Which rows are MCE on a a 738 where economy starts row 8 and ends row 33? According to seat guru, this is layout 2 where MCE is rows 8-10 and 16-17 (30 MCE seats over 5 rows).

Seatmap on AA.com shows MCE for rows 8-9 and 16-17 (24 MCE seats).

seatgurub is so outdated…
all AA 737-800 have be retrofitted to oasis config. Only first 2 rows are MCE (row 8 - soft bulkhead, unlimited legroom and knee room; row 9 is regular MCE seat with 33 inches of legrooom) and 2 exit rows sold as MCE (row 16 and row 17).

That's only 24 MCE seats.

Both AA site and user-maintained tracker list 30 MCEs for 738s.

Something is not adding up.

Sounds like it’s only 24 MCE not 30 with legroom in row 10 being shrunk.

24 MCE in the Kodiak version, 30 in the Oasis version (with the cramped 1st class).

Thanks Prospero for the informative website. It is a big improvement over SeatGuru.
