Etihad has reverse herringbone on their A321LR which would be another exception, no?
Is ITA the only airline to have reverse herringbone seats on a narrow body plane? Granted, it is on their A320neo, but still…
@ A380 -- Initially I made this list just about A321XLRs, but that is worth a mention, so I updated the post to add that. Thanks!
It would be nice to see some more connectivity from North America to Northeast Brazil. There used to be consistent flights on AA from Miami to Fortaleza, Recife, and Salvador with their 757-200s - those flights are gone and nothing has stepped into the gap. Its frustrating to have to connect multiple times via Sao Paulo to get to these large population centers
Could be time for an article about the "magic triangle" and the struggle to put reverse herringbone biz on narrowbodies.
Beautiful. Please, more lie-flat on narrow-bodies, with LATAM, with all airlines. XLR is perfect for longer flights within the Americas.
The Brazilian government signed a deal with the Irish government for bilateral flights so I expect DUB with its high Brazilian diaspora to be on the list but GRU is too far for even the XLR.
It would be nice to see ANY additional connectivity on LATAM between North and South America. LATAM only has a few routes to North America. There's more to North America than MIA and LAX.
Hm, while the greater BR market is severely underserved, LA in GRU actually have expanded their North America network from GRU pretty nicely. Going to be almost 3x daily MIA, 2x MCO, JFK, LAX and BOS in addition to daily MEX (plus additional 2x ATL and JFK on DL JV).
