AA didn't talk about replacing the bins - only the bin doors.

Rows 4 - 22 Coach CIP LUS A319 and LAA A319 8F, MCE18, Y102, by-seat power, no AVOD.Rows 1 - 2 First Class (no rows 3 - 7; aircraft substitutions can cause seating havoc!)

Rows 8 - 10 Main Cabin Extra

Rows 11 - 27 Main Cabin

LUS included three models of Airbus A319s, differentiated primarily by engines:

Newer A319-115(WL): CFMI CFM56-5B7/3 engines and Sharklets wingtip devices (the "WL" designation).
A319-112: CFMI CFM56-5B6/P
A319-132: IAE V2524-A5

-X1X - second number indicates engine option. So AA has 2 different engine options (-1- and -3-)

-XX5 - third number indicates ... the revision number...
