What are the best seats in economy on A380?

Finally, in economy class... Going with the same logic of the upper deck providing the best views with a less dense cabin layout, the best seats are certainly upstairs. As you may have guessed, sitting in the front row would provide slightly more legroom for passengers, so seats 70A, 70K, 80A, and 80K are ideal.

Is it better to sit upstairs or downstairs on A380?

If you're travelling on the A380 superjumbo you have two decks to choose from – upper or lower deck. Generally, sitting on the upper deck is preferable because of the usually smaller cabin and lower density configuration (2-4-2 vs. 3-4-3). It's also quieter sitting upstairs.
