Not really, because it all depends on the kind of crash, some fly in tothe ground, so the back would've been the safest, and some have the tail fall off on take off so the front is the best, but if you're at 35 000 feet and something happens, you're all history really. Closest to the doors is the best, so you can get out quick. Over the wings is the smoothest. I just look out the window at Luton airport everyday and think how many flights come in and out without anything ever happening, and that really helps, like they say you're more likely to have a crash on the wat to the airport than on your flight.

scary...I thik I'll just stick to the back...the annoying thing bout the escape doors in BA is that they're at the beginning of the cabin near the baby section

Nuthin worse than a screaming kid on a long haul flight, especially when you're trying to sleep, it hard enough anyway. The problem with the back is it's a bit bumbier and a bit noisier than the front, no big problem but it's noticeable. |

I'll try to get seat # 39B or J when I travel this summer. More leg room I think???

Nice picture go for row 1, not a lot of leg room on BA anyway, row 26 would be good, lots of legroom by the door there, but not a or k, the escape slide is in the way, and the armrests don't go up, bit of a pain. I've seen that airline meals, funny that someones taken the time to do that. www.airdisaster.com is nother good one. Gotta go now wifey needs to check her e-mail, see ya soon and take it easy. |

Yeah that's terrible, don't know how you cope, you don't always want a drink but when you do it would be nice to be able to have one. So what do you do? |

I have to drive to the nearby city called Ajman to a place called 'hole in the wall' or I caould just go to a bar in Dubai, which is further away.
If ur caught with alcohol in your car, even in the boot, they f*cking arrest you .
Also just thought to mention that if you get 10 speeding tickets, they give you a discount
