No window at seat 8A — 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 Icelandair page publishes 160 seats for the MAX 8, 178 for the MAX 9, Saga Premium and Economy dimensions, a 21-aircraft MAX fleet, and the current type-specific tail roster.

    Direct curl returned a Cloudflare challenge; the snapshot is a rendered-text extract. The page's single diagram is the 160-seat MAX 8, so the MAX 9 row grid is not treated as published.

    Official 160-passenger 737 MAX diagram publishes four full 2-2 Saga Premium rows, twenty-four full 3-3 Economy rows numbered 5-28, over-wing exits at rows 12-13, and cabin monuments.

    The live Icelandair CDN timed out from this environment; the official SVG bytes were recovered through the Wayback raw-bytes endpoint. The diagram says 737-MAX and 160 passengers; the airline page identifies 160 as its MAX 8 configuration.

    The current fleet table publishes 16J/144Y for MAX 8, 16J/162Y for MAX 9, both 22J/161Y and 20J/164Y for 757-200, and 25J/237Y for 767-300ER.

    The table's 757 fleet count lags Icelandair's live July roster, so it is used for cabin splits only, not current airframe count.

  • Boeing Commercial AirplanesPRIMARY SOURCERetrieved Jul 17, 2026

    Boeing's July 2025 737 MAX airport-planning manual identifies the 737-8 and 737-9 variants and publishes their passenger-door and over-wing-exit geometry.

    Manufacturer engineering geometry does not establish Icelandair row numbering or cabin counts.

How this map was built

CURRENT CONFIG: Icelandair publishes 160 seats and the live roster lists 17 MAX 8s; Wikipedia supplies the 16J/144Y split. PUBLISHED MAP: Icelandair's official 160-passenger SVG enumerates four full 2-2 Saga Premium rows (1-4) and twenty-four full 3-3 Economy rows (5-28), with over-wing exits at rows 12-13 and forward/aft monuments. The airline page identifies 160 seats as the MAX 8, so the otherwise generic '737-MAX' diagram is bound to this variant. DIMENSIONS: Saga Premium 40 in pitch / 20.5 in width; Economy 31-32 in pitch / 17.2 in width. RATINGS: the diagram and cited pages publish no seat-specific advantages or drawbacks, so every seat remains baseline standard rather than adding inferred warnings. WINDOWS: the exact 737-max8 engineering grid is bound; only script-applied high-confidence structural blanks may override unknown, and the published schematic itself is not treated as window-alignment evidence.
