- 38 Business, 28 Premium Economy, 214 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 (38J + 28W + 214Y = 280 on this aircraft). Per-seat notes are rewritten into plain-language warnings for row selection.
