Key facts

Seats	232 (232Y all-economy)
Layout	3-3 (A B C D E F)
Rows	1–39
Exit rows	Over-wing exit rows 18 and 19; rear-cabin exit row 28; doors front and rear
Seats that don't exist	28A, 28F
No window	39A, 39F
Legroom (pitch) ?	other rows: 28–29 in Pitch is the distance from one seat to the same point on the seat in front. About 28–29 in is tight, 30–32 in is standard economy, 34 in or more is roomy.

Cabin sections and crash studies

No seat is reliably safest. In two small US studies (37 crashes, 1971–2007), passengers in the rear third of the cabin died less often than those further forward; on this aircraft that is rows 27–39. Results depend heavily on the type of accident, and the FAA says there is no safest seat. The most consistent finding is sitting within about five rows of an exit; rows 6–12, 34 are more than five rows from any exit.

Section	Rows	Crash-study pattern	Seats within 5 rows of an exit
Front	1–13	Higher (front and middle don't differ consistently)	36 of 78
Middle	14–26	Higher (front and middle don't differ consistently)	78 of 78
Rear	27–39	Lower in both studies	70 of 76

Which version will I get?

How each fact is corroborated

rear cabin exit row 28: seatcompare.ai, seatmaps.com, happyfares.in

Where sources disagree

seatmaps.com places seats 29A and 29F 'at an exit' as well as row 28; seatcompare.ai says 28A/28F are absent because the door sits there. Using 28A/28F absent.
Fleet counts differ: AeroLOPA 122 of ~191 A321neos; seatcompare.ai ~104-120 of 183. Using ~64%.
