but with a shorter fuselage. The smaller cabin means fewer rows, faster boarding and deplaning, and a marginally quieter cabin overall because there are fewer passengers generating noise. Alliance uses it where the Fokker 100 would be too large.
Best Seats on the Alliance Airlines 70
Front rows (1-4) are the quietest and deplane fastest. Left-side seats (columns A and B in the 2-seat section) avoid middle seat issues. Row 1 window seats have bulkhead legroom. The shorter cabin means even rear passengers don't wait long to deplane -- the front-row advantage is more about noise reduction than exit speed on this aircraft.
Seats to Avoid
Same principles as the Fokker 100: avoid the last two rows for limited recline and lavatory proximity, avoid the middle seat (column C) in the 3-seat section, and note that the rear rows near the engines are the noisiest. The Fokker 70 is quieter overall than the Fokker 100 simply because it's a smaller aircraft with fewer passengers, but the noise gradient from front to back still applies.
