Seats rated avoid on this map are 40A, 40B, 40K, 40L, 56A, 56B. Another 16 seats are rated avoid. These are usually the back rows near the galley and lavatories, or middle seats with no window or aisle.
Same two-cabin idea, newer aircraft. The MAX runs quieter engines and a fresher cabin, while the business section matches the airline's denser -800 fits for spacing rather than its roomiest. The seat advice carries over almost row for row.
For a longer domestic sector, a wide two-by-two seat and a small, calm cabin still beat the strongest row in economy. If you were hoping for the long-pitched front cabin of the airline's standard -800, this is the tighter version of it.
The bulkhead row behind business, the exit rows over the wing, and the forward third generally, which boards and clears fastest. The MAX is at its quietest ahead of the engines.
The final ones, which trade calm for closeness to the lavatories and galley and leave the aircraft last, and the seats directly ahead of the exits, which give up recline for the escape path.
