What part of an airplane is best place to be seated to experience the least turbulance?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

If you’re a white-knuckle flyer, sit over the front of the wing; that’s where you’re least likely to feel turbulence. Avoid the back, where you’ll feel every bump.

Original answer;
I forget where the information is... but I am a fountain of useless knowledge.
The least turbulent place on a plane is over the wings. The whole plane will feel turbulence (so you'll never fully get away from it), but it is reduced nearer the wings.
This is also where the emergency exit rows are which gives me more leg room (which helps at being 6'3").

Hey thanx a mill drmatt. Yeah i would call myself a 'white knuckle' flyer lol. I haven't flown in 4 yrs since experiencing a terrifying flight from Frankfurt Germany to Dublin Ireland (where i live) However I have since agreed to go on vacation with my partner & 2 friends to the west coast of US for 3wks. I figure life's too short to miss out on a hol like that! Oh and FYI, I don't believe theres such thing as "useless knowledge" lol. Take care and thanx again. Louise
@shoefloozy: That's funny. I did quite a bit of flying around in my first job. I have no worries about flying at all (and I'm hoping to get a pilots license sometime soon), but the two most scary for me ever landings were flying into Belfast (in a 13 seat prop plane) and Chicago (where we were literally flying sideways for a while to battle major cross-winds).
There are some GREAT informational sights about turbulence and how to move through them.
Personal experience and hearsay

Unfortunately, when the plane feels turbulence, the whole plane feels it and it doesn't matter where you are in the plane, you'll have to experience it.
Depending on when your flight is, maybe the best bet is to just take a nap or sleep through the entire plane ride so you don't consciously experience anything.
