All aircraft use a business + economy cabin layout in three variants. Each aircraft design has its own characteristics, which will be discussed below. Also, you can find A321 cabins with new, from Recaro, and old seats.
Opinions vary about the comfort of the new seats, but the general opinion of passengers is that the old seats are more comfortable. Feedback from an Aviaforum.ru visitor about new seats on Airbuses:
35 rows. The chairs are thin and hard. The armrests are narrow, you can’t really rest your hand. Subjectively, the seats are more comfortable than in the B738, but many times more uncomfortable than in the previous A320/321. In general, not ice at all.
Considering that planes with new seats do not always correspond to the official A321 layout, choosing the best seat turns into an entertaining quest.
Another Aeroflot innovation is the installation of charging units under each seat in the cabin. On the one hand, it’s a useful thing, on the other hand, we read a review from an Aeroflot passenger:
A huge fly in the ointment - boxes with stupid (again) exercises under each chair - really make it difficult to place your legs. (a) and sharp, infectious (for ladies with bare legs, really), (b) Under the middle seat, nothing yet, at the porthole - generally uncomfortable
