Every measurement and claim on this page traces back to one of these. Last verified Jul 20, 2026.

  • RwandAirPRIMARY SOURCERetrieved Jul 20, 2026

    The live fleet page lists one A330-300, two A330-200s, six 16 Business / 138 Economy 737-800NGs, two 12 Business / 162 Economy 737-800s (9XR-WU and 9XR-WT), and two 7 Business / 60 Economy Q400s; its CRJ900 and 737-700 blocks are HTML-commented out.

    The A330 seat cells are internally misleading: the A330-300 cell collapses Premium Economy into 244 seats labeled Economy, while the A330-200 cell says 20 Business plus 244 Economy, which would exceed the independently published 244-seat total. Exact A330 cabin splits therefore come from the delivery and neutral fleet sources, not this cell.

    RwandAir's 2017 release identifies its Boeing 737-800NG as dual class with 16 Business and 138 Economy seats.

    The release establishes type and class counts but does not publish a row plan, seat letters, exits or monuments.

  • BoeingPRIMARY SOURCERetrieved Jul 17, 2026

    Boeing's 737 Next Generation aircraft-characteristics document publishes representative four-abreast premium and six-abreast Economy cabin cross-sections.

    Manufacturer geometry supports generic 2-2 and 3-3 templates only; it does not establish RwandAir row numbers, cabin boundaries, exits or amenities.

How this map was built

CURRENT CONFIG: RwandAir's live fleet page publishes 6 aircraft at 16 Business / 138 Economy, including 51-inch Business and 31-inch Economy pitch; the airline release independently confirms the cabin counts. COUNT-DERIVED GRID: 4 full 2-2 Business rows and 23 full 3-3 Economy rows reconcile exactly. Every cabin and row is derived; all row numbers, boundaries and seat letters are synthetic placeholders. Exits, monuments, wing bounds, hardware models, recline, amenities and seat-specific drawbacks are omitted. The repository's exact 737-800 engineering grid is bound, but classifier full/partial predictions remain low-confidence projections and are not written.
