No window at seat 25A — 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.

    Garuda Indonesia 2018 Annual Report printed page 117 publishes 737-800NG diagrams for 12 Business / 150 Economy and 8 Business / 162 Economy, plus the then-current 8 Business / 162 Economy 737 MAX 8 diagram; the diagrams show Garuda row ranges, doors and service areas.

    Garuda's published same-count 12J/150Y 737-800 Type 1 map supplies only the row-numbering and monument template used for the derived current MAX grid.

    Template source, not proof that PK-GDC has identical row positions; the current MAX row grid remains derived_from_counts.

    New-build PK-GDC was delivered to Garuda in 2025 and is active in current C12Y150 configuration as of the March 2026 update.

    The current per-airframe record was available through the live search index; direct raw-byte retrieval is Cloudflare-blocked, so no local snapshot is attached.

    Current-fleet table lists 45 Boeing 737-800s with 8J/153Y, 12J/150Y and 8J/168Y rows and one 12J/150Y Boeing 737 MAX 8 (PK-GDC); the same article's former-fleet table records the first MAX as returned in 2022.

    The article flags its fleet section as potentially outdated and marks the 737 fleet counts citation-needed. Its 8J/168Y 737-800 row conflicts with current per-tail Planespotters records showing Garuda's ex-REX PK-GUH/PK-GUI converted to C8Y162, so the Wikipedia 176-seat row is not modelled.

How this map was built

CURRENT RE-ENTRY MAX SUBFLEET. Planespotters records new-build PK-GDC delivered to Garuda in 2025, active in C12Y150, and current Wikipedia also lists one 12J/150Y MAX (while marking the fleet count citation-needed). This is distinct from Garuda's first MAX, PK-GDA: Garuda's 2018 Annual Report published that aircraft as 8J/162Y, and the 2024 Annual Report records it as operated in 2018 until the March 2019 grounding; it was later returned in 2022. No current PK-GDC cabin map is published. The row grid is therefore derived from the verified 12J/150Y counts using Garuda's same-count, same-length published 737-800 Type 1 convention: Business rows 6-8 and Economy rows 21-23/25-46, with over-wing rows 29-30. All cabins, rows and furniture are derived. The MAX-specific 737-max8 engineering grid is bound; exact window alignment remains unknown except any high-confidence structural blank the repository classifier may apply. Seat dimensions are unpublished and omitted.
