Ryanair’s newest addition to the fleet increases the number of seats on board thanks to the additional pair of exit doors found on the 737-8200 MAX. The densified cabin results in a reduced general pitch of only around 28” (71cm). Still, there are many opportunities for more comfortable seating: Seats 1B and 1C at the forward exit have ample legroom but are very close to the galley and lavatory. Just behind, seat 2A has excellent legroom as there is no seat in front. The bulkhead seats 2D, 2E and 2F offer plenty of knee space. Please keep in mind that seats in the first two rows as well as the last two rows of the aircraft are narrower due to the curvature of the fuselage. Exit seats at rows 17, 18 and 28 have additional legroom while seats 29A and 29F offer near infinite legroom to stretch out. Keep in mind that all Ryanair exit and bulkhead seats feature the tray table in the armrest.The following seats have missing or misaligned windows: 12A, 14A, 14F, 29A and 29F. All Ryanair seats are in a pre-reclined state and do not recline any further. The seats do not have any power outlets nor is there WiFi on board.

Landed safely

Fixed arm rests. In between two windows. No ability to lean into the window area. Most uncomfortable flight I have taken.

Extra leg room.

the seat is considerably narrower than the other seats around it. Incredibly uncomfortable as the arm rest is rigid and there is no space for 'spreading' a little to try and mitigate the effects of having such a tiny seat.

Greatly sealed engine noise, acceptable ambient noise level

Tight seating, feels less comfortable than Ryanair's 737-800s

Located near the emergency exit, the seats are extremely spacious, and the pilots are highly skilled.

It is recommended to add small tables, as there are no small tables at the emergency exits.

Seating is very tight on this one so I always book an exit row seat. Crew and service was fine.

Ryanair swaps aircraft types frequently so I recommend row 17 which is an exit row on both the 737-800 and Max 8.
