India’s Jet Airways has deployed a brand new
state-of-the-art Airbus 330-300 aircraft on its
Delhi-Toronto-Delhi route which flies via Brussels.
The brand new Airbus 330-300 aircraft was
inducted into the fleet recently and will replace the Airbus
330-200 aircraft presently being operated on the sector.
The new
aircraft offers 259 seats in the Economy section,
with significantly more leg room and an all new Premiere cabin which will feature 34 all new air cushioned seats with
contemporary ‘Contour Vantage 2’ seat control features.
The
increased capacity of an additional 73 seats (4 in Premiere and 69
in Economy), compared to the Airbus 330-200, is a result of the
stretched fuselage of the aircraft, which, at an extra 17.7 ft,
allows the aircraft to retain comfort levels while offering guests
a significantly quieter cabin.
Sudheer Raghavan,
Chief Commercial Officer, Jet Airways, said, “We are happy to
deploy a bigger and better, state-of-the-art aircraft with
additional capacity on the popular Delhi - Brussels - Toronto
sector which has seen a steady growth in traffic, be it tourist or
business travelers. Not only have we continually strived to
transform the in-flight experience for our guests, but have also
endeavored to set industry benchmarks in comfort, safety, security
and convenience. The new aircraft offers the latest in
state-of-the-art cabin products like the new seat belts
incorporating an air bag for guest safety. All these advanced
features bear testimony to Jet Airways’ commitment to offer its
guests an enriching inflight experience, while delivering
excellence in service quality through constant product
innovation.”
The Premiere (business class) in the all new
Airbus 330-300 comes with a 180 degree lie-flat bed for maximum
comfort and more personal space for guests. The configuration of
the Premiere cabin allows guests to choose between 2 individual
seats, adjacent to each other. The all new Vantage 2 suite
controls incorporated into the new Airbus 330-300 are equipped
with Passenger Control Units (PCU) to activate various features
and help guests adjust to the most comfortable seating positions.
Pumped air lumbar support, with a massage feature further adds to
the comfort of passengers. The newly designed Premiere seats also
boast individual stowage for guests, a cocktail table area on the
side console, leather armrests, a robust table with simple
deployment and individual inflight entertainment through a 12.1”
monitor. These seats are arranged such that the foot wells for
each are under the console of the seat in front, resulting in
enhanced space between each row of seats. The Premiere seats also
feature a PC power socket and USB socket, both of which can charge various electrical items.
