这些座位最受欢迎是因为波音747后面3排的座位是双座位（其他排座位是3个座位或更多）。当夫妇两人出行时，会优先选择经济舱的这些座位，因为他们可以有更多的私人空间，不被他人打扰。有道理。有趣的是，在头等舱，人们喜欢坐靠前的座位（如1A、1K，靠窗座位）。他们也许更喜欢头等舱的头排头号位置吧。
British Airways also found that people generally preferwindow seats to aisle seats as window seats had 6% morebookings and that people like the right hand side over the lefthand side of the aircraft.
英国航空公司发现相比靠近过道的座位，人们更喜欢坐靠窗座位，靠窗的比靠近过道的座位有超过6%的订座率。同时，相比飞机左侧的座位，人们更喜欢坐右侧的座位。
