No window at seat 11A — 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.

Every measurement and claim on this page traces back to one of these. Last verified Jul 20, 2026.

  • TAROMPRIMARY SOURCERetrieved Jul 20, 2026

    TAROM's fleet page publishes two Boeing 737-800 aircraft with 189 Economy seats and says that this subfleet joined in 2017.

    TAROM's current fleet page still describes a 12-aircraft fleet and is not a reliable in-service/parked status ledger. It is used for airline-published type, subfleet and cabin-capacity facts; current tail status is corroborated separately.

    https://new-api.tarom.ro/en/despre-noi/tarom-company/fleet ↗
  • TAROMPRIMARY SOURCERetrieved Jul 20, 2026

    TAROM's current accessibility table identifies the 189-seat 737-800 subfleet as YR-BGJ/K, publishes usable row ranges through row 30, and labels rows 15-16 as emergency-exit rows.

    The accessibility table publishes emergency-row labels and usable seat-number ranges, not a complete cabin drawing. Rows and seat placement outside those explicit facts remain derived.

    https://www.tarom.ro/en/passenger-information/about-your-trip/people-with-disabilities/ ↗
  • TAROMPRIMARY SOURCERetrieved Jul 20, 2026

    TAROM defines a Standard advance-reservation seat as a regular Economy window/aisle seat and a Preferred seat as offering extra legroom or an emergency-exit location; advance reservation is generally a paid service.

    The page defines product semantics but does not publish configuration-specific seat numbers; emergency-row locations come from TAROM's accessibility table.

  • Planespotters.netINDEPENDENT SOURCERetrieved Jul 20, 2026

    The current TAROM fleet records identify YR-BGJ and YR-BGK as active Boeing 737-800s in Y189 configuration.

    The live page returned HTTP 403 to raw retrieval on 2026-07-20; the current fleet/configuration records were available through the search index, so this search-snippet source has no local snapshot. It corroborates status and registrations, not row geometry.

  • BoeingPRIMARY SOURCERetrieved Jul 20, 2026

    Boeing's 737 Next Generation airport-planning document establishes the 737-700 and 737-800 variant geometry, including the six-abreast standard passenger cross-section and variant exit arrangement.

    Generic manufacturer geometry only; it does not publish a TAROM LOPA, TAROM row numbers, cabin boundary, dimensions or window alignment.

How this map was built

CURRENT CONFIGURATION: TAROM publishes two 737-800s with 189 Economy seats; the airline accessibility table identifies the applicable registrations as YR-BGJ/K. Current neutral tracking reports both active in Y189 configuration. GRID DERIVATION: TAROM publishes no static LOPA. Six-abreast geometry plus 189 seats requires 31 full rows and one three-seat reconciliation row. Rows are numbered 1-32; partial row 1 retains A/B/C solely as a transparent front-galley renderer convention. Every cabin and row is marked derived. TAROM explicitly labels rows 15-16 as emergency-exit rows for YR-BGJ/K, and those labels are preserved. PRODUCT: rows 15-16 are modeled as TAROM Preferred extra-legroom seating, so SeatRecon's computed summary separates 12 seats as N even though TAROM calls the full cabin Economy. No pitch, width, recline, seat model, galley/lavatory placement, wing bounds or non-exit monument is asserted. The exact 737-800 engineering window grid is bound; only scripts/window-alignment.js may add high-confidence structural blanks. Code 189Y is a SeatRecon capacity key, not a claimed TAROM internal code.
