Avoid 15A, 15B, 15C, 15D, 15E, 15F (Near bassinet position (ahead) — potential noise from infants); 22A, 22B, 22E, 22F (Seat may not fully recline — exit row behind requires clear path); 38A, 38B, 38C, 38D, 38E, 38F (Near lavatory (behind) — some queuing traffic and noise); 39A, 39B, 39C, 39D, 39E, 39F, 40A, 40B, 40C, 40D, 40E, 40F (Immediately adjacent to lavatory (behind) — expect noise, odors, and queuing traffic)
The Fiji Airways Boeing 737 MAX 8 carries 170 passengers across Business + Economy. Power and Wi-Fi are 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 1A, 23A, 23B, 23C, 23D, 23E. Another 20 seats are rated best or good. Look for 18 extra-legroom seats for the most room.
Seats rated avoid on this map are 15A, 15B, 15C, 15D, 15E, 15F. Another 22 seats are rated avoid. These are usually the back rows near the galley and lavatories, or middle seats with no window or aisle.
The aircraft, not the cabin. The layout is identical, a small two-by-two business cabin and a three-by-three economy, but the MAX runs quieter engines and a more modern cabin, so the same seat buys a slightly better ride.
For a few hours across the Pacific, the wide recliner, the space and the service make it a comfortable step up, and the small cabin stays calm. It is not a bed, so weigh it as a day product rather than a sleep one.
The over-wing exit rows if legroom is the priority, otherwise the forward rows for quiet and a fast exit. The last rows near the rear galley and lavatories take the noise and the queue, and they are the last off the aircraft.
