Announced on the first day of the Arabian Travel Market show, the order is for Z200 Economy class seats, some of which will have a ‘premium configuration’ for the front of the cabin. These seats will be custom made for the airline with custom cushion designs and the other technologies, to increase passenger comfort as the airline seeks to open medium-haul routes up to six hours in duration.
