Royal Air Maroc Boeing 737-800 (159 seats)
159 seats: 9 good, 15 mixed, 12 to avoid
Best seats
- Row 2, seat A (Business Class): business window seat in the middle row, away from the front galleys and toilet.
- Row 8, seat C (Economy Class): first Economy row, aisle seat behind the divider.
- Row 17, seat A (Economy Class): first of the two overwing exit rows; Royal Air Maroc restricts who can sit here.
- Row 18, seats A, B, C, D and E (Economy Class): royal Air Maroc marks this as an exit seat, which it says can't be taken by certain categories of passengers
Seats to avoid
- Row 16, seat A (Economy Class): in front of the overwing exits, so recline is likely limited.
- Row 16, seats B, C, D, E and F (Economy Class): in front of an exit row, so recline is likely limited
- Row 32, seat A (Economy Class): backs onto an unlabelled block (likely a closet) by the rear toilet, so recline is likely limited.
- Row 32, seats B and C (Economy Class): backs onto a toilet, galley or wall as Royal Air Maroc draws it, so recline is likely limited
Gol Linhas Aereas Boeing 737-800 (International, 176 seats)
176 seats: 22 good, 10 mixed, 15 to avoid
Best seats
- Rows 2–5, seats A and F (Premium Economy): premium Economy with the middle seat beside you blocked, so you get the pair to yourself at the window.
- Rows 2–5, seats C and D (Premium Economy): premium Economy with the middle seat beside you blocked, so you get the pair to yourself on the aisle.
- Row 17, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): gOL+ Comfort seat behind the gap GOL draws over the wing: extra legroom, and likely an exit row, so you must be willing and able to help in an emergency and bags go overhead.
Seats to avoid
- Row 10, seat A (Economy): window seat without a window, GOL says: a wall panel where the view should be.
- Row 11, seats A and F (Economy): window seat without a window, GOL says: a wall panel where the view should be.
- Row 14, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): doesn't recline (marked on GOL's drawing), likely because an exit row is behind.
- Row 33, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): last row, backing onto the rear lavatories: recline is likely limited, and people queue beside you.
