LAA A321-200 / 321 two class A321 First / Business Seat (pre-Oasis)
My wife and I and our baby are flying AA 162 from HNL to LAX in April. I tried to book an economy award, but none are available so I ponied up the miles for first. The baby gets her own seat, she doesn't do well as a lap infant. The only rows with 3 consecutive seats (ACD or CDF) are 1 and 4. I know 1 doesn't have storage space in front (a must for baby bag), but Seatguru says that row 4 has "limited recline" since it's right in front of the class divider. How limited are we talking here? I couldn't find any info about this plane in particular. AA says the plane is A321, I believe it's the A32B.

Row 4, probably - the bulkhead in 1 isn't so pleasurable, IIRC. It's been a while since i've flown the AA 321

Here's the master thread for this aircraft:

I would probably choose Row 4 over Row 1. Even if there is limited recline, I don't think it's a huge difference.
