QantasLink Airbus A320
The QantasLink A320 carries 180 economy passengers in a 3-3 layout across 30 rows. The pitch varies by row and even by side of the aircraft. Rows 2-11 on the left (ABC) get 29.9 inches, while the same rows on the right (DEF) get only 29.1 inches. Rows 14-30 are similarly uneven: 29.8 on the left versus 28.2 on the right. The sweet spot is rows 12-13, which are exit rows at 36 inches. Width is 18 inches throughout with 3 inches of recline.
Best Seats on the Qantas A320-200
Rows 12-13 are the clear winners. At 36 inches of pitch, they're nearly seven inches more than the tightest standard rows. Book these the moment they're available. After that, sit on the left side (ABC) if you can -- you get about an inch more pitch than the right side on this aircraft. Rows 1-5 are worth it if you need to deplane quickly for connections.
Seats to Avoid
The right side of rows 14-30 at 28.2 inches of pitch is cramped -- that's tighter than most budget carriers. Rows 25-33 add engine noise on top of the tight spacing. If you end up in the back third of this aircraft on a flight over 90 minutes, you'll feel it. Over-wing rows 15-17 also get more vibration in turbulence.
