How this map was built

China Southern A321neo 200-seat configuration, csair fleet/config code 32R. PER-CABIN COUNTS AND DIMENSIONS ARE PUBLISHED/PRIMARY: China Southern's official cabin-layout page for A321(32R) (csair.com, retrieved via the Wayback 2024-05-28 snapshot) lists 12 Business (pitch 42/53/54", 21" width, 6–10" recline) / 24 Premium Economy (33"/18.36"/5") / 164 Economy (29/30/38/42" / 18.36" / 4–5"), total 200. NOTE: China Southern markets the Premium Economy (W) cabin as 'Economy Class' on international routes; modelled here as premium_economy by canonical tier, consistent with cz-789-276. NEO vs CEO: the Wikipedia China Southern fleet table (neutral backbone) lists the A321neo with exactly TWO configs — 4J/24W/167Y=195 (cz-321n-195) and this 12J/24W/164Y=200 — both matching csair pages labelled plainly 'A321' with an 18.36" economy seat, distinct from the ceo pages labelled 'A321-200'. THE ASSIGNMENT HINT (1 config) IS SUPERSEDED. csair also publishes an 'A321(32Y)' 208-seat page (8J/24W/176Y) present in NEITHER Wikipedia A321-200 nor A321neo rows; excluded for lack of neutral corroboration (see the excluded-config source). LAYOUT DERIVED_FROM_COUNTS: the csair seat map is a reference image only, so the row grid, doors, over-wing exit band and the two monument-tapered partial rows are structural reconstructions from the published counts + abreast layouts and the A321neo Airbus Cabin Flex geometry (data/window-grids/a321neo.json); every cabin carries derived:true. DERIVATIONS: Business 2-2 rows 1-3 (12); Premium Economy 3-3 rows 4-7 (24); Economy 3-3 rows 8-35 — a forward-right galley/closet tapers row 8 to a 4-seat bulkhead partial and the aft galley/lav bank tapers row 35 to a 4-seat partial, with 156 in the 26 full rows 9-34, reaching 164; two ACF Type III+ overwing exit pairs projected at rows 16 (forward, non-reclining) and 17 (aft, full recline) with row 15 just ahead (limited recline). Doors (1 fwd, 2 overwing, 4 aft), galleys and lavatories derived. Business recline is published as a 6–10 in range (varies by row); modelled at the 6 in base with the range in legroomNotes. windowAlignment left 'unknown' on all window seats (derived grid; A321neo has no published windowless seat — window-alignment.js reports no high-confidence structural blanks). China Southern operates 94 A321neo aircraft (Wikipedia); the per-config airframe split is not published. Exact row numbers, numbering gaps, monument positions and overwing-exit rows may differ from China Southern's actual map.
