What is distinctive about this configuration

  • Row numbering and seat counts identical to the 737-800 Kodiak config (the Boeing 737-800 16F / 156Y configuration); distinguish by ICAO type (B38M vs B738) and MAX-specific split-tip winglets/engines, not seat layout

Where this comes from

Every row above is researched against published cabin plans for this operator and then checked against live availability. Where a figure is not known it says so rather than being estimated, which is why some pitch cells read "not recorded" instead of carrying a number we would not defend.

Seats abreast and seat pitch are defined in the glossary, alongside cabin layout.
