Avoid 12A, 12D (No window at this seat position — wall only); 12B, 12C (Seat may not fully recline — exit row behind requires clear path); 19B, 20A (Near lavatory (behind) — some queuing traffic and noise); 19C, 19D, 20B, 20C, 20D (Immediately adjacent to lavatory (behind) — expect noise, odors, and queuing traffic)
The RwandAir Bombardier CRJ-900 carries 75 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 4A, 4B, 4C, 4D, 13A, 13B. Another 9 seats are rated best or good. Look for 8 extra-legroom seats for the most room.
Seats rated avoid on this map are 12A, 12B, 12C, 12D, 19B, 19C. Another 5 seats are rated avoid. These are usually the back rows near the galley and lavatories, or middle seats with no window or aisle.
Yes, and it is unusual for a regional jet of this size to carry one. The front rows form a small dedicated Business cabin rather than a curtained-off economy block, so on the short African sectors this aircraft flies you get a real premium option. It is compact by mainline standards but fully separate from economy.
No. The cabin is laid out two seats each side of a single aisle, so every seat is either a window or an aisle and there are no trapped middle seats. The real trade-off is between the window seat, which loses a little shoulder room to the curved fuselage, and the aisle, which keeps it. Pick based on whether you value the view or the elbow room.
The front of the cabin, including the small Business section, sits furthest from the rear galley and lavatory and stays the calmest. On a compact airframe like the CRJ the noise from the back carries, so the rows near the rear are the ones to weigh up if quiet matters. Aim forward if you can.
A few rows on the CRJ-900 have a window that sits slightly out of line with the seat, or a stretch of wall where a window would be expected. If the view matters to you, check the specific seat on the map rather than assuming every window seat has a full window. It is a small quirk of the airframe rather than a widespread problem.
