Flyers can stretch out and sleep in economy class
Seems Air New Zealand heard the sleep calls from economy class consumers and is making a change. Air New Zealand will be reconfiguring their Boeing 777 cabins to make room for lie flat seats in economy seating. These lie-flat beds make that endless flight to Australia seem a little more relaxing.
The catch: You need to buy three seats to make use of the new economy class luxury. These seat changes will make a huge difference for flyers with economy-class airline tickets. Most flights to Australia offer lie-flat seats in first and business class cabins.
The “Skycouch” is three economy seats that unfold to create a space where people can stretch out and relax, and possibly sleep. While it’s necessarily to buy three seats together in order to make this happen, the airline said the price of a third seat will be about half the price of the second seat (a deal when you consider the stranger who might by the seat instead).
How does it work? Simple engineering (and a little creativity). The leg rests on each seat rise up to fill the space between rows of seats, and a thin mattress and full size pillows are provided for comfort. Air New Zealand says about a quarter of all longhaul economy seats will convert to Skycouches, taking up the first 11 rows in the economy cabin of the airline’s new Boeing 777-300 planes.
Maybe this new initiative is a sign of things to come in the airline industry…
