Recaro Aircraft Seating has announced its CL3710 and CL3810 seats were selected by the Lufthansa Group to outfit its economy class cabins.
The order consists of nearly 24,000 economy class seats which will be equipped on nearly 100 Lufthansa and SWISS aircraft.
“We are looking back on 50 years of partnership with Lufthansa, and it’s a tremendous honor to still be working alongside them to optimise the passenger journey,” said Dr. Mark Hiller, CEO at Recaro Aircraft Seating and Recaro Holding.
“Our aligned goals for sustainable, comfortable seating solutions has garnered great success for both Recaro and Lufthansa, and I am confident that our CL3710 and CL3810 seats will carry on this tradition of excellence.”
Recaro says the modular design of the CL3710 minimises maintenance and keeps total cost of ownership low. The seats have six-way adjustable headrests with neck support that enhance sleeping comfort for the passenger, and the seat’s amenity flap is built to store personal smart devices for added convenience.
The CL3810 economy class seat will be retrofitted on both SWISS A330-300 and Lufthansa B747-8 aircraft. The seat has added living space and premium comfort cushions with layered foam and innovative ergonomic technology and is 15% lighter in comparison to its predecessor.
