icelandair has that for economy comfort. middle seat is empty, armrests are adjustable to take advantage of the empty middle seat

Notably, the conversion process from Economy to Economy Comfort includes a movable armrest so that the 17-inch seat turns into something that feels more like an 18.5-inch wide A380 seat or similar.
