Icelandair Boeing 737 MAX 8 (160 seats)
160 seats: 16 good, 12 mixed, 12 to avoid
Best seats
- Rows 2–4, seats A and F (Saga Premium): saga Premium window seat: wider seat with 40 inches of pitch, away from the front galley and lavatory.
- Rows 2–4, seats C and D (Saga Premium): saga Premium aisle seat: 40 inches of pitch and easy to get up without climbing past anyone.
- Row 13, seats A, C, D and F (Economy): exit row 13: extra legroom with full recline likely, but you must be willing and able to help in an emergency.
Seats to avoid
- Row 11, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): row in front of the overwing exits: recline is likely limited (Icelandair's drawing doesn't say), with no exit-row legroom of its own.
- Row 28, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): last row of the aircraft, against the rear lavatories Icelandair draws on both sides: recline is likely limited and the queue forms 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.
