Recaro Aircraft Seating’s CL6720 business class seat took flight on board Iberia’s A350 in January, with Iberia being the launch customer for the new seat.
The CL6720 seats feature sliding doors for extra privacy and lots of living space with a 79-inch-long full-flat bed. The seating is configured in a honeymoon layout with electronic full-length privacy dividers for the centre seats and direct aisle access. The design projects the seat number on the cabin floor for added convenience and the seats are outfitted in signature Iberia colours.
31 CL6720 seats were outfitted in the A350 business class cabin and the aircraft’s premium economy and economy cabins are also equipped with Recaro seats, the PL3530 and the CL3710, respectively.
In addition, Recaro says the front row monuments for the Iberia business class cabin were developed and produced in-house by Recaro.
“The CL6720 on Iberia’s A350 will take the business class experience to the next level, thanks to the seat’s comfort amenities and generous living space,” said Dr. Mark Hiller, CEO of Recaro Aircraft Seating and Recaro Holding.
“Our partnership with Iberia has created a unique product that will serve passengers for many years to come while keeping carbon emissions and maintenance costs low.”
“Recaro has been a perfect partner in elevating our customers´ travel experience with greater privacy, comfort, warmth, and more space for personal items. A significant improvement in our on-board that our customers are already valuing very positively,” said Javier Sánchez-Prieto, CEO of Iberia.
