Variant identity
China Southern Airlines uses this Airbus A320 page for 4J / 156Y. The seat counts below come from this airline-aircraft layout, not a generic aircraft template.
- 4J / 156Y
- 160 seats as drawn
- 4 Business, 156 Economy
Seat-map fields were independently confirmed against recorded evidence for China Southern Airlines. Seat codes, cabin assignments, row structure and cabin totals passed independent source verification. Spacing and facility placement remain schematic unless the map explicitly says otherwise. The map cannot render unless its seat-by-seat count reproduces the published totals exactly (4J + 156Y = 160 on this aircraft). Per-seat notes are rewritten into plain-language warnings for row selection.
