RECARO Aircraft Seating and Air India have launched a retrofit program for the airline’s Boeing 787-8 fleet. As part of the program, RECARO is equipping Air India’s B787-8 aircraft with its PL3530 seats in Premium Economy Class and CL3710 seats in Economy Class. Both seat models are customized to Air India’s requirements and offer enhanced comfort, refined ergonomics, improved recline, adjustable headrests, and integrated personal electronic device charging options.
Mark Hiller, CEO and Shareholder of RECARO Aircraft Seating and CEO of RECARO Holding commented: “Lightweight design, comfort, and ergonomics form the ‘magic triangle’ that defines every product RECARO develops and delivers. We are proud to collaborate with Air India on both premium and economy cabins. The PL3530 embodies premium comfort, while the CL3710 is all about creating a truly comfortable living space for passengers. I very much look forward to continuing our excellent partnership.”
The retrofit program covers a total of 26 aircraft. In total, nearly 6,000 RECARO seats will be installed across Air India’s B787-8 fleet.The first aircraft has already been completed as part of the B787 retrofit program. This retrofit aligns with the same RECARO seat models that are already flying on Air India’s recently delivered B787-9 aircraft.
