You will soon be visited by "the enforcers" for using "logic" and "airline" in the same sentence! Then again, since logic would dicate they use wider seats in MCE, they were illogical. Or not.

I verified and chatted with jspira to re-verify - same seats in MCE and MC, same width. The only differentiation is the seat pitch and 3-3-3 seating. I am wondering if AA will some day upgrade the cabin to be a genuine premium economy product they can charge more for, and keep in step with the oneworld airlines that already offers such a product (BA, CX, JL and QF, anyway - and if there are more, somenoe else will quickly chime in).
