    Current official 165-seat international A320neo map: every seat identifier, Space+ blocks, exit rows, seat-level pitch/recline, narrow/fixed-armrest details, 10-inch screens and USB-A/USB-C power.

    The 29-34-inch headline range excludes the 96-99 cm exit-row popovers; granular values are encoded. The schematic does not prove real window-to-seat alignment.

    Configuration-specific published cabin counts, numbered positions, and explicitly stated seat-level products, measurements and amenities.

    Only explicit numbered DOM entries establish every printed row/letter. Static maps use repeated column labels and numbered drawn positions; they do not print every seat letter. Window alignment, manufacturer hardware and exact operating-tail assignments are not established by these diagrams. Numerical pitch applies only where the assigned seat popover publishes it. Explicit no recline is modeled as none; limited recline has no asserted numerical value.

    FY2026 annual results presentation, slide 38: fleet profile as at 30 June 2026 lists A320neo (short-haul): 6 aircraft.

    This is a dated type-level fleet profile, including grounded aircraft; it is not a live tail census or proof of current operating availability. The source does not allocate the six aircraft specifically to the 165-seat configuration.

How this map was built

Air New Zealand’s current international A320neo map is transcribed directly from the interactive HTML: 165 Economy seats in rows 1-28, with row 1 limited to DEF. The published Space+ blocks contain 36 seats (rows 3-9 ABC and rows 2-6 DEF); the 12 published exit-row seats in rows 11-12 also resolve to the extra-legroom N tier, producing 48N/117Y inside one Economy cabin. The page’s 29-34 in headline range omits the more generous exit-row values, while the detailed popovers publish 96-99 cm (38-39 in); granular values are preserved. Every seat’s 10-inch screen and USB-A/USB-C connection are published. Fixed-armrest, narrow-width, no-recline and limited-recline details are retained as notes/flags. Furniture comes from the official background diagram. The exact a320neo engineering grid is bound; no window alignment is asserted manually. AUDIT 2026-10-01: Current configuration-specific numbered map and explicit seat disclosures reviewed. Complete current tail, window and monument audit remains partial; see docs/audit-australia-new-zealand-2026-10-01/NZ.json. Historical full verification date retained. AUDIT 2026-10-01: Independent guarded review: removed numerical pitch inheritance at source-blank positions; explicit no/limited recline now selects source-specific seat types. All row/letter positions and source-bound flags preserved.

What changed

  1. Oct 3, 2026Removed unsupported relative price ranks from Space+ zones. Published product names, rows, explicit paid or conversion disclosures, seat positions, ratings, dimensions, counts, dates and all earlier history preserved. No free selection is inferred.
  2. Oct 3, 2026After actual exact-file review, corrected source-specific seat disclosures, assigned-type claims and schematic source anchors where supported; retained every numbered seat position, published exit restrictions, verification dates and earlier history. Exit Row alone no longer implies extra legroom or a positive rating in the scoped unproven configurations.
  3. Oct 3, 2026Final source review: scoped annual-results provenance to the dated A320 type fleet profile; removed unrelated 787 and 777 programme wording. No seat positions, measurements or configuration fleet allocation changed.
  4. Oct 3, 2026Narrowed restricted-recline seat type pitch metadata to its assigned source popovers and removed an unrelated power caveat; numbered positions and effective per-seat specifications unchanged.
  5. Oct 1, 2026Independent guarded review: removed numerical pitch inheritance at source-blank positions; explicit no/limited recline now selects source-specific seat types. All row/letter positions and source-bound flags preserved.
  6. Oct 1, 2026Australia/New Zealand primary audit: rechecked current official map; Removed unsourced regulatory exitType classifications; door positions retained as diagram anchors. Complete configuration verification remains partial.
