Saudi Arabia's flag carrier Saudia has launched its new Premium Economy Class seat at World Travel Market (WTM) London 2026.
The new cabin offering is made by Safran and is part of the airline’s ongoing fleet modernisation and cabin refurbishment program under the ‘New Saudia Experience’ initiative.
The seat features a number of custom options and will offer guests extra space and privacy compared with existing products. The seat features a pitch of up to 43 inches, a 15.5-inch entertainment screen, an extendable calf rest, enhanced privacy and additional personal storage.
Guests are expected to experience Saudia’s new Premium Economy cabin aboard newly delivered Boeing 787 aircraft in 2027. The cabin will also be introduced across selected aircraft in its existing Airbus A330, Boeing 777, and Boeing 787 fleets as part of a phased retrofit program.
Arved von zur Muehlen, Chief Commercial Officer at Saudia, said: "As part of the ‘New Saudia Experience’, we continue to invest in our onboard products and services to deliver a more comfortable and seamless journey. World Travel Market London provides an opportunity to present these developments to our international partners and demonstrate the progress being made across our guest experience.”
Alongside the Premium Economy launch, Saudia also shows its latest Business Class offering aboard the Airbus A321XLR, which joined its fleet earlier this year.
