Singapore Airlines is no stranger to redesigning its in-flight product, bringing the latest innovations in both comfort and technology to its aircraft. The airline has once again revealed the improvements it is introducing on its new fleet of Boeing 787-10s, which are intended for its regional network, essentially in Asia.<\/p>\n
New features include a luxurious Business Class seat<\/strong> converting entirely into sleeper<\/strong>. When unfolded, it measures 196 cm. This armchair also offers a direct access<\/strong> aisle seat for all business class customers. This seat format has many similarities to the one offered on its fleet of long-haul aircraft<\/strong>.<\/p>\n In addition to the seat-bed, passengers in regional business class can also choose from the following options ample storage space<\/strong>. This compartment is completed by a power supply<\/strong> and\u00a0USB ports<\/strong>. A individual reading lamp<\/strong> with an intensity modulator has also been integrated.<\/p>\n In economy class, the seat remodelling focused on folder ergonomics<\/strong> and on adjustable headrests<\/strong>. All passengers have access to personalised in-flight entertainment programmes, including a selection of over 1,000 films, television programmes, audio programmes and games on the KrisWorld<\/strong>. Another important point is that every eco<\/strong> is equipped with a electrical socket<\/strong> and USB<\/strong>. Finally, the aircraft will also be equipped with a in-flight Wi-Fi connection<\/strong> supported by Global Communication Services <\/strong>from Panasonic<\/strong>.<\/p>\n New equipment Boeing<\/strong> 787-10<\/strong> offer a configuration of 36 seats<\/strong> at business class<\/strong> and 301 seats<\/strong> at economy class<\/strong>. Unlike long-haul flights, therefore, there is no intermediate class such as \"long-haul\".\u00a0Eco Premium<\/strong>\u00a0\". This concession has not prevented Singapore Airlines' new cabin from offering its passengers a similar end-to-end service. This is particularly true for Business Class passengers, who will be guaranteed a continuity of service<\/strong>even on relatively short flights such as Osaka<\/strong> and Perth<\/strong> (\u00e0 5\/6 hours<\/strong> flights). The two cities are top destinations<\/strong> served by the aircraft in its new configuration. Some lucky passengers even have the chance to test the new aircraft and its high comfort classes on routes as short as Singapore-Bangkok<\/strong> or Singapore-Kuala Lumpur<\/strong> during the product running-in phase.<\/p>\n This operation will have cost Singapore Airlines a total of 350 million,\u00a0<\/strong>on around twenty B787-10s. The carrier has placed a firm order for 49 aircraft of this type, for delivery by 2021\/2022.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Singaporean carrier has refitted its Boeing 787-10s.
