These aircraft, inherited by ITA Airways through the transfer of Alitalia's assets in 2020, seat up to 138 people in one cabin that a curtain splits in two, Business and Economy. Business sits at the front, where the middle seat of each row is never sold and carries a tray console instead. Business has no fixed size: the curtain behind it is moved forward or back to match how many have booked, as is usual on European carriers.
