Seats to avoid

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.
