Emirates upgrades seating on Airbus A330s' First and Business class Emirates is currently refitting the First and Business class cabins on its 29-strong fleet of Airbus A330-200s to provide more leg-room for greater passenger comfort. In Business class, seat pitch increases from 47/48 inches to 55/60, depending on two- or three-class aircraft configuration, respectively. On two-class A330s, which offer Business and Economy, one row of seven Business seats will be removed. The new Business cabin will seat 27 instead of 34. First class seat pitch on the three-class A330s will be extended to an ample 71-73 inches. One entire row of six seats will be removed, lowering First class capacity from 18 to 12 seats. On these aircraft, the Business cabin's 42-seat capacity will not change. Tim Clark, President Emirates Airline, said: "We constantly look to enhance the products and services that we offer our customers. The extended leg-room in the First and Business class cabins of our A330s underlines our dedication to offering Emirates passengers a flying experience as comfortable and enjoyable as possible." |
