The overhaul involves the installation of a 180-seat cabin configuration on each of the 11 A320 aircraft destined for short-haul routes.
The Recaro Aircraft Seating BL3510 economy class seat was selected by Philippine Airlines as a part of their fleet modification strategy. The bestselling BL3510 economy class seat is a reliable product designed for short-haul flights and provides passengers with ideal ergonomic positioning for greater comfort. The seats were ordered for a retrofit of a selected number of Airbus A320 aircraft. Delivery of the spare pax seats began this month.
The overhaul involves the installation of a 180-seat cabin configuration on each of the 11 A320 aircraft that are destined for short-haul high-traffic domestic routes to be operated by the Philippine Airlines Express subsidiary. The selected A320 aircraft were originally equipped with a mixed 156-seat configuration for Asian regional flights of the mainline carrier PAL, which now deploys larger Airbus A321 aircraft with business, premium and economy class seating on said regional routes.
As a part of the deal, the Recaro customer service team is committed to providing after sales care through the entire lifecycle of the seat.
