Sorry I was wrong about the number of seats in a row.  Was told that by someone who should know this.

We are definitely currently at 18 inches.

That makes the rows 612 inches.

Aisle expansion will make the rows 608 inches.

Given that, this is what happens when you make the seats wider...

[TABLE]

[TD]Seat Width[/TD]
[TD]18[/TD]
[TD]19[/TD]
[TD]19.5[/TD]
[TD]20[/TD]
[TD]20.5[/TD]
[TD]21[/TD]

[TD]31.17 (31)[/TD]
[TD]30.4 (30)[/TD]
[TD]29.7 (29)[/TD]
[TD]29.0 (29)[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD]% Reduction[/TD]
[TD]0[/TD]
[TD]5.9[/TD]
[TD]8.8[/TD]
[TD]11.8[/TD]
[TD]14.7[/TD]
[TD]14.7[/TD]
[/TR]
[/TABLE]

To get a reduction of around 10%-10.5%, it looks like you need a mix of some sections at 19.5 and some at 21 (with most at 19.5).

You can fit 29 seats with a width of 21 inches in our rows so I don't know why anyone would go with 20.5.

Not sure about the seat makeup.  All I have heard is that they are plastic.  I would assume if they were padded, we would have heard that by now.

Agree, I would have preferred no arm rests.  Maybe this is an ADA requirement.  I hope whatever we have chosen impacts the width of the seats as minimally as possible.
