Isn’t the difference because bodies were left behind whereas now they won’t be?

Airbus is touting the 19 more seats by changing the exits and going to a 28 inch seat pitch. If you have never flown in a 28” seat pitch let me assure you that it’s a miserable experience. The 20% fuel burn improvement is per seat with the 19 additional seats the new exits make legal. With the same seating we currently use the fuel burn improvement from the CEO to the NEO is substantially less.

Sounds like Delta is getting into the Spirit?!
NK! (I mean JK.)

Are we actually going to a 28" seat pitch or is this because people are discussing Airbus numbers?

I would be shocked if we went to a 28” seat pitch. I would think the company would want to keep the seating the same as the CEO for commonality. That may not be possible with the reconfigured emergency exits.

The number I heard was 198 seats with the over wing exits. That was just a line rumor though, so who knows how accurate it is.

Our 321neos will have 194 seats, config 20/42/132.

Our is 321ceo have 192 seats, 20/29/143.

This is official via skynet central.

Can you double check the neo numbers? They don't add up correctly.

Fixed it.....

Do we have an expected delivery date for the NEO yet?
