American Airlines has announced the addition of more premium seating on both its retrofitted Airbus A319 and A320 aircraft.
The newly-reworked aircraft will feature more premium seats, additional storage and extra beverage trays.
Entering service this summer; the fleets will feature power outlets at every seat, larger overhead bins, enhanced mood lighting, and updated trim and finish.
Earlier this year, American introduced free Wi-Fi across its narrowbody fleet, allowing AAdvantage members access to high-speed connectivity whilst in the air, including on its A319 and A320 aircraft, which will be enabled with Starlink in 2027.
American’s Chief Customer Officer Heather Garboden, said:We are excited to introduce our refreshed interiors and new premium seats on our narrowbody aircraft, offering our customers more space to stow their carry-ons and a convenient way to power their devices.
We’ve strengthened the journey from curb to cabin, and we are excited for customers to fly on these aircraft this summer and beyond.
The A319 and A320 retrofit programmes form part of American’s ongoing commitment to expand premium seating and invest in customer experience. This summer, the airline will offer more premium seats than any other across its domestic and short-haul international network.
American’s A319 fleet will increase the size of its premium class cabin to 12 seats, whilst the A320 fleet retrofits will increase the aircraft’s premium cabin seat count to 16.
