As
Val says, it's a TW model, not a "new" seat config. There
are no seats to add to 757s, they have been LRTC for some time... along with A300s. I've had several TW 752s in the last few months - it pays to check the aa.com record and seat maps as soon as you can after buying, and again periodically.

Hopefully I'll clear the upgrade list, but if not this is my preferred seat in coach
Now, whether that will correspond with any new covers for the seats, we'll have to wait and see. I just can't see AA spending any money on seats right now, aside from the international J seat that's been talked about before.
