    Official MAX 8 fleet page: Turkish Airlines describes the type in its fleet and states that its passenger compartment offers USB charging ports and specially designed headrests.

    The live endpoint timed out, so the snapshot is the latest available Wayback raw-bytes capture (2025-09-15). The page is type-generic and does not publish cabin counts, row numbers, seat letters, dimensions, USB connector type or a seat map.

    Official former Boeing 737 MAX 8 specification page publishes a passenger capacity of 151.

    The snapshot is the latest available Wayback raw-bytes capture (2020-05-08). It proves the operator-published 151-seat capacity but not current fleet status, the Business/Economy split, abreast layouts, row numbering or a seat map.

    Current-fleet table (updated June 2026): Turkish Airlines mainline operates 20 Boeing 737 MAX 8s in a single listed 16 Business / 135 Economy = 151 configuration; the article also explains that AJet has operated under a separate AOC since March 2024.

    Neutral compilation used for current mainline scope, fleet count and cabin totals only. It does not publish a row map, seat letters, dimensions or the geometry of the three-seat count remainder.

    AJet received its own independent AOC in January 2024; its current fleet table lists Boeing 737 MAX 8 configurations of 8 Business / 168 Economy = 176 and 189 all-Economy.

    Neutral source used only to exclude AJet configurations from TK-mainline scope; it is not used for the generated Turkish Airlines layout.

    Current production-list search results identify active Turkish Airlines Boeing 737 MAX 8 airframes in C16Y135 configuration, independently corroborating the active mainline layout.

    Planespotters returned HTTP 403 when fetched directly. This claim is limited to current search-index result snippets retrieved on 2026-07-16, so no source snapshot is available; it corroborates current configuration scope but not row geometry.

How this map was built

Turkish Airlines' former official MAX 8 specification publishes 151 passengers; the June 2026 current-fleet table assigns the TK-mainline type 16 Business / 135 Economy = 151 across 20 aircraft, and current neutral airframe results corroborate active C16Y135 aircraft. AJet has held a separate AOC since January 2024 and currently lists distinct 176- and 189-seat MAX 8 configurations, so those aircraft are outside this TK-mainline instance. No permitted source located publishes an exact Turkish MAX 8 row map. The grid is therefore DERIVED: 4 modeled conventional 2-2 Business rows (4 x 4 = 16) at rows 1-4, followed by 22 modeled full 3-3 Economy rows (22 x 6 = 132) plus a modeled final three-seat half-row, totaling 135 Economy seats. Economy is represented at rows 5-28 with row 13 omitted solely as a corpus numbering convention; the final remainder is placed at 28D-F solely for count reconciliation and to match the parallel TK 737-800 representational convention. All row numbers, seat letters, cabin boundary, abreast layouts and partial-row placement are modeling inferences rather than Turkish-published seat assignments. The Business recliner category is inferred from the modeled conventional 2-2 narrowbody premium cabin. The aircraft.windowGridType binding uses SeatLink's variant-exact 737 MAX 8 engineering grid, but all exact window alignments remain unknown because the cabin grid is derived. The engineering classifier reports no writable high-confidence structural blank for this derived instance, so nothing is applied. Monuments, exit rows, wing limits, bassinets, preferred zones, IFE, seat dimensions, hardware models and per-tail variation are intentionally not asserted.
