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

  • SCAT AirlinesPRIMARY SOURCERetrieved Jul 20, 2026

    SCAT's current fleet page publishes 189 seats for the 737-800, 174-186 seats for the 737-8 and 213 seats for the 737-9.

    The live page was visually verified on 20 July 2026 but Cloudflare-challenged to raw curl. The snapshot is a Wayback raw-bytes capture from 7 September 2025 with the same assigned-type capacities. The page publishes capacities only, not cabin splits, seat letters, row numbers or seat maps, and it currently omits the 737-700.

  • Aviation Administration of KazakhstanPRIMARY SOURCERetrieved Jul 20, 2026

    The regulator's 18 August 2022 release identifies SCAT's 174-seat aircraft as a Boeing 737 MAX 8 with a Business Class option.

    Aircraft type, total capacity and presence of Business Class only; no row map, cabin boundary, seat letters or dimensions are published.

  • Aviation Administration of KazakhstanPRIMARY SOURCERetrieved Jul 20, 2026

    The regulator's 5 October 2022 release states that SCAT's 174-seat Boeing 737 deliveries included 12 Business Class seats.

    The 162-seat Economy count is arithmetic (174 total minus 12 Business). The release does not publish an exact row map, abreast layouts, seat letters, cabin boundary or dimensions.

  • BoeingPRIMARY SOURCERetrieved Jul 20, 2026

    Boeing's 29 April 2026 release states that SCAT currently operates nine 737-8 and five 737-9 airplanes.

    Current type-level fleet counts only; it does not divide the nine MAX 8s between the 174- and 186-seat configurations or publish seat maps.

    The September 2025 German fleet table lists 149-, 189-, both 174- and 186-seat MAX 8, and 213-seat MAX 9 configurations for SCAT.

    Neutral compilation used to corroborate the set of capacities only. It publishes no class split for the 174-seat MAX 8 and no row map, seat letters, dimensions or current MAX 8 subfleet allocation.

    The fleet matrix updated 12 July 2026 lists one current 737-700, eight 737-800s, nine 737 MAX 8s and five 737 MAX 9s for SCAT.

    Current neutral type-level fleet counts only. The live page was Cloudflare-blocked to raw retrieval; the current search-index rendering was the only accessible representation, so no snapshot is attached. It does not publish cabin splits or seat maps.

How this map was built

CAPACITY/CLASS: Kazakhstan's aviation regulator identifies a 174-seat SCAT 737 MAX 8 with Business Class and separately states that the 174-seat Boeing 737 deliveries included 12 Business seats; 162 Economy is the arithmetic remainder. SCAT's current fleet page still publishes a 174-186 capacity range for the 737-8. CURRENT FLEET: Boeing and Planespotters each report nine current 737-8/MAX 8 aircraft, but no permitted source reliably allocates those nine between the 174- and 186-seat configurations, so config.fleetCount is omitted. TOPOLOGY: three modeled conventional 2-2 Business rows plus 27 modeled full 3-3 Economy rows reconcile the cabin counts; the cabin boundary and abreast layouts are modeling assumptions, not published SCAT geometry. No permitted source located publishes a SCAT configuration-specific seat map. Every cabin and row is therefore marked derived. The continuous row numbers and Kazakh-market SeatRecon column convention (A-B-C / H-J-K in Economy; A-C / H-K in Business) are representational, not claimed SCAT seat designators. No exit rows, wing bounds, monuments, zones, dimensions, amenities, hardware, preferred seats or seat-specific drawbacks are asserted. All window-position seats remain unknown unless the repository's exact variant grid can establish a high-confidence structural blank; non-window seats are explicitly no_window_seat. CONFIG CODE: 12J162Y is a SeatRecon count-and-class discriminator, not a claimed SCAT internal code.
