  • SEC EDGAR — American Airlines Group Inc. FY2025 Form 10-KPRIMARY SOURCERetrieved Jul 14, 2026

    Mainline fleet table: Airbus A321neo — 195 seats, average age 4.8 years, 49 owned, 35 leased, 84 total, as of 2025-12-31.

    Gives total/average seats per type and fleet count only; no per-cabin split and no distinction between the two sub-configs. The 84 total reconciles with Wikipedia's 74 + 10 aircraft, and the 195 average matches the weighted mean of the 196- and 190-seat configs.

  • WikipediaINDEPENDENT SOURCERetrieved Jul 14, 2026

    American A321neo fleet split into two passenger configurations: 74 aircraft at 20 First / 35 Main Cabin Extra / 141 Main Cabin = 196, and 10 aircraft (former Alaska Airlines frames) at 20 First / 35 Main Cabin Extra / 135 Main Cabin = 190.

    Community-maintained; used for the per-cabin split and the two-config breakdown, which reconcile with the SEC 84-aircraft total and 195-seat average. The 74/10 aircraft split is Wikipedia's current in-service count (retrieved 2026-07-14); the 84 total is the 10-K figure as of 2025-12-31.

How this map was built

Numbered seat grid, MCE allocation, wing rows, exit-seat and no-window labels verified against American view-only sample AA1703 DFW–CLT on 2026-11-05, retrieved 2026-09-30. Equipment CSS NEO. Total/product counts and pitch/width checked against American fleet table. Temporary availability is not structural and does not affect bookability. Monument coordinates, recline/bed length, amenity details, fleet counts, individual window alignment beyond explicitly labelled blanks and retrofit dates remain unverified. Historical unsourced monuments and seat ratings removed when grid replaced. This proves the sampled variant, not every aircraft tail. Configuration fleet quantity is from the neutral fleet snapshot labelled as of June 2026; no exact June day or present tail roster is certified. The SEC December 31, 2025 counts apply to the aircraft type, not this variant split.

What changed

  1. Oct 1, 2026Source-supported factual/provenance corrections and explicit source limits; preserve numbered seat topology and counts.
  2. Sep 30, 2026Replace inferred row grid with observed American NEO numbered map; correct MCE/exit/no-window locations, remove unsupported monument and per-seat rating assumptions. Sample AA1703 2026-11-05.
  3. Sep 30, 2026Partial primary-source audit: replace estimated pitch/width with American published measurements; retain historical verification date and derived layout.
  4. Jul 14, 2026Initial creation of American A321neo standard ACF config (20F/35N/141Y = 196) from the AAL FY2025 10-K (84 A321neo total, 195-seat avg) + Wikipedia AA fleet table (per-cabin split and 74-aircraft sub-fleet count). Layout derived from counts and A321neo ACF door/wing geometry.
