243 seats: 21 good, 18 mixed, 11 to avoid

Row 1, seats A and C (UpFront Plus): upFront Plus front row: extra legroom, the middle seat kept empty and nobody reclining into you, though the forward lavatory is just ahead on this side. Frontier offers no seatbelt extensions in row 1 and doesn't seat infants there.
Row 1, seats D and F (UpFront Plus): upFront Plus front row: extra legroom, the middle seat kept empty and nobody reclining into you; the block ahead on this side is likely the galley. Frontier offers no seatbelt extensions in row 1 and doesn't seat infants there.
Row 2, seats A, C, D and F (UpFront Plus): upFront Plus: extra legroom near the front, and Frontier guarantees the middle seat beside you stays empty.
Row 3, seats A, C, D and F (Economy): premium row right behind UpFront Plus: extra legroom close to the front, without the UpFront Plus price.

Row 17, seats A, B, C, D, E and F (Economy): row in front of the overwing exits: recline is likely limited (Frontier's map doesn't say), with no exit-row legroom of its own.
Row 28, seats A, B, C, D and E (Economy): row in front of the mid-cabin exit door: recline is likely limited (Frontier's map doesn't say).

189 seats: 49 good, 14 mixed, 15 to avoid

Rows 2–4, seats A, C, D and F (First Class): first Class recliner with 39-inch pitch (Hawaiian's figure), away from the front galley and lavatory.
Row 11, seats A, C, G and J (Premium Class): premium Class front row behind First Class: 35-inch pitch, nobody in front, though bags go overhead.
Rows 12 and 14, seats A, C, G and J (Premium Class): premium Class window or aisle seat with 35-inch pitch, near the front for a quick exit.
Rows 12, 14 and 34–35, seats B and H (Premium Class): premium Class: more pitch than the Main Cabin

Row 15, seats A, B, C, G, H and J (Main Cabin): main Cabin row between Premium Class rows, in front of the exit row: recline is likely limited (Hawaiian's drawing doesn't say) and there is no extra legroom.
Row 27, seats A, B, C, G, H and J (Main Cabin): last row of the forward Main Cabin, against the lavatories Hawaiian draws on both sides behind it: recline is likely limited and the queue forms by your seat.
Row 45, seats G, H and J (Main Cabin): last row on the right, against the rear lavatory Hawaiian draws behind it: recline is likely limited and the queue forms by your seat.
