757-200 Domestic/Hawaii 20
737-900ER 20
757-300 24
767-300 30
The 7 iPort a/c will have 2 fewer FC seats due to an additional fwd galley.
Thanks for the info Chris. Very appreciated, even if we are harsh on some feedback
Other question... will the iport etpos 757s keep their higher ~40" pitch in F? Even though it is 'domestic' configured, the additional pitch really makes a big difference especially after flying for 12+hrs on a connection through NRT.
On a side note, I wonder if the reduction in F seats is because FCM isn't as lucrative as was initially projected? I would think that if F sell-up is doing well they wouldn't be reducing the number of seats. The only equip that is getting more is the A320, which is very meager at 12.
