Finnair Debuts New Business Class Product

Finnair has taken delivery of its fifth Airbus A330-300 aircraft this week. The jet, registered OH-LTR, is fitted with the airline’s new Business Class product featuring shell seats and a new layout that allows Finnair to increase seat capacity, yet offer passengers greater privacy.

 

45 of the Contour Vantage seats are now available on each flight, with 90% providing direct aisle access. For the first time on Finnair, each seat reclines into a full-flat bed and offers greater storage space for carry-on luggage and clothing, in addition to amenities found on the existing Recaro angled lie-flat seats fitted to its first 4 A330s and A340 fleet. The airline has also set aside a third of the seats as single units without another seat beside it, which is expected to be popular with business travellers.

 

Finnair will be progressively introducing the new product to the rest of its long-haul fleet. The airline’s 2-class A330s are fitted with 42/45 Business Class and 229 Economy Class seats and currently fly on the airline’s long-haul routes from Helsinki to Delhi, Nagoya, New York and Seoul.
