As I wrote approximately a couple of weeks ago,American is in the process of reconfiguring their former US Airways A319s.
The infamous news with the reconfiguration is that the first lesson seat count on the plane is being reduced from 12 to eight. The good news is that American is adding Main Cabin Extra on these planes, which is at least a consolation prize in the event your upgrade doesn't clear.final night I flew from Toronto to Los Angeles on a former US Airways A319, or I noticed something unusual from the moment I booked. At the time of booking the flight showed as being "J0," meaning no business lesson seats were available for purchase (these are standard domestic first lesson seats, but on international flights they're marketed as business lesson).
But what's outlandish is that the flight had four empty seats on the business lesson seatmap. Sure, or it could possess just been that some people didn't assign seats in business lesson. But then I noticed a consistent sample,where all the flights operated by former US Airways A319s had at least four fewer seats for sale than seats available on the seatmap.
