Confusing FAA Media Release
According to the FAA, they are proposing a $380,000 fine against Frontier because they
and failed to replace the existing placards with placards showing the new configuration, as required.

My confusion? A318s and A319s are single-aisle aircraft, so how can they be reconfigured to allow dual aisle access to the emergency exits.

Does this make sense to anyone?
