AA Fleet: Legacy AA Airbus A319
The discussion here is about the The newer LAA Airbus A319-115(WL) with two CFMI CFM56-5B7/3 engines and Sharklets wingtip devices (the "WL" designation - renders increased fuel economy / range).
Seat configuration is 8 F, 18 MCE, 102 Y seats.
At seat power is available.
In flight entertainment is served to your device using WiFi.
All AAA319s offer ATG4 (or, some offer 2ku) WiFi.
Note: For Legacy A319-112 and A319-132s, see AA Fleet: LUS A319 CIP; F 8, 18 MCE - completed (master thd)
NOTE: Seat rows 3 - 7 are no longer used in refitted aircraft; those seated rows 4 - 7.
Link to the FlyerTalk Airbus A319 seating guide for the latest seat maps
Note: Legacy US A319s have undergone a CIP (cabin improvement program) to reconfigure to the LAA cabin configuration.

AFAIK, AA isn’t reconfiguring (nor ripping out the AVOD from) the LAA A319s. They’re already dense, so there wasn’t much point.

All of my JFK/EGE flights just got downgaged from Boeing 757-200s to Airbus A319s. Any thoughts between the 7C bulkhead seat and 14 C/D? I’m leaning towards the bulkhead, because IIRC there is a cutout for your feet if you’re on the aisle and you can quickly get on/off.

Both seats have the same amount of leg room and there aren’t any bulkhead cut outs to speak of. The bulkhead wall on the AC side doesn’t project quite as far towards the aisle as it does on the DF side but the difference is negligible

Apologies if this has been answered above but I could not find a clear answer. I am flying LGA-ORD next week on an AA A319 in F. Is there any way to determine if the configuration will have seatback entertainment screens? thanks!

You will only know until you find the tail number of the aircraft and run the tail number against the fleet list on the google AA fleet site.

I would find it less likely than not. In my experience the LAA 319s with the AVOD mostly cycle through MIA and DFW.

I haven't had any A319s with AVOD ex MIA in a long time even when I often fly MIA DTW which had A319s until recently. I assumed they all have had personal TV screens removed by now.

While their enhanced performance is necessary on CLT-EYW, I am not sure why they are being dedicated to CLT-STT/SXM/BDA as there are LUS A319s that are Overwater equipped that could also be used.
