Alaska Airlines Boeing 787-9 seat map

Alaska's own seat map for the Boeing 787-9 shows 300 seats: 34 First Class, 79 Premium Class and 187 Main Cabin. First Class is rows 1 to 9, 1-2-1 suites with privacy doors, every seat on an aisle; row 1 has only the two window suites. Behind it the cabin is 3-3-3 from row 14 to 48 (no rows 30 to 32). Premium Class takes all of rows 14 and 15 and exit row 33, plus the window-side sections (A to C and G to J) of rows 16 to 24, where the middle D to F seats are Main Cabin; because those rows mix both, this map counts them in the Main Cabin section and marks each Premium Class seat on them. Doors open in front of rows 14 and 33, both exit rows. Five lavatories sit in the middle of the cabin behind rows 28 and 29, and the cabin narrows at the back to pairs of seats in rows 46 and 47.

Trade-offs

  • Rows 1 and 9, seats A and J · First Class

    Set back from the aisle, so it is more private

  • Row 2, seats C and G · First Class

    Bulkhead row, so nobody reclines into you

  • Row 9, seats C and G · First Class

    Next to a galley, with light and noise during service

  • Row 14, seats B, E and H · Premium Class

    Exit row with extra legroom

  • Row 25, seats D, E and F · Main Cabin

    Middle-block row standing alone where the side sections jump from row 24 to 26: a normal Main Cabin seat.

  • Row 28, seat G · Main Cabin

    Likely: last seat in this column, against the lavatory block behind it, so recline is probably limited (Alaska's drawing does not say)

  • Row 33, seats B, C, D, E, F, G and H · Premium Class

    Exit row with extra legroom

Seats to avoid

  • Row 28, seats D, E and F · Main Cabin

    Last row of the forward Main Cabin, against the lavatories Alaska draws behind it: recline is likely limited and the lavatory queue forms beside you.

  • Row 47, seats B and C · Main Cabin

  • Row 47, seats G and H · Main Cabin

    Pair of two seats at the back, in front of the rear galley: likely limited recline and galley noise.

  • Row 48, seats D, E and F · Main Cabin

    Last row of the aircraft, against the rear galley: recline is likely limited, with galley light and noise.
