The Skylounge Core is a face-forwarding seat that offers the essence of what a Business class seat is: full flat bed, direct aisle access, with a best in class cost of ownership. Optima is Safran Seats’ most space efficient Business class seat, which offers a unique balance between passenger comfort and airlines revenue efficiency. The Z400 offers many different options for passenger comfort, such as the innovative U-dream headrest or Personal Electronic Devices holders for passengers. The Z200 is best in class regarding its weight and living space, which are keys for passengers and airlines in medium haul flights. Safran Seats have completely renewed their portfolio in the past three years, basing their products on modular platforms, enabling thus both a high level of customization and on time delivery for their customers. “Our target is to have a complete range of products that cover our customer’s needs and cabin layout strategies. Working with key partners such as Air China, China Southern, China Eastern, Hainan and so many other airlines in China leads the path to strong product innovation for better passenger experience. At Safran Seats, we care about the comfort of all passengers and the airlines benefits when designing our products.” commented Vincent Mascré, CEO of Safran Seats. Air China expressed their warm welcome to Safran Seats for organizing this seat roadshow in the current complex and difficult situation.
