That would seem like a lot of FC seats for such a small plane, unless they think they can actually sell them. Who buys FC on such relatively short routes? Would probably be sold primarily to passengers connecting to international. My money is on 2 rows of 1x2 for 6 seats.

How will service work on these aircraft? I assume there are 2 FAs -- does one do the FC service while the other does Y solo, and then the FA goes to help in the back (thereby abandoning the FC Pax)? How does UA and DL do it?
