No window at seat 46A — Boeing routes the air-conditioning riser ducts up the left sidewall from the belly A/C packs to the ceiling distribution ducts, forward of the wing. The duct behind the sidewall panel displaces one left-side cabin window. Per Alaska fleet engineering this is standard on all 737 aircraft.

    Current XiamenAir fleet table lists parent-airline cabin splits: 737-800 C8Y156/C8Y162/Y184; 737 MAX 8 C8Y166/Y184; 787-8 F4C18Y215; 787-9 C30Y257; A321neo C8Y200. Its 787-8 note describes both First and Business as 180-degree lie-flat products.

    Chinese-language page translated into English. Used only to establish which cabin-count variants are currently represented; official XiamenAir maps and product documents control layout and dimensions.

    Issuer-authored 2026 financing prospectus, pages 71-72: at 2025-03-31 the parent fleet included 118 737-800s, 22 737-8s, six 787-8s, six 787-9s, and 17 A321neos; Hebei Airlines and Jiangxi Air are listed separately.

    Chinese-language filing mirrored by Eastmoney; claim translated into English. Fleet counts are dated 2025-03-31 and establish in-service types and subsidiary separation, not the July 2026 per-configuration airframe split.

How this map was built

XiamenAir's dedicated official 737-800 chart publishes Layout A as 8J/156Y=164, including the complete row grid and pitch. The current Chinese Wikipedia fleet table independently lists this cabin split among the parent carrier's active fleet. The issuer filing confirms 737-800 operation by the parent and lists Hebei Airlines/Jiangxi Air separately; subsidiary aircraft are excluded. windowGridType uses the shared 737-800 engineering grid; window seats remain unknown unless the grid tool can apply a high-confidence structural blank.
