Dragonair has taken the wraps off its brand new first class seat.
The Hong Kong-based airline will now offer fully flat-bed seats, which stretch out 75 inches (190.5cm) long and 27.6 inches wide when fully reclined. In the upright position, the seats are 20.2 inches wide – 0.4 inches wider than the airline’s previous first class product.
All seats have direct aisle access and side storage compartments big enough for laptops and handbags, while the side cabinet can also be fixed in the open position to double as a privacy screen.
In terms of in-flight entertainment, Dragonair has upgraded to a new on-demand system offering a selection of in-flight movies, music and TV programmes, while each seat is also equipped with a power socket and multi-port connector that includes an RCA port, iPhone connector and USB port.
Passengers also have the option of sitting with their companion, with two seats separated by a central tray table.
“With the rollout of our new first class, we can ensure that the journeys of all passengers, in all classes of travel, are even more relaxing and enjoyable. This overhaul of our in-flight offering demonstrates our commitment to offer superior products and services to our passengers, and also underlines Dragonair’s commitment to long-term expansion and development,” said the airline’s CEO, Patrick Yeung.
The move forms part of a broader upgrade of Dragonair’s cabin products, including new in-flight menus and a new range of retail items in the airline’s in-flight shopping magazine.
“At Dragonair, we look at every single detail of what we offer our passengers in order to examine how to better meet their needs. We strive to provide the best – from the quality of the seats and other product details to the food we serve in-flight. We are very excited about the latest product developments,” Yeung added.
The new first class cabins will be rolled out on Dragonair’s Airbus A330-300 aircraft.
