No window at seat 13A — Boeing routes the air-conditioning riser ducts up the left sidewall from the belly A/C packs to the ceiling distribution ducts, forward of the wing. The duct behind the sidewall panel displaces one left-side cabin window. Per Alaska fleet engineering this is standard on all 737 aircraft.

    Current corporate fleet page lists 19 operating passenger 737-800s and 29 operating 737 MAX aircraft; it publishes the 737-800 accommodation split as 16C/138Y plus one 12C/156Y aircraft and the 737 MAX 8 accommodation as 16C/144Y.

    The page names only 18 passenger 737-800 tails and four MAX tails, fewer than its fleet totals, so those lists are visibly incomplete and are not treated as complete configuration assignments. The 18-aircraft 16C/138Y count is the arithmetic remainder after the page's explicit one-aircraft 12C/156Y statement.

    Official ET-APF-family drawing visibly prints four 2-2 Cloud Nine rows 1-4 and 23 full 3-3 Economy rows 11-33, with A/C-J/L and A/B/C-J/K/L column keys, bassinet symbols, cabin divider, exits and service monuments.

    The raster is only 425x842 and is not dimensionally scaled. Its row labels and block geometry are legible when enlarged, but it does not establish seat dimensions or exact window alignment; individual limited-recline highlighting is not clear enough to encode.

How this map was built

Ethiopian's current ET-APF family page and corporate fleet table agree on 16 Cloud Nine / 138 Economy = 154 seats. Unlike the low-detail ET widebody drawings, this narrowbody raster visibly prints rows 1-4 and 11-33 plus the cabin column keys, so the passenger row grid is treated as PUBLISHED rather than derived: 4 x 4 Cloud Nine and 23 x 6 Economy. The current catalog exposes only this ET-APF 737-800 family drawing; no second same-count 154-seat geometry was found. The corporate page lists 19 operating passenger 737-800s and explicitly says one is 12C/156Y, so the 18-aircraft count here is the arithmetic remainder; its short tail list does not identify the alternate aircraft. Bassinet adjacency is encoded only where the drawing prints bassinet symbols. Exact window alignment, dimensions, limited-recline seats and seat-to-monument drawback ratings are not established and remain unknown or unflagged. The two overwing-exit schema anchors are reconciled around published row 17 using the variant-exact engineering grid.
