Aside from all discussions about the seats themselves, I’m just wondering why AA thinks they need 51 Business seats on 789 and 70 Business seats on 77W? Are they seriously confident that they are going to fill these seats?

On contrast, it’s JV partner, Japan Airlines, which provides far more consistently superior service (most of the time) than AA, has the least dense 789 and 77W fleet in the world, and their 195 seater 789 only has 44 business seats and the 236 seater 77W only has 8F 49J seats.

If AA wins anything now, it must be fitting the highest number of J seats in 77W and 789...and I can see how it can use this as the reason to say it’s a premium airline now. lol
