Most airlines give you the opportunity to choose your seats in advance, so it's no surprise that usually on the eve of the holiday season, the number of "best seats on the plane" searches on Google is at an all-time high.

A seat you choose poorly on your flight can directly harm your trip. Choosing the right seat has several advantages, including increased comfort, accessibility, visibility, security, and privacy. Expert Anton Radchenko from AirAdvisor spoke about the best and worst seats to choose from on an airplane, the Huffington Post reports.

The front of the plane

The area with the most amenities is at the front of the plane, according to Radchenko, because "you board and disembark first, minimizing the time spent boarding."

In addition, the front of the plane receives food and drinks first, there is less turbulence, and it is usually quieter, he adds.

Window seats

Window seats are the most desirable, and for good reason. You can use the window as a headrest, and people won't bother you when they want to go to the bathroom. "The left side of an airplane usually provides more headrest space than the right side because of the location of the windows, so aim for the left side," says Radchenko.

Middle and wing seats

Let's be honest, no one really likes sitting in the middle because it's very cramped. "But did you know that the middle, above the wing, is the best seat?" says Radchenko. "This is useful for those who suffer from motion sickness or prefer the softest possible ride," he adds.

Seats near the aisle

If you need extra room without losing the ability to recline your seat, then aisle seats are for you. "Aisle seats allow you to stretch out and raise the armrest for extra space and the ability to stand up, use the restroom, or move around during the flight," says Radchenko.

Seats with a partition

You should be careful when choosing a seat with a divider because you may not be able to store personal items at your feet.

"However, if you choose a bulkhead seat, you'll have extra space and privacy, and you'll be the first to receive drinks. In addition, many seats with a divider have a bassinet for babies. Depending on your needs, this may be the seat for you," adds Radchenko.

Seats to avoid

Seats in the back of the plane. You'll feel the turbulence more, and it's usually louder because of the plane's engines and auxiliary power nearby.

Seats near the galley. The galley can be in the front, back, or middle of the plane, and it's louder because it's where the crews are during the flight. This can be an incredibly negative factor during long flights or red-eye.

Restroom seats are usually louder due to people standing around flushing the toilet.

The rows near the exit are great for extra legroom, but you get all this at the cost of losing the ability to recline your seat and store your belongings at your feet.
