The aircraft seating is not possible to be modeled manually & separately for each aircraft model (there 430+ of them) ... Hence the seat system is based on various calculations based on the seat size & number and aircraft cabin size.

Hopefully in the future because its not realistic at all.

Thanks!

No Airline in the World has a C Class of 5 like you see in my B737. It should be 4 or 6 but not 5.....

Each quality level of C class (HD, Standard, Premium) has certain seat width, so the system just comes up with numbers based on that.  I guess it would have been 3+2 seats in one row.

Standard is 5 10 15 etc..  Max of 80

Premium is 3 6 9 etc...    Max of 36

Luxury    is 3 6 9 etc...    Max of 24

It doesnt make sense......Or just very weird......

It probably takes into account both pitch and width.  So the luxury has relatively the same width, but with increased pitch, hence the less seats.

I don't have any problems with the seating system, I think it's perfectly accurate.

However, I do like using SeatGuru in real life before booking a ticket.   ;D

yet Boeing shows 3+2 being the Business class config for the 737. Most 2 class 737's are F/Y not C/Y hense they are 2+2 per row not the 3+2 in each business row even though for all purposes with airlines, they are "Business" class seats. The difference being the first class seats are given only business class pitch.

I speak from Exsperinse that some airlines do have low number of C class seats. Airtran only has 12 , i believe spirt and frontier have 4 on there's. While you may not think it's practical to only have 3 or 5 C class seats being pactical in this game will get you know where. If i have a route with 10 or less demand I'm going to fill it. Almost all my a/c in my last beginners world had atleast 5 or more C class seats.

Also clement, most 737 are buissnsss class, first class is more for long rang intl flights.

Hello

Honestly, what does it change ??? You have several options, and IRL you would have a couple more intermediate options.

Doesn't change much to me !

Enjoy your game

they are sold as business, but are really "First" class seats for the 737.

As a frequent flier,i can also tell you that seat guru is often rather inaccurate.

Anyhow, this horse was already beaten by you recently and I don't think the answer has changed.
