Parata Air WE6502 Review: Jeju to Gimpo Exit Row Seat

Parata Air WE6502 Review: Jeju to Gimpo Exit Row Seat | TRVLOGUE

On our recent trip back from Jeju Island in 2026, we decided to try out Parata Air! I'd heard whispers that their seat pitch might be a bit more generous than other airlines, which definitely piqued my interest.

For us, as long as we can snag two seats together, we're usually pretty happy and tend to skip paying extra for advance seat selection. I mean, why spend money on seat assignments when you could be spending it on delicious local food, right?

Parata Air was incredibly thoughtful and sent a reminder via KakaoTalk (a popular messaging app in Korea) exactly 24 hours before departure — at 5:15 PM the day before our flight — prompting us to complete our mobile check-in. It was a lifesaver, as I almost completely forgot!

After quickly returning our rental car, we headed straight to drop off our checked luggage. Parata Air allows 33 pounds (15 kg) for checked baggage per person and 22 pounds (10 kg) for carry-on. Since there were two of us but only one suitcase, even though it weighed 35 pounds (16 kg), they were kind enough to let it slide, both on the way there and on the way back. Talk about a pleasant surprise!

But wait, there's more! We were actually upgraded to emergency exit row seats! So, the boarding passes we got from mobile check-in were no longer valid, and we received physical paper tickets instead. It was quite a stroke of luck, as we had also been assigned exit row seats on our flight to Jeju. Getting them for both legs of the journey was truly fantastic!

Even though it was just about an hour-long flight, having that extra legroom made it feel incredibly spacious and relaxing. I actually managed to sleep soundly for most of the flight – a rare occurrence for me on a plane!

We noticed that several earlier flights sharing our gate were experiencing delays due to connecting flights, so we braced ourselves for a potential delay. However, to our surprise, the delayed flights were swiftly moved to different gates, and we boarded right on time!

Then came the minor catch: we had to take a shuttle bus to the aircraft. Oh well, can't have everything perfect, right?

Is it just me, or did the plane look a little smaller than usual?

Thanks to those emergency exit row seats, the legroom was absolutely phenomenal, wasn't it?

The aircraft was an Airbus A320-200, configured with a standard 3-3 seating arrangement.

The interior really wasn't much different from other airlines, so taking photos felt a bit silly, but I snapped a few anyway—just like a first-time flyer!

The seats were upholstered in a dark gray fabric, which looked perfectly fine. For just an hour-long flight, they were more than adequate!

When fully extended, the tray table offered a decent amount of space, though it felt a little stiff.

As we were deplaning, I took a quick shot of the seat pitch from the row in front of us. Does it look about the same to you? Or maybe it's just my imagination!
