Singapore Airlines to Introduce New Cabin Products

Singapore Airlines to Introduce New Cabin Products
on B777-200 Aircraft


Singapore Airlines will be introducing new cabin products on its Boeing 777-200 aircraft which operate the Singapore-Auckland route (SQ281 and SQ282) and the Singapore-Christchurch route (SQ297 and SQ298). The retrofitted aircraft commence service between Singapore-Auckland from 3 July 2010, and Singapore-Christchurch from 1 August 2010.

The B777-200s will be fitted with the airline’s most recent cabin offerings to provide additional space, comfort and greater product consistency across the fleet. The refitted B777-200s will be configured with both Business Class and Economy Class seats.

Business Class will feature incline lie-flat leather seats in a modern design similar to those on Singapore Airlines’ Airbus A330-300 aircraft. The seats have a personal partition and advanced control panel that enables the customer to personalise seating preferences or select from various preset options. A six-way adjustable headrest and lumbar support will provide maximum ergonomic support for a more comfortable rest.

The Economy Class cabin will be refurbished with a new contemporary look. Seat covers, designed by Givenchy, will feature soothing colours as well as richer and softer fabrics, similar to those found on Singapore Airlines’ new Airbus A380 and B777-300ER aircraft.

Enhancements will also be made to Singapore Airlines’ award-winning KrisWorld in-flight entertainment system, for better Audio-Video On Demand features in both cabin classes, such as a more intuitive and user-friendly graphical interface. Business Class seats will feature larger 15.4-inch screens, while screens in Economy Class will be increased to 9 inches.
