The revolution which has attracted attention around the world is the SkyCouch – also known as Cuddle Class – (above) which allows three economy seats together to recline forward into the row in front to form a bed.
The SkyCouch is being pitched as ideal for couples or families, and follows an exhaustive evaluation of 30 different economy class seating options. Pictured here, Air New Zealand Group gm, Shorthaul Airline Bruce Parton enjoying the Skycouch. new.traveldaily.com.au Taken on May. 27th, 2010 at 11:18 |

Yesterday Air New Zealand treated some lucky TRENZ attendees to a preview of the new cabin product which will feature on its upcoming 777-300ER, under development for over five years.
The carrier said the 777s would “re-invent the long-haul travel experience” with new galleys, bathrooms, food and seating – as well as access to wireless email and text messages. Business class (above) retains the herringbone format allowing every passenger aisle access, but has a new thicker mattress, full size pillows, larger personal entertainment screens and new “on-demand” cuisine – with the introduction of induction ovens allowing food to be cooked from raw rather than just being re-heated. new.traveldaily.com.au Taken on May. 27th, 2010 at 11:18 |
