Which airlines have Row 13? There definitely are some airlines which have row 13, and some which consistently do not have them, having e. g. Row 14 behind Row 12. But does anyone have an impression which airlines are the ones to have Row 13, and why?

Wozza, if you read it properly, you really do not have to have rocket science to understand it hehe 😀
Anyway, when I went to America in the summer, I am not 100% sure,
but I think that the Monarch A330’s had Row 13 and my dad was in it lmao 🙂

I was confused the first time I flew with Lufthansa. They have no row 17 as that number is considered unlucky in Brazil and Italy!

13 is not considered to be unlucky in all countries and superstitions concerning the number vary by country. Not sure about airlines, however, I do know that many UK airports (e.g. Manchester) don’t have a gate 13.

Aer Lingus have row 13. There is 20 cars in F1 1-21 no 13 there either.

I sat on row 13 on a VLM fokker 50 into London City a month ago. The plane was full except for this entire row, the stewardess asked if i wanted a window seat (as i was in a aisle seat on row 12). For some reson they where raise dup about another 10 inches from all the other rows too.

Curiouser and curiouser…
Looking around, it seems that it does not even go by airline!
I think that the Concordes consistently had 25 rows 1 to 26 – omitting 13, and this applied to BA craft, too. But the BA 747-s and 777-s, and the rest of their fleet, does have Row 13. Why?

First Choice definatley have a row 13 on their 757-200’s cos it is the row just behind the emergency exit seats…not sure as to why some airlines don’t have it though – maybe they are superstisious!

I find this confusing – your best of posing it in a different way, but if you are talking about parking postitions or something like that then perhaps they can learn a lesson from the London Eye and ditch 13 altogether, the eye is numbered 1->33 with 32 pods, does away with losing custom from the supersticous,
Sorry if this is not relevant but I haven’t got a clue what you are on about,

It’s very simple really. He’s asking whether or not anyone knows of any airlines that have a row numbered 13 on their aircraft!
I’m not sure of any that do, but then again I’ve never really paid any attention to it. I’ve certainly never been on row 13 on any of my flights. I was confused the first time I flew with Lufthansa. They have no row 17 as that number is considered unlucky in Brazil and Italy!
