Despite the abundance of airliner models that are widely used by various companies today, air carriers still prefer Airbus aircraft. These creations of European designers are ideal for passenger transportation, and they are equipped with the most modern electrical equipment and navigation devices.
Of all the models of this company in Russia, the Airbus A319 is most often used. The layout of the interior of this liner is often found on the Internet in several configurations. This variability allows you to put aircraft on routes of different ranges. Today we will talk in detail about the aircraft that the largest airlines in our country use in their activities. You can also find out which seats in the cabin can be considered the best.
General description of the aircraft
"Airbus A319" (the layout of the cabin of several models wegiven in the following sections of the article) belongs to the Airbus A320 family and is the second most popular airliner in the world. This aircraft is four meters shorter than its counterpart, so the number of passenger seats has been reduced in it. The development of this model began in the early nineties of the last century, the liner made its first flight in 1995. A year later, he received a certificate of conformity and began to be mass-produced.
It can be said that it was from that moment that the triumphant march of the Airbus A319 around the planet began. It was actively purchased by foreign airlines, and gradually this model became the most popular among Russian carriers. Today, such aircraft make up the majority of the aircraft fleet of S7 Airlines and Rossiya. It is noteworthy that throughout the twenty years of using the Airbus A319, design engineers have been constantly upgrading it, and it still has not lost its relevance.
Modifications of the liner
To date, there are three modifications of the Airbus A319 on the market. The layout of the cabin of each model can reveal the differences and similarities of these aircraft.
But experts know that airliners of the same family also differ significantly in terms of technical characteristics:
- The Airbus A319-100 is considered a classic model and can fly almost seven thousand kilometers.
- The Airbus A319LR is a more modern airliner that is equipped with several additional fuel tanks and cancover distances over eight thousand kilometers.
- The Airbus A319ACJ was launched as a business class airliner, which can travel up to thirty-nine people over a distance of twelve thousand kilometers.
Recently, the Airbus company introduced the latest modification of the liner - the Airbus A319 NEO. The aircraft differs from previous models in a different wing structure and updated engines.
Quick Specs
Aircraft of this family are equipped with engines of two modifications, they are manufactured by different factories. About twenty percent of the structure is made of composite material. The airliner is designed for medium-range routes and has the appropriate fuel tanks. Four passenger doors can be seen on the body. The total capacity of the Airbus A319 (the cabin layout confirms this) is one hundred and twenty-four people. However, there are models that can carry up to one hundred and fifty-six passengers at the same time.
Aeroflot: Airbus A319 cabin map
The largest Russian airline actively uses aircraft of this model. Therefore, passengers fly on them quite often and are always interested in which seats are best to choose. In order to clarify this issue, we need a diagram or photo of the Airbus A319 cabin, indicating the rows and the most comfortable seats for traveling. Aeroflot uses airliners of two cabin modifications: for one hundred twenty-four passengers with two types of cabin and for one hundred and fifty-six people accommodated only in economy class. Weconsider a two-class version of the aircraft.
The Airbus A319 cabin layout, given by us, clearly shows which places can be considered the best. They are marked in green and yellow. The sixth row can be called convenient, but with some limitations. It will not be possible to stretch freely here, but due to the wall located in front, it is quite comfortable to sit. In addition, passengers in this row are the first to receive a hot lunch. On the seventh row, the seats have some reclining restrictions, so these places are suitable for short trips. The eighth row is considered the most comfortable, there is a lot of free legroom, and even a long flight will not cause inconvenience.

This carrier was one of the first in Russia to start buying Airbuses. At the moment, the airline has about twenty classic-configuration aircraft. They provide eight seats in business class and one hundred and twenty in economy. As you can see from the map, the best places here are also marked in yellow and green.
In front of the third row there is a small curtain separating the salons. Therefore, travelers will have plenty of free space during the flight. Seats in the eighth row are comfortable, but keep in mind that you cannot recline the backs. Therefore, it is worth landing here only in cases where your flight will not take more than two hours. The ninth row is the cherished dream of most passengers - there is a lot of space,and the flight turns into pure pleasure.
