Ahead of Six Flags Qiddiya City theme park set to open later this year a brand new innovative airline is set to take flight later this year Riyadh Air have this week unveiled their brand new stunning cabin interiors from their Economy, Premium Economy and Business range.
A blend of luxury and comfort these brand-new reveals look very classy indeed and instantly put them alongside other big names in the aviation industry when it comes to redefining and improving on current classes within an aeroplane configuration.
The use of colour and materials reflect Saudi heritage as there’s a plush feeling of class throughout that instantly gives me Etihad and Emirates vibes and for an airline that’s only just started, that’s quite some competition to be standing alongside!
Riyadh Air will consist of a Boeing 787 fleet and they aim to deliver a world-class experience for guests guaranteeing the utmost level of comfort and the images speak for themselves.
Ergonomic and luxurious fabrics mixed with high-end technology (just look at those 4K screens!) means a comfortable journey for all and speaking of screens, they’re 13.3″ in Ecnomy, 15.6″ in Premium Economy, 22″ in Business Class and whopping 32″ in Business Elite.
What’s Business Elite I hear you cry?
Business Elite features a double bed in the centre front seats while all seats in Business Elite and Business feature A/C power and two USB-C and one USB-A charging points.
Premium Economy guests can look forward to privacy head wings, increased seat storage, versatile and expandable side table design, refined recliner lounge comfort with calf rest and 4 USB-C charging points, while the signature theme of all cabins is a distinctive canopy twist design that evokes the elegance of traditional Arabic tents.
Economy class will have 6-way adjustable headrests and 2 USB-C charging points.
High-speed Wi-Fi will come as standard and it will be free to those who sign up to the airline’s loyalty scheme.
Business and Business Elite seats will also have acoustic technology built into the seats themselves without the need for headphones as you’ll be getting a personalised audio experience within your own seat without the audio bleeding into other passengers’ cabins, how cool is that?!
