not sure how old they are, but why not put the 3 kids in 18DEF and you in 19D?

Yes, the seats in rows 18/19 DEF are superior to 20. More leg room and MCE extras. You should make the move for sure - whether you pick seats together or take DF in each depends on how much you want to play "unite the couple"

Does anyone know how much room the closets have in F on the Oasis A321 (non-neo)? Taking our wedding suits on a flight next month and unsure if we are fine boarding whenever or if we need to ensure we are towards the front of group 1.

There is a storage unit behind door 1L but I don’t think this module includes a coat closet. From memory, it’s a tiered storage unit into which cabin/crew equipment is stored

Ah, for some reason I thought they had a coat closet onboard. Sounds like that is no longer that case.

We're in row 1, both sides currently open. Is there a preference for better overhead space? We're carrying luggage on this time and need to be off the plane quickly, so having our bags handy will help - two small suitcases, one backpack. The last time I was in row 1, I just had a tote bag so it wasn't an issue.

You’ll want to try your best to be one of the first to board in group 1

We did it! First on, because others lined up at the sign early, and it was ignore. So we were actually first called up to board. Plenty of room regardless, the first bins on both sides were practically empty.

Helo, newly status matched Platinum here, very infrequent AA flier.

I'm looking at an A321 (not a neo), presumably Kodiak-ed. I don't want to sit in a middle seat, but I'm also not sure about the bulkhead seats with their reduced width.

My MCE options are either 8C or all of row 24 are open.

My questions are:

1. How badly is the width reduced by the tray table on these bulkhead seats?
2. Am I better off just getting a regular seat?
3. Do the Kodiak-ed A321s have a full height cabin divider between F and row 8, or is it one where it comes down from the bins, but there's floor storage?

My experience is that all a321s have the soft divider which means that row 8 has underseat storage. While its great that row 24 is open, I am not a fan of waiting 10 minutes to get off a plane. 8 for me every time.

Is 9F a no-recline seat on the Krappiak domestic A321 configuration. So far I have only flown F on the Krappiak A321. It looks like there's no 10F on reconfigured ships. I assume that as on the pre-Krappiak configuration that's because there's an aft-facing FA jumpseat at 2R.

Any intel on whether 9F reclines or not?

Specifically, row 24 used to have 2 seats on each side, and then 25 A and F had lots of leg room. That's not the case anymore. Instead of 2 seats on each side, row 24 how has 3 seats on each side like all of the other rows according to the seat map on AA.com.

After reading your post, maybe this is the Oasis version?
Do seats 24A and 24F have windows on this version or are they misaligned?

No window @ 24 on the Kodiak'd 321s (nor 27 for the NEOs,) unless you count the porthole in the door.

How is leg room in the F bulkhead on the A321neo? Currently in 1A, thinking about snagging row 4 aisle instead. Delta’s bulkhead on this plane is pretty bad

"Meh". If you want to stretch your legs, pick another seat. The seat tracks are a bit misaligned with the seats though, so I find the window seats to be better for fully stretching out under the seat in front, as the aisle seats have a post where I would normally stick one of my feet.
