Cabin layout
This version of the Airbus A319 was inherited by BA through the acquisition in 2012 of British Midland International and holds 144 seats across business and economy. Club Europe sits at the front, where the middle seat of each row is never sold and carries a tray console instead. Club has no fixed size: the curtain behind it is moved forward or back to match how many have booked, up to 32 seats across 8 rows, as is usual on European carriers.
