Isaac 0 Report post Posted January 22, 2013 Seat pitch is the same only difference is no BFI and IFE. But this will be a different case for 9M-MLM onwards Seat pitch is different actually. On those leased 738 with the original 737NG interior, the seat pitch in Y is 29" while it is all 30" on the 738 with sky interior and AVOD. Either way it is still horribly tight!

Tom/PER 0 Report post Posted January 23, 2013 Yes they are very tight especially for Westerners and the PER flight is a decent length flight. Â That said its not the first time a -MLx registered has been here. Â What features do the upcoming -MSx aircraft have? Â I thought the plan was to have some consistency and have domestic B738's registered in the -MSx series and regional ones in the -MXx batch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peter Smith 1 Report post Posted January 23, 2013 -MSx registered will have de-rated engines for shorter haul, regional/domestic flying. Correct me if I am wrong, however they will be in a similar config to the current -MLx series Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
