No window at seat 16A — 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.

How this map was built

United's standard 737-800 domestic three-cabin layout. TOTAL 166 seats and the 141-aircraft fleet count are published in United's FY2025 SEC Form 10-K (as of 2025-12-31: 141 aircraft, 130 owned / 11 leased, 166 seats each). The per-cabin split 16 United First / 48 Economy Plus / 102 Economy = 166 is from Wikipedia's United fleet table (neutral). Economy Plus is United's branded extra-legroom economy product (canonicalTier extra_legroom_economy), confirmed as a fleet-wide product by United's newsroom. The ROW GRID IS DERIVED, not a placard scan: united.com is bot-blocked/timed out and competitor seat-map sites are prohibited sources. Derivation: United First 2-2 (columns A/C/D/F) rows 1-4 = 16; forward galley/class divider occupies unnumbered rows 5-6; Economy Plus 3-3 forward block rows 7-12 = 36 plus the two overwing exit rows 20-21 = 12 (United sells overwing exit rows as Economy Plus) = 48; standard Economy 3-3 fills rows 13-19 (42) and rows 22-31 (60) = 102. Overwing exits placed at rows 20-21 and the wing spanned rows 15-22 per typical 737-800 geometry; the forward exit row (20) is modeled as non-reclining and the aft exit row (21) with full recline. Actual row numbers, exit-row placement, over-wing range and rear-monument positions may differ from the physical aircraft. All pitch/width/recline values are unpublished by United for this type and are flagged unsourced.
