255 seats: 23 good, 26 mixed, 6 to avoid

Rows 1–5, seats A and K (Air Canada Signature Class): window seat in Air Canada Signature Class, angled toward the window with its own aisle access: the most private seat in the cabin.
Row 12, seats A, C, H and K (Premium Economy): first row of Premium Economy: nobody reclines into you, though the bulkhead in front means no under-seat bag space.
Row 12, seats D, E and G (Premium Economy): first row of Premium Economy: nobody reclines into you, though the bulkhead in front means no under-seat bag space and the bassinet position may seat a baby here.
Row 31, seats A, B, C, H, J and K (Economy Class): exit row on Air Canada's table: extra legroom. You must be willing and able to help in an emergency, and bags go overhead for take-off and landing.

Row 29, seats D, E and G (Economy Class): next to a lavatory, with queues, noise and flushing
Row 42, seats D, E and G (Economy Class): last row of Economy Class, with lavatories or a galley behind it: recline is likely limited and there is traffic and noise.

274 seats: 4 good, 24 mixed, 19 to avoid

Row 10, seat A (Economy Class): exit row right behind the second doors, at the front of Economy.

Row 3, seat F (Business Class): next to a galley, with light and noise during service
Row 27, seat A (Economy Class): backs onto the mid-cabin toilets, so recline is likely limited and there's a queue beside you.
