Avoid 7A (No window at this seat position — wall only); 10A, 10B, 10E, 10F, 11A, 11B, 11E, 11F (Seat may not fully recline — exit row behind requires clear path); 25A, 25B, 25D, 25E, 25F (Near lavatory (behind) — some queuing traffic and noise); 26A, 26B, 26C, 26D, 26E, 26F, 27A, 27B, 27C, 27D, 27E, 27F (Immediately adjacent to lavatory (behind) — expect noise, odors, and queuing traffic)
The RwandAir Boeing 737-800 carries 154 passengers across Business + Economy. 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 2A, 2F, 3A, 3F, 4A, 4F. Another 16 seats are rated best or good. Look for 6 extra-legroom seats for the most room.
Seats rated avoid on this map are 7A, 10A, 10B, 10E, 10F, 11A. Another 20 seats are rated avoid. These are usually the back rows near the galley and lavatories, or middle seats with no window or aisle.
Yes. The front cabin is a fixed two-by-two recliner layout with a wider seat and a solid armrest between passengers, not a European-style economy seat with the middle blocked out. On the regional sectors this aircraft flies, that makes the Business seat a real step up in width and comfort rather than a marketing label.
The rows at the very front of economy and the seats beside the overwing exits carry the most legroom on this fit. The exit seats are the strongest pick for tall passengers, but check each one, since the seat directly ahead of an exit often has fixed recline. That trade-off is worth knowing before you commit.
For a two-hour sector the extra legroom of an exit row is a real comfort gain, especially if you are tall. The main catch is recline: the row immediately in front of an exit is frequently fixed upright, so aim for the exit seat itself rather than the row ahead of it. On a short hop the difference is smaller than on a long-haul, but still noticeable.
The back rows near the rear galley and lavatories see the most cabin traffic and noise, and recline is often tighter there. The seats just ahead of the overwing exits can also have limited recline. If comfort on a short sector matters, aim for the forward economy rows and steer clear of the very back.
