Aviointeriors is expanding its product line with Adagio (from the Italian ad agio, meaning ‘at ease’), a high-density business class seat co-designed with Tangerine and optimized for an eight-abreast LOPA
-
- The surface areas vary between seats, but have been designed to create a broadly similar passenger offer
-
- On a B787 – the narrowest twin-aisle aircraft – the seat would be fitted in a staggered 2-4-2 configuration
-
- The angled IFE screen position gives passengers freedom to move around once they enter their seat space, and when the passenger is seated the angle of the bevel provides an optimum viewing distance for the screen
-
- The overall seat construction has been designed to enable rapid customization of the design language
-
- According to Ermanno De Vecchi, CEO of Aviointeriors, the next step is to have Adagio available for installation on aircraft by April 2018
-
- On wider-bodied jets, the increased aisle access would givesufficient extra space room to add additional features such as sliding doors that can turn Adagio into a mini-suite
-
- A 16in-wide footwell affords comfort to taller passengers
-
- The outboard window and inboard center seats provide the airline with the option of an extended bed length
-
- There is also a slide-out single-leaf meal table, which is generously sized and robust, it can be readily accessed by cabin crew from an aisle-side position for deployment
-
- Stowage options give opportunities for customization
