Avoid 15A, 15B, 15E and 15F (seat may not fully recline), 31A, 31B, 31C, 32A, 32B, 32C, row 33 and row 34 (immediately adjacent to lavatory) and 32D, 32E and 32F (near lavatory).
The Alaska Airlines Boeing 737-900ER carries 178 passengers across First + Economy. Seats are rated below, so you can see which have the legroom, the window alignment and the quiet — and which sit next to a galley or lavatory.
The seats rated best on this map are 2A, 2F, 3A, 3F, 4A, 4F. Another 28 seats are rated best or good. Look for exit row 16 for extra legroom. The map marks 12 seats with extra legroom.
Seats rated avoid on this map are 15A, 15B, 15E, 15F, 31A, 31B. Another 13 seats are rated avoid. These are usually the back rows near the galley and lavatories, or middle seats with no window or aisle.
Both carry the same cabin layout — two-two First and three-three Economy with similar seat counts. The MAX 9 is the newer, more fuel-efficient aircraft; the 900ER is the earlier generation. Seat products and legroom structure are comparable between the two.
The exit rows carry the most legroom in Economy, followed by the extra-legroom designated rows. On a longer domestic sector these rows are the practical first step before considering an upgrade to First.
On the longer 737-900ER, the rear of the cabin sits further from the front exits and close to the galley. For a transcontinental flight, a forward seat in Economy or an exit row mid-cabin is the more settled option.
