AA, JetBlue to Unveil Densely Packed Cabins

In 2018, American Airlines and JetBlue allegedly plan to introduce new cabins featuring smaller bathrooms and more tightly packed seating, ostensibly in order to maximize the number of flyers that can fit aboard each flight. American Airlines recently debuted seating that featured a 30-inch seat pitch, while JetBlue continues to retrofit its Airbus A320 aircraft to feature a 32-inch seat pitch, down two inches from the carrier’s customary seat pitch. No date has yet been confirmed for a full debut of JetBlue’s new design.
