Not yet confirmed against a primary source. Treat row-level detail as indicative and check at booking.
Egyptair publishes 301 seats for this aircraft; this map draws 300. EgyptAir states 301 seats: 36 Business and 265 Economy. Business divides exactly into six rows of six and is drawn in full. 265 economy seats leave one over a whole number of eight-abreast rows — the smallest remainder any plausible layout gives — and EgyptAir publishes no diagram showing where that seat is, so this map draws 33 full rows and leaves it off.
What we could not settle on this aircraft
EgyptAir publishes no seat map for this aircraft. The 301 seats here — 36 Business and 265 Economy — come from a first-hand review of the actual London–Cairo flight, not from EgyptAir. Business divides into six whole rows exactly. The 265 Economy seats do not divide into whole rows of eight, so one seat sits somewhere nobody has described, and we draw 264 and leave one off the map. The Economy layout itself, 2-4-2, comes from a separate review of an EgyptAir A330 that did not say which sub-type it was, so treat the Economy cabin as our best honest reading rather than a settled fact.
Our best current understanding, not yet confirmed against a primary source.
About this cabin
Egyptair's A330-300 in this configuration seats 300 (J/Y). This is our best current estimate for this layout, built mainly from secondary sources — treat exact seat-by-seat detail with a little more caution than usual. Egyptair flies only this one cabin layout on the A330-300 — no version lottery on this type.
Quick pick, by traveller
| If you're… | Pick | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Travelling solo | 3A | A window seat rated highly with nothing working against it — lean on the wall, control the shade, nobody climbing over you. |
| Travelling as a couple | 3A | This row's layout puts a genuine two-seat pair here — no middle seat exists in this group, so it's just the two of you. |
| Trying to sleep | 3A | A window seat away from galley and lavatory traffic, so aisle lights and trolley passes are less likely to wake you. |
Seat map
Business
Business spans rows 1–6 in a 2-2-2 layout, 60in pitch and 25in seat width. Worth avoiding: 6B, 6C, 6D, 6E — seat doesn't recline.
Economy

Seats to avoid
| Seat | Cabin | Why to avoid it |
|---|---|---|
| 6B | Business | This is the last row of the cabin, or the row directly in front of an exit, so the seat back is fixed upright for the whole flight. |
| 6C | Business | This is the last row of the cabin, or the row directly in front of an exit, so the seat back is fixed upright for the whole flight. |
| 6D | Business | This is the last row of the cabin, or the row directly in front of an exit, so the seat back is fixed upright for the whole flight. |
| 6E | Business | This is the last row of the cabin, or the row directly in front of an exit, so the seat back is fixed upright for the whole flight. |
| 7B | Economy | The lavatory is directly next to you, so expect people queueing in the aisle and door noise, especially on a night flight. |
| 7C | Economy | The lavatory is directly next to you, so expect people queueing in the aisle and door noise, especially on a night flight. |
| 7F | Economy | The lavatory is directly next to you, so expect people queueing in the aisle and door noise, especially on a night flight. |
| 7G | Economy | The lavatory is directly next to you, so expect people queueing in the aisle and door noise, especially on a night flight. |
Known quirks on this aircraft
- Seat doesn't recline (22 seats: 6A, 6B, 6C, and 19 more) — This is the last row of the cabin, or the row directly in front of an exit, so the seat back is fixed upright for the whole flight.
- Often cold or draughty (10 seats: 1A, 1F, 2A, and 7 more) — Seats next to a bulkhead or door on a long-haul widebody are usually the coldest in the cabin — bring a layer for this one.
- High foot traffic (28 seats: 1B, 1C, 1D, and 25 more) — This aisle seat sits right next to a lavatory, galley or exit, so expect a steady stream of people brushing past, especially early and late in the flight.
- No underseat storage (22 seats: 1A, 1B, 1C, and 19 more) — Bulkhead and exit-row seats have nothing in front of the seat to store a bag under, so your bag must go in the overhead bin for the whole flight.
Frequently asked
- How many seats does Egyptair's A330-300 have in this configuration?
- 300 seats in total, arranged as J/Y. This is one specific configuration — Egyptair's fleet may include other configurations of the same aircraft type, covered below.
- Is this the only cabin layout Egyptair flies on the A330-300?
- Yes, as far as we can determine — Egyptair flies only this one cabin layout on the A330-300. There's no "version lottery" to worry about on this specific type for this airline.
- Which seats should I avoid?
- Seat 6B in Business is worth avoiding: This is the last row of the cabin, or the row directly in front of an exit, so the seat back is fixed upright for the whole flight. The full seat map marks every seat we'd steer you away from, with the specific reason for each.
- How confident are you in this seat map?
- This configuration is marked "provisional" — assembled from secondary sources and not yet confirmed against a primary one. See the sources and last-verified date lower on this page.
- Has a real person checked these individual seat scores?
- Not yet for this specific configuration. The scores above come from our rules engine, which reasons from real aircraft geometry, but they aren't marked as human-verified until someone has actually reviewed the unusual ones — see the verification section below for the current status.
