Another first for Aircraft Interiors International: We were the first to try out Jamco’s business class seat, a simple and high-quality design that combines comfort with light weight. For more details, see p90 of our June 2016 issue.
-
- Jamco collaborated with Satoshi Wada to create this business class seat design, which is quite different to its Journey and DoveTail products
-
- The seat is an in-line design, suitable for a 2-3-2 or 2-2-2 LOPA on wide-body aircraft
-
- Middle passengers don’t suffer, as they have direct aisle access, and a couple of extras, including a wider seat (26.4in vs 25.6in) and a larger IFE display (28in vs 24in)
-
- With the dividers down, the seats are social spaces
-
- Many of the styling features and finishes are common across Jamco’s ‘Space X’ range, including Lavatory X, Galley X, and the new first class suite
-
- The bed is 74.9in-long and 25.6in-wide (26.4in for the middle seats). Elegant fretwork features in the concept, which provides privacy without blocking too much light
-
- Deploy the large table and guests can enjoy comfortable dining (including a companion dining option), or a large work area
-
- Control options for the electronic systems include touchscreen devices
-
- There is room to stow a large carry-on under the ottoman
-
- The bezel around the 24in IFE display (28in for middle seats) adds to the high-end residential feel
-
- Passengers can connect their own devices to the suite to make the experience their own
-
- While the seats look luxurious and high-tech, Jamco intends for the design to weigh and cost 20% less that rival models, through the use of manual actuation systems and lightweight materials
