Variant identity
Aer Lingus uses this Airbus A321XLR page for 16J / 168Y. The seat counts below are taken from the validated layout, not a generic aircraft template.
- 16J / 168Y
- 184 seats as drawn
- 16 Business, 168 Economy
The seat grid and cabin totals pass FlightQ's internal coordinate and arithmetic checks; a public source link is not currently available. The map cannot render unless its seat-by-seat count reproduces the published totals exactly (16J + 168Y = 184 on this aircraft). Per-seat notes are rewritten into plain-language warnings for row selection.
