First spied on the firm’s stand at AIX, Thompson’s clean-sheet Vantage Nova premium class seat is back in the news as it has been ordered by an as-yet-unnamed airline. The seat is available for twin-aisle aircraft in either a herringbone or reverse herringbone configuration, and if offered from only a 40” pitch upwards means that the airline can make use of available space. The seat can be configured with pivoting monitors, wireless charging and a bi-fold table.

Ross Burns, Head of Industrial Design for Thompson Aero Seating, says: “The Vantage Nova is Thompson’s first angled twin-aisle offering, bringing together our extensive knowledge of twin-aisle products with the experience from our Vantage Solo angled seat for the single-aisle market. We have developed the Vantage Nova from the ground-up to be totally passenger-centred, coupled with an emphasis on ‘residential’ style-cues and exceedingly high comfort levels. The design team has spent many hours sculpting the surfaces to form an elegant and sophisticated silhouette.”
