Customers on our Airbus A321 aircraft have access to 100 channels of DIRECTV ®, 100+ channels of SiriusXM ® radio and premium movie channel offerings from JetBlue Features ®. Our in-flight entertainment system onboard our Airbus A320 and Embraer E190 aircraft includes 36 channels of free DIRECTV ®, 100 channels of free SiriusXM ® satellite radio and premium movie channel offerings from JetBlue Features ®. We believe this multi-year restyling program will allow us to increase capacity in a capital-efficient and customer-focused way. As a result, our first Airbus A320 entered modifications for prototyping during the first quarter of 2018, coinciding with a scheduled heavy maintenance check for operational efficiency. During the fourth quarter of 2017, we made significant progress in addressing certain quality issues with our business partners. The industry has experienced design failures with the space efficient lavatory module that we have installed on certain of our A321 aircraft and were planning to install on A320 aircraft. Our reconfiguring of our Airbus A320 aircraft will result in 162 seats. Our reconfigured Airbus A320 aircraft will have new seats, larger TV screens with up to 100 channels of free DIRECTV ®, and free gate-to-gate Fly-Fi ™. As part of our cabin restyling program we expect to increase the seat density on our Airbus A320 fleet. We believe our cabin restyling program across our Airbus fleet will improve Customer experience while freeing up valuable onboard space. It is routine for our internal projections and expectations to change as the year or each quarter in the year progresses, and therefore it should be clearly understood that the internal projections, beliefs and assumptions upon which we base our expectations may change prior to the end of each quarter or year.ĭuring the second half of 2016, we introduced Airbus' new innovative galley and lavatory module on our single cabin layout Airbus A321 with 200 seats.
