Alaska Airlines Boeing 737 MAX 8 (161 seats)
161 seats: 44 good, 18 mixed, 12 to avoid
Best seats
- Rows 2–4, seats A and F (First Class): first Class window seat away from the front galley and lavatory.
- Rows 2–4, seats C and D (First Class): first Class aisle seat: wider recliner, easy to get up without climbing past anyone.
- Row 6, seats A and F (Premium Class): premium Class bulkhead window, the first row behind First Class: 4 inches more legroom than Main Cabin and early off the plane, though bags go overhead for takeoff and landing.
- Row 6, seats C and D (Premium Class): premium Class bulkhead aisle seat right behind First Class, with Premium Class legroom and nobody reclining into you.
Seats to avoid
- Row 15, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Main Cabin): row in front of the overwing exits: recline is likely limited (Alaska's drawing doesn't say), and it has no exit-row legroom of its own.
- Row 32, seats A, B and C (Main Cabin): last row on this side, against the lavatories Alaska draws behind it: recline is likely limited and the lavatory queue forms by your seat.
- Row 33, seats D, E and F (Main Cabin): last row of the aircraft, against the rear lavatory and galley: recline is likely limited, with galley noise and the lavatory queue beside you.
Gol Linhas Aereas Boeing 737 MAX 8 (Domestic, 186 seats)
186 seats: 30 good, 12 mixed, 9 to avoid
Best seats
- Rows 2–5, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (GOL+ Comfort): gOL+ Comfort seat near the front: more legroom and recline, GOL says, and quick off the aircraft.
- Row 17, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): gOL+ Comfort seat behind the gap GOL draws over the wing: extra legroom, and likely an exit row, so you must be willing and able to help in an emergency and bags go overhead.
Seats to avoid
- Row 10, seat A (Economy): window seat without a window, GOL says: a wall panel where the view should be.
- Row 11, seats A and F (Economy): window seat without a window, GOL says: a wall panel where the view should be.
- Row 33, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): last row: it doesn't recline, GOL marks, and it backs onto the rear lavatories, with queues and noise beside you.
