RECARO Aircraft Seating has been selected by Finnair to retrofit an E190 cabin with RECARO R1 and R2 Economy Class seats.
“Our long-standing partnership with Finnair has aided in the development of an outstanding cabin for passengers,” said Mark Hiller, CEO of RECARO Aircraft Seating and RECARO Holding. “By leveraging innovative design and advanced ergonomic solutions, our R1 and R2 seats will ensure comfort and satisfaction for every passenger.”
This marks the second Embraer programme to have the seats installed, with a hybrid cabin layout that uses the first nine rows as Business Class, with R2 seats, and the rest of the seats as R1 to signify Economy Class.
“The renewal of our Embraer cabins speaks of our continuous drive to improve customer experience, and the seats by RECARO fit well into our design language, while also supporting our targets to reduce aircraft weight,” said Turkka Kuusisto, CEO Finnair.
The lightweight seats feature a Nordic inspired design, alongside passenger experience additions, such as a high literature pocket with integrated tablet holder.
