Which airlines fly the A319?

We've documented 13 airlines operating the A319, each with its own generated seat map below — the cabin you get depends entirely on which airline and which specific configuration they fly.

What's the economy seat pitch on the A319?

It varies by airline — from 29in to 30.5in among the operators we've measured. See the comparison table below for the exact figure per airline.

Does the cabin layout on the A319 differ by airline?

Yes, significantly. Airlines configure the same airframe with completely different seat counts, classes and pitches — this page groups every configuration we've documented by airline so you can compare the real differences rather than assume one layout fits all.

Who makes the A319, and what family is it part of?

Airbus builds the A319, part of the A320 family — a 3700mm-wide fuselage that every operator's cabin layout has to fit within.

I flew this aircraft and the layout looked different — what do I do?

Tell us. Airlines retrofit cabins constantly and different registrations of the same type can carry different cabins. Email corrections@bestplaneseats.com with the airline, flight number, date and what you actually saw.

Last verified 7 September 2026

We've documented 13 airlines flying the A319 across 17 cabin configurations, built by Airbus as part of the A320 family. Total seat count ranges from 123 to 156 depending on how densely an airline configures it. Its fuselage is 3700mm wide — the fixed physical constraint every airline's cabin layout has to work within, regardless of how they configure the inside.

Economy pitch on this type ranges from 29in to 30.5in depending on the airline — a real, measurable difference in legroom for the exact same aircraft. 3 of these airlines fly more than one cabin layout on this same aircraft type — check which one applies to your specific flight before assuming. 2 of 17 configurations here are verified directly against the operating airline's own published material.
