The trap: two in five window seats have a compromised view
This is the most window-compromised cabin in the Scoot fleet, and it is not close. Twenty-two of the aircraft's fifty-six window seats have something wrong with the view, spread across three different problems:
| Seats | Problem |
|---|---|
| 7A, 7F, 25A, 25F, 26A, 26F | No usable window view — the glass sits well behind the seat |
| 8A, 8F, 9A, 9F, 27A, 27F | Badly misaligned — effectively no view from the seat position |
| 6A, 6F, 19A, 19F, 22A, 22F, 23A, 23F, 24A, 24F | Window set behind the seat — lean back to see out |
That changes the usual advice completely. On most aircraft the window seats are the prize. On this one, the aisle seats are safer, because they were never buying a view and they cannot be disappointed by one.
The best seats are on the aisle
Row 11 is the overwing exit row and the only row on the aircraft with extra legroom beyond the bulkhead, drawn about a quarter deeper than a standard row. It reclines normally, because there is no second exit behind it to keep clear.
11C and 11D are the seats to take. They have the exit-row space, direct aisle access, and no window to be let down by. In a 2-2 cabin an aisle seat has a single neighbour, and 11C and 11D sit across the aisle from each other, which makes them a good pair for two people who do not need to be side by side.
11A and 11F are perfectly good too, and their windows are among the ones that do line up. If you want the exit row and a view, they are the pick.
Row 10 is the one to avoid. It sits in front of the exit, so it is fixed upright, and it has standard legroom. That is the restriction with none of the compensation.
The 2-2 cabin
There is no middle seat anywhere on this aircraft. Every one of the 112 seats is either a window or an aisle, which on a four-hour sector to Hat Yai or Miri is worth more than most of what an airline can sell you. For two people travelling together it means a private pair on any row.
Note the seat letters: this cabin is A and C on the left, D and F on the right. There is no B and no E. A booking reference for seat 14B does not exist on this aircraft.
Best seats
- 11C and 11D — exit-row legroom on the aisle, with no window to lose. The best seats on the aircraft.
- 11A and 11F — the same row at the window, and among the minority on this aircraft whose glass lines up.
- Rows 12 to 18 — the quiet middle of the cabin, behind the wing, well ahead of the rear lavatory, and clear of the worst of the window problems.
- Rows 2 to 5 — the forward cabin, with aligned windows on both sides and nothing overhead but the boarding door.
- 20A and 21A, or their F-side equivalents — two of the few aft window seats with a clean view.
Seats to avoid
- 7A, 7F, 25A, 25F, 26A and 26F — window seats with no usable view at all. If you are allocated one and the flight is not full, move.
- 8A, 8F, 9A, 9F, 27A and 27F — badly misaligned glass, which in practice gives you very little.
- Row 10 — fixed upright with standard legroom, because it sits in front of the exit row.
- Row 28 — the last row. Fixed upright against the rear wall, with a lavatory behind 28C and the galley alongside.
- Row 27 — one row better, but still inside the galley zone and with misaligned windows on both sides.
- Row 1 — extra legroom, no underseat storage, and the tray table in the armrest.

Quick-pick summary
| Travelling as | Pick | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Legroom priority | 11C or 11D | Exit-row space, and an aisle seat cannot lose a view it never had |
| Window priority | 11A, 11F, or rows 2 to 5 | The stretches where the glass actually lines up |
| Couple | A and C, or D and F, in rows 12 to 18 | A 2-2 cabin means a private pair with no stranger |
| Solo, wants quiet | 14A or 15A | Behind the wing, far from the rear lavatories |
| Family of three | Rows 12 to 17, a pair plus one across the aisle | Two plus one is the only shape a 2-2 cabin allows |
| Paying nothing | Anything from row 12 to row 18 | Clear of the window problems and the lavatory queue |

Frequently asked questions
Which Scoot Embraer 190-E2 seats have no usable window?
7A, 7F, 25A, 25F, 26A and 26F have glass so far behind the seat that there is no usable view. 8A, 8F, 9A, 9F, 27A and 27F are badly misaligned and give very little. Ten more window seats are set behind their glass, which means leaning back to see out.
What is the best seat on the Scoot Embraer 190-E2?
11C or 11D. Row 11 is the overwing exit row and the only row with extra legroom outside the bulkhead, and it reclines. The aisle seats are the pick on this aircraft because so many of the window seats have a compromised view, though 11A and 11F are among the ones that do not.
Does the Embraer 190-E2 have a middle seat?
No. The cabin is 2-2 from front to back, lettered A and C on the left and D and F on the right. There is no B or E seat anywhere on the aircraft.
Why does row 10 not recline?
It sits directly in front of the overwing exit row and the escape path has to stay clear. Row 10 gets the restriction with standard legroom, because the extra space belongs to row 11.
Does the Scoot Embraer 190-E2 have WiFi?
No. No entertainment system is recorded for this aircraft either, so download something before you board.
How many lavatories are there?
Two, both at the rear. That is why rows 27 and 28 are worth avoiding: they sit inside the queue and alongside the galley, and row 28 does not recline.
