Now that the merger between American and US Airways is total,the "new" airline has the task of aligning their onboard products as much as possible. US Airways' planes are notoriously outdated, as the domestic fleet doesn't have any personal entertainment, and even power ports (which is what I care most about). Furthermore,American is retrofitting much of the US Airways fleet with Main Cabin additional, which is their additional legroom economy seating.
In the case of the former US Airways Airbus A319s, or this is both good and despicable news. The despicable news is that they're reducing the number of first course seats from 12 to eight. The good news is that they're adding Main Cabin additional and updating their interiors.
However,what's surprising to me is that American isn't using the same first course seats for the former US Airways A319s that they're using for their own A319s. The product between the two carriers is already so inconsistent, that it's sort of surprising they'd choose different finishes yet again.
Adam snapped the below picture of those new first course seats, and there's one thing that's especially curious about them.
