18. Maximum Passenger Seating Capacity and associated Minimum Number of Cabin Crew
The maximum number of passengers approved for emergency evacuation is:
- 375 Basic (in Configuration A-A-I-A);
- 440 Option (in Configuration A-A-A-A).
For exit arrangements including at least one pair of Type A+ emergency exits the maximum
operational passenger seating capacity and zonal capacities approved for emergency
evacuation are:
Exit
D1-D4 D1-D2 D2-D3 D3-D4 D1-D3 D2-D4
Arrangement
* The Maximum Passenger Seating Capacity is limited to 465 due to the current limited
capacity of the certified and installed rafts.
See interior layout drawing for the maximum passenger capacities approved for each
aeroplane when delivered.
The minimum required cabin crew number established during the aircraft certification process
is 8 (2 per exit pair), irrespective of the Maximum Operational Passenger Seating Capacity
(MOPSC).
The above minimum cabin crew numbers are those demonstrated by the type certificate holder.
A lower number is acceptable in the case of specific cabin layouts if documented in an EASA
approved major design change or Supplemental Type Certificate (STC).
If the MOPSC for an aircraft with 4 pairs of Type A emergency exits exceeds 400, the minimum
required cabin crew number becomes 9.
