CO is going to be putting their new lie-flat seats in the 752s and expect to take up no additional space.

As for the galley/closet answer, CO has a few seats that could be "recovered" in the 2R area (basically putting a row 7 DEF on the plane), but I'm not suer where the other 4 Y seats come from unless pitch is going to be less than 31" or a much smaller galley at the back of the plane, which can't be good for in-flight service.

I look forward to seeing how the layout works for AA.
