How many seats does Lufthansa's A350-900 have in this configuration?

293 seats in total, arranged as J/W/W/Y/Y. This is one specific configuration — Lufthansa's fleet may include other configurations of the same aircraft type, covered below.

Is this the only cabin layout Lufthansa flies on the A350-900?

No — Lufthansa flies 2 different cabin layouts on the A350-900 for this one. Check your specific flight's aircraft registration where possible, since booking the same route twice can put you on a different layout.

Which seats should I avoid?

Seat 8B in Business Class is worth avoiding: The lavatory is directly next to you, so expect people queueing in the aisle and door noise, especially on a night 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 "derived" — the overall configuration confirmed, with some row-level detail worked out from seat counts and layout. 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.

About this cabin

Lufthansa's A350-900 in this configuration seats 293 (J/W/W/Y/Y). The seat totals here are confirmed from published airline data; some row-by-row detail is our own careful estimate where the airline doesn't publish it. Lufthansa flies 2 different cabins on the A350-900 — this is one of them. This is a version lottery: the flight page will tell you which one you're actually booked on where we can determine it.

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	12B	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.
Tall passengers	26B	Genuine extra legroom that also still reclines — not every extra-legroom seat does.
Nervous flyers	26B	Over the wing, close to the aircraft's structural centre of gravity — the smoothest ride on board when it's bumpy.
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 Class

Business Class spans rows 1–8 in a 2-2-2 layout. Worth avoiding: 8B, 8C, 8D, 8E — next to lavatory.

Premium Economy

Premium Economy spans rows 12 and 14–15 in a 2-3-2 layout. Worth avoiding: 15B, 15C, 15E, 15F — seat doesn't recline.

Economy Class

Economy Class spans rows 18–42 in a 3-3-3 layout. Worth avoiding: 42C, 42D, 42F, 42G — seat doesn't recline.

The Economy cabin is modelled as a uniform 3-3-3 block plus this one reduced row, placed to make Lufthansa's own Economy total come out exactly. The rear taper that would explain it is inferred rather than read off a Lufthansa drawing, which is why this configuration is derived rather than verified.

Seats to avoid

Seat	Cabin	Why to avoid it
8B	Business Class	The lavatory is directly next to you, so expect people queueing in the aisle and door noise, especially on a night flight.
8C	Business Class	The lavatory is directly next to you, so expect people queueing in the aisle and door noise, especially on a night flight.
8D	Business Class	The lavatory is directly next to you, so expect people queueing in the aisle and door noise, especially on a night flight.
8E	Business Class	The lavatory is directly next to you, so expect people queueing in the aisle and door noise, especially on a night flight.
15B	Premium Economy	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.
15C	Premium Economy	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.
15E	Premium Economy	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.
15F	Premium Economy	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.

Known quirks on this aircraft

Seat doesn't recline (24 seats: 15A, 15B, 15C, and 21 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 (18 seats: 1A, 1F, 7A, and 15 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 (36 seats: 1B, 1C, 1D, and 33 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 (37 seats: 1A, 1B, 1C, and 34 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.
Wing blocks the view (18 seats: 23A, 23J, 24A, and 15 more) — The wing sits directly outside this window, blocking most of the view — but you also get one of the smoothest, quietest rides on the aircraft.
