United Airlines Fleet Boeing 737-900 Cabin Specification and Class Configuration

First class consists of 5 rows of seats that have 2-2 configuration.

The seats of the 1st row are located close to the galleys and have no floor storage during take-off and landing.

The seats 5A and 5B are considered bad seats as they are not reclining and are located close to the lavatories.

The other seats of the 5th row, i.e. the seats 5E and 5F have limited recline, proximity of the lavatories may be bothersome.

Economy Plus class includes 51 seats most of them have 3-3 configuration.

Passengers of the seats of the 7th row will feel comfortable thanks to the extra legroom.

Other passengers tend to gather in this area in order to visit lavatories.

As the tray tables are in the armrests the width of these seats is reduced a little.

The seats 8ABC have less space for passengers’ legs.

Among other disadvantages: proximity of the lavatories, lack of floor storage during take-off and landing and reduced width of the seats.

The seats 9A has misaligned window. But seats 11A, 12A and 12F have no windows.

The seats of the 15th row do not recline because of the exit row located behind.

As the seats of the 20th row are located between two exit rows, these seats have extra legroom but at the same time are less reclining or not reclining at all.

The seats 21A and 21F have extra space for passengers’ legs due to the exit row located in front.

However, these seats have short armrests that are attached to the exit doors and this may be bothersome.

The other seats of the 21st row, i.e. the seats 21BC and 21DE are considered the best seats as they have extra legroom.

Economy class has 16 seats per 6 seats in each.

All the seats of this class are standard except two last rows.

The seats of the 37th and 38th row are 1 inch narrower due to the curvature at the tails of the aircraft.

Close location of the galleys and lavatories may represent a problem.

As the seats of the last 38th row have also limited recline, these seats are considered bad seats.
