Seat Selection Overview

The Airbus A220-300 (formerly Bombardier CSeries CS300) is one of the most passenger-friendly narrow-body aircraft ever built. Its 2-3 economy layout (5 across) means more window seats per row and no middle seats in the 2-seat section — extraordinary for a single-aisle jet. Delta and Air Canada operate large fleets.

Best Seats on the A220-300

• Seats A & B (2-seat section on left side): The A220-300's unique 2-3 layout means the left side only has 2 seats per row. Seat A is window and B is aisle — no middle seat exists. This is a revelation on a domestic flight.
• Seat C (aisle on 3-seat right section): If you prefer the right side for deplaning or the galley location, seat C is the aisle of the 3-seat section — good freedom of movement.
• Exit rows on both sides: Exit row A-B seats are exceptional — the 2-seat section with extra legroom. Zero neighbors on your left (window side).

Seats to Avoid on the A220-300

• Seat E (middle of 3-seat section): The only true 'middle seat' on the A220-300. Not as bad as a 737 middle seat given the aircraft's wider fuselage, but it's still the worst of 5 options per row.

Pro Tips

• The A220-300 has one of the largest windows of any single-aisle jet — window seats are particularly enjoyable on this aircraft.
• Every seat on the A220 has a seatback IFE screen and USB power — unusually good amenities for a domestic narrow-body.
• Delta often uses the A220-300 on markets that previously had 50-seat regional jets — the step-up in comfort is enormous.
