“Smart Cabin Reconfiguration” is honored with a highly coveted award
SCHWAEBISCH HALL, Germany. The “Smart Cabin Reconfiguration” concept, a collaborative research effort between Airbus, THK and Recaro Aircraft Seating, was given the Crystal Cabin Award 2017 in the “Passenger Comfort Hardware” category at the AIX in Hamburg. The innovation from Recaro is called Flex Seat. With a simple sliding seat concept, seat pitch can be increased for passengers when flights are not fully occupied. To this end, the proven and award-winning SL3510 economy class seat for short- and medium-haul flights is simply folded up, and the front seat rows are then pulled apart like an accordion to increase the seat pitching. This results in significantly more space for passengers.
