Avoid 12A, 12B, 12E, 12F (Seat may not fully recline — exit row behind requires clear path); 29A, 29B, 29C, 29D, 29E, 29F (Near lavatory (behind) — some queuing traffic and noise); 30A, 30B, 30C, 30D, 30E, 30F, 31A, 31B, 31C, 31D, 31E, 31F (Immediately adjacent to lavatory (behind) — expect noise, odors, and queuing traffic)
The WestJet Boeing 737-800 carries 180 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 1C, 2A, 2F, 3A, 3F, 4A. Another 24 seats are rated best or good. Look for 18 extra-legroom seats for the most room.
Seats rated avoid on this map are 12A, 12B, 12E, 12F, 29A, 29B. 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.
Not quite. It arrived in 2025, and WestJet is refitting these aircraft again with a slightly less dense economy cabin. The Premium cabin is the same across both, so the difference matters most in economy, where this version packs in a few more rows.
A wider two-by-two recliner with a long pitch, priority boarding and a better service. It is the same recliner product WestJet fits across its 737s, sized for domestic and mid-length leisure routes rather than long-haul sleep.
The over-wing exit rows have the most legroom by a clear margin. Beyond those, sit as far forward as you can: the front of economy boards and clears faster, while the last rows combine tighter legroom with galley and lavatory traffic.
