## Key facts

- Seats: 189 (189Y all-economy)
- Layout: 3-3 (A B C D E F)
- Rows: 1–32
- Exits: Over-wing exit rows 15 and 16; doors front and rear
- Seats that don't exist: 1D, 1E, 1F
- Legroom (seat pitch, approx., see sources): other rows: 29–30 in. Pitch is the distance from one seat to the same point on the seat in front. About 28–29 in is tight, 30–32 in is standard economy, 34 in or more is roomy.
- Seat safety: No seat is reliably safest. In two small US studies (37 crashes, 1971–2007), passengers in the rear third of the cabin died less often than those further forward; on this aircraft that is rows 22–32. Results depend heavily on the type of accident, and the FAA says there is no safest seat. The most consistent finding is sitting within about five rows of an exit; rows 6–9, 22–27 are more than five rows from any exit.

## Cabin sections

| Section | Rows | Crash-study pattern | Seats within 5 rows of an exit |

| Middle | 12–21 | Higher (front and middle don't differ consistently) | 60 of 60 |
| Rear | 22–32 | Lower in both studies | 30 of 66 |

Pattern basis: 2 small US studies · 37 crashes · 1971–2007 · low confidence. See https://myluckyseat.in/research/
