All of our -800s and -900s are all lifevest equipped however.
Was on an -800 from PHX to SEA last Wednesday. Was (pleasantly) surprised at the live vest demonstration!

This morning, I flew on a -700 from SEA to PHX. The FA was complaining about her flights on the -800. She said that the aisles were too narrow and there were only 2 lavs. In addition, a pax somehow managed to get yogurt all over her rear end. "Be very careful when opening the yogurt...as it may have pressurized during takeoff!!!"
