British Airways Boeing 787-9 (787-9 with Club World, 219 seats)
219 seats: 11 good, 43 mixed, 18 to avoid
Best seats
- Row 2, seats A and K (First): set back from the aisle, so it is more private
- Row 30, seats A, B, C, D, E, F, H, J and K (World Traveller): exit row on BA's map with open floor in front of the door: lots of legroom, though people pass through to the door and lavatories.
Seats to avoid
- Rows 6–7 and 10–13, seat E (Club World): middle seat of the centre three with no aisle of its own: you step past D or F to get out.
- Row 7, seats D and F (Club World): next to a galley, with light and noise during service
- Row 21, seats A, B, D, E, F, J and K (World Traveller Plus): last row of World Traveller Plus, with lavatories drawn right behind it: expect queues and galley noise.
- Row 44, seats D, E and F (World Traveller): last row of World Traveller, with galleys drawn right behind it: expect queues and galley noise.
WestJet Boeing 787-9 (320 seats)
320 seats: 17 good, 43 mixed, 18 to avoid
Best seats
- Rows 1–4, seats A and K (Business): window pod in Business with its own aisle access and no neighbour: the most private seat in the cabin.
- Row 15, seats D, E and F (Economy): extended Comfort seat with 35 in of pitch, set among Preferred Economy rows.
- Row 26, seats A, B, C, H, J and K (Economy): exit row on WestJet's list, facing a wall: 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 24, seats A, B, C, H, J and K (Economy): backs onto lavatories: recline is likely limited and people queue beside you.
- Row 24, seats D, E and F (Economy): westJet lists 3 in of recline here, against 4 in in the rest of Economy, with lavatories right behind.
- Row 39, seats A, B, C, H, J and K (Economy): backs onto the rear lavatories, so recline is likely limited.
- Row 40, seats D, E and F (Economy): last row, with the rear door area behind and lavatories either side, so recline is likely limited.
