Avoid 14A, 14B, 14E, 14F (Seat may not fully recline — exit row behind requires clear path); 30A, 30B, 30C, 30D, 30E, 30F (Near lavatory (behind) — some queuing traffic and noise); 31A, 31B, 31C, 31D, 31E, 31F, 32A, 32B, 32C, 32D, 32E, 32F (Immediately adjacent to lavatory (behind) — expect noise, odors, and queuing traffic)
The WestJet Boeing 737 MAX 8 carries 189 passengers across Economy only. 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 15C, 15D, 16A, 16B, 16C, 16D. Another 8 seats are rated best or good. Look for 12 extra-legroom seats for the most room.
Seats rated avoid on this map are 14A, 14B, 14E, 14F, 30A, 30B. 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.
This is the all-economy layout inherited from Swoop, which fits more rows than WestJet's two-cabin MAX fit. Legroom through the standard rows is tighter as a result, which is why the extra-legroom rows at the front and over the wings are worth more here than usual.
No. Every row is the same three-by-three economy seat. The higher fares at the front buy legroom and earlier boarding, not a different seat, so the honest comparison is extra-legroom economy rather than a premium cabin.
The exit rows and the first few rows are the standouts, and they sell quickly. Failing those, a forward aisle keeps you mobile and among the first off; the rear rows sit tight against the galley and lavatories and are the weakest seats on the aircraft.
