The China Southern Boeing 737-800 carries 169 passengers across Business + 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 31C, 42A, 42B, 42C, 42H, 42J. Another 7 seats are rated best or good. The map marks 6 seats with extra legroom.
Seats rated avoid on this map are 31A, 31B, 31H, 31J, 31K, 32A. Another 27 seats are rated avoid. These are usually the back rows near the galley and lavatories, or middle seats with no window or aisle.
The over-wing exit rows win on legroom, and the map flags them. A window or aisle near the front of Economy pairs quiet with a quick exit, leaving the rear rows closest to the galley and lavatories.
It is a two-by-two recliner up front, not a bed. The gains over Economy are the wider seat and the empty middle, with lounge access thrown in on the ground, which is well matched to the short domestic and regional sectors this 737-800 flies.
Skip the last rows by the rear galley and lavatories if you can, since they draw the most noise and queueing. In a six-abreast cabin the least comfortable seat is a middle with nothing to lean on, above all on a full load.
