737 seating on Air Tran

[sleepymomof4]

Does anyone know why in row 31 there is a space between seats on one side? This happens to be our seats so I was just wondering if it were good or bad or if I should change them. Iam not concerned about being the last ones off, with all the kids we probably would be anyway.

go to www.seatguru.com and you can see the seating layout for all airlines including Air Tran.

Thank you. I guess it just looks like one less seat in the row, more isle? I'll
see tomorrow though.

They block out the middle row on the right hand side for those not selecting seats. Those seats will be filled with people when they select or are given seats at checkin. This is one irritant of mine on Airtran. You will likely have someone seated between you, though I am sure if you ask they will be willing to take the isle or window seat.

The primary reason for blocking out the middle seat is because they haven't yet determined whether that flight will be on a 717 or 737. By blocking those seats they don't have move people if they decide on a 717, which only has 2 seats on the left side.

That is what I have always thought. In all the flights I have been on though that were like this, they have always been the 737.

Just now read this after returning from this flight. There actually is no seat, it is just empty space on the floor next to the window. My "lap baby" loved it!
So it was just my husband and I, and no stranger to have to put up with my wiggly little guy. The roar of the engine back there is pretty loud but then that kinda drowned out the rest of the noise. I would definately sit there again.
