Avoid 11A (No window at this seat position — wall only); 15A, 15B, 15J, 15K (Seat may not fully recline — exit row behind requires clear path); 30A, 30B, 30J, 30K (Near lavatory (behind) — some queuing traffic and noise); 31A, 31B, 31C, 31H, 31J, 31K, 32A, 32B, 32C (Immediately adjacent to lavatory (behind) — expect noise, odors, and queuing traffic)
The China Airlines Boeing 737-800 carries 161 passengers across Business + Economy. Power is available on this aircraft. Every seat is 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 6A, 6B, 6C, 16A, 16B, 16C. Another 20 seats are rated best or good. Look for exit rows 16, 17 and 18 extra-legroom seats for the most room.
Seats rated avoid on this map are 11A, 15A, 15B, 15J, 15K, 30A. Another 12 seats are rated avoid. These are usually the back rows near the galley and lavatories, or middle seats with no window or aisle.
This is the slightly denser layout, with the same Business cabin but a few more Economy rows behind it. The seats are the same style; the difference is how tightly Economy is packed. For the exact cabin on your flight, check the published seat map, since China Airlines rotates more than one 737-800 configuration.
The over-wing exit rows carry the most legroom, and the cabin map flags the exact seat numbers. A window or aisle seat toward the front of Economy gives the best mix of quiet and quick boarding, while the rear rows sit closest to the galley and lavatories.
For a short sector it buys you a two-by-two recliner with no middle seat, priority boarding and a better meal. It is a sit-up seat rather than a bed, so the value is in the space and service on the day. On a longer regional hop that can still be worth the fare.
