It’s time for another Vintage Airline Seat Map and I’ve selected an unusual one this week. World Airways – I know… they mislabeled it World Airlines – primarily flew (and currently flies) members of the military to war zones the world over along with other contracted business.

Vintage Airline Seat Map: TWA L-1011 TriStar (Domestic)
I previously posted the international configuration of a TWA L-1011-100 TriStar and I’ve selected the airline’s domestic version for this installment of Vintage Airline Seat Maps. This L-1011 also had three classes of service, but the business class – Ambassador Class – cabin was in a 2 x 4 x 2 layout versus the more…
Vintage Airline Seat Map: United Airlines Boeing 767-200 from 1987
It’s time for another Vintage Airline Seat Map and I’ve selected a United Airlines Boeing 767-200 seen flying the skies in 1987. I have a United seating guide from 1979 that listed the planned configuration for the 767-200 as being 24 in First and 173 in coach once it was delivered in 1982, so this…

Last week I posted a pre-deregulation seat map of an American Airlines Boeing 727-100 and I thought it would be interesting to compare it against a version flying the skies eight years later for this installment of Vintage Airline Seat Maps. American pulled out one row of First Class, removed the coat compartment and bar…

The carrier had four different configurations of the -200 and this one was their highest density bird in 1987 seating 177 passengers…
Vintage Airline Seat Map: Continental Airlines DC-9-10 (1987)
In the next couple of weeks, the Continental Airlines name will retire into the history books, so I’m devoting this week’s Vintage Airline Seat Map to one of the carrier’s DC-9-10s seen flying the skies in the 1980s. Delta Air Lines took delivery of the first -10 variant in 1965 and it was designed to…

Featured below is a Northwest Airlines MD-80 seen flying around in the late 1980s and seating a total of 143 passengers – 12 in First Class and 131 in coach.

The carrier operated about 20 of this version during its peak. Seating a total of 363 passengers, First Class offered 35 seats in the then typical…
