This is a massive non issue. If anyone official is claiming this nonsense, I'd be very concerned because its some of the most obvious propaganda/chaff being popped to cover for something else.

I'd suggest you talk with the LLCP for the jet. He didn't say they were expecting any kind of delays at all. He simply said IF there were any delays the company is expecting it to be because of the interiors and they are already working out the production kinks while other carriers are ahead of us in the delivery pecking order. With that said, it's logical the interiors may be the highest chance of any hiccups for us.

What about our cabins is anywhere remotely close to unique to the level of being a production/delivery issue?
Seats and IFE, but what about either is a last minute redesigning of the wheel? Its a modern jet that's already operating. If (big if) there is an IFE issue its probably the vendor and not Canadair/Bombardier.
Unless of course we're trying to redesign the bathrooms to mine that extra crucial quarter inch of cabin room to get another row in. That I could see.
