Frontier Airlines orders 12 A320 Family aircraft*| Airbus Press release

From the Airbus website it states all 12 will be CEO's

Just wondering if you might be able to elaborate. Did people in the same recurrent class hear different things when he came in, or just interpret differently? How recent was that recurrent class?

I think they're caught between what makes absolute accounting sense, and what they think they need for IROPS when our northern hubs go TU during winter storms. I think it will be in somewhere in FL - and now I'm $.02 deeper into the betting pool ;-)

Edit: And for double or nothing... I think we'll know by Friday!

Recent, and I chalk it up to the rumor mill since I know the people involved in vetting the rumor.

Sounds good, thanks! Was just wishfully hoping for the rumor mill to be true...

No it appears we are actually going to put 186 on the new A320's and 230 on the 321's. Multiple articles cite it as fact now. These may be the new high-density variant of both models. The max seating on the high-density 320/321 is 189 and 240. Airbus offers added seating capacity for the A320 Family while retaining modern comfort standards*| Airbus Press release

"The new aircraft will also feature Frontier's slim-line seats, the widest economy seats in the U.S. domestic airline industry. The A320s will be fitted with 186 seats, and the A321s will be fitted with 230 seats." - See more at: FRONTIER AIRLINES ANNOUNCES ORDER FOR NEW AIRCRAFT

How many seats are on Spirits 320s? I know they have the big front seats and a couple rows of extra legroom.

The new high density seating configuration reconfigured the aft gallery and lav to jam an extra row, but the plane needs another exit door, right? At least the 321 needs an extra exit, but I don't know if the planes Frontier ordered will have that option?

Either way, I have to say I was pleasently surprised to see how much room the new slim line seats have. I think there is actually more room with the new seats than the old ones. Hopefully these new seat counts don't ruin that. If they could reconfigure the aft gallery, add an extra row and not reduce the pitch, it'd be a good deal.

There was plenty of space with the old ones. Our new seats are terrible... Have you sat in one? It's like sitting on a doggam plastic city bus seat with a cover on it.
