Air Canada Boeing 787-9 (789, 298 seats)

298 seats: 29 good, 30 mixed, 9 to avoid

Best seats

  • Rows 1–8, seats A and K (Air Canada Signature Class): window seat in Air Canada Signature Class, angled toward the window with its own aisle access: the most private seat in the cabin.
  • Row 12, seats A, C, H and K (Premium Economy): first row of Premium Economy: nobody reclines into you, though the bulkhead in front means no under-seat bag space.
  • Row 12, seats D, E and G (Premium Economy): first row of Premium Economy: nobody reclines into you, though the bulkhead in front means no under-seat bag space and the bassinet position may seat a baby here.
  • Row 31, seats A, B, C, H, J and K (Economy Class): exit row on Air Canada's table: extra legroom. You must be willing and able to help in an emergency, and bags go overhead for take-off and landing.

Seats to avoid

  • Row 29, seats D, E, G, H, J and K (Economy Class): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing
  • Row 46, seats D, E and G (Economy Class): last row of Economy Class, with lavatories or a galley behind it: recline is likely limited and there is traffic and noise.
