The China Southern Boeing 737-800 carries 172 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 8 seats are rated best or good. Look for exit rows 42, 43 and 6 extra-legroom seats for the most room.
Seats rated avoid on this map are 31B, 31H, 31J, 31K, 32A, 32B. Another 25 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 are the legroom pick, and the map marks which seats they are. Otherwise a window or aisle toward the front of Economy blends a quieter ride with an earlier exit, well away from the rear galley and lavatories.
It is a properly wider two-by-two recliner in its own cabin, not an Economy seat with the middle taken out. The seat reclines rather than lying flat, but it is wider than anything back in Economy.
Where the map allows, steer clear of the last rows by the rear galley and lavatories, which pick up the most noise and traffic. On a full flight a middle seat with nothing to lean on is the weakest spot in Economy.
