Avoid this seat unless you are less than 5'8" tall (1.7m). Row 40 is where the aircraft fuselage begins to taper to the narrow tail section. Therefore the aisle seat (40H) is twisted a little to accommodate the narrower room for the two seats. This makes the legroom much tighter for anyone with long legs. Luckily I was able to swap into row 43G where there is more legroom.

Not the most comfortable of journeys - seat uncomfortable. Main meal was fine the snack was horrible both ways. Coming home on 16th service was terrible- as we were in back of place my husband got no choice of main meal or no tea or coffee with snack as staff run out of time. I’m not sure I would fly long haul with aer lingus any more

We paid for extra leg room for this long haul flight. However, my husbands seat 8A was not extra leg room. This was due to the seat being near the main door which restricted his leg room. Please avoid the mistake we made with these seats.

This is in. 2 seat only row so ideal for couples. Toilets are not at back of plane do not lots of people walking past. Aisle seat has slightly less room to store bag under seat in front than window seat. Movie choice was poor.

My husband was unable to eat his hot meal as there was not much room to manoeuvre when the tray table was down and the passenger in front had their seat reclined.
He felt it was the smallest seat area he had ever had on an international flight.

Avoid. There is a large box under seat 34a which takes up half the legroom for seat 35a. Maybe the black box recorder, in which case 34a would be a safe bet?
