Airbus to fit 29 mini-suites in US carrier's A330neos
Airbus has sought authorisation to install ‘mini-suit’ seats on A330-900s to be delivered to a US operator, as part of a 281-seat configuration. While the operator is not identified in the filing to the US FAA, Delta Air Lines is the only US carrier with A330-900s on order. Airbus says the cabin interior proposed for the operator features a 3-class layout comprising 29 business-class, 28 premium-economy, and 224 economy seats. It states that the business-class cabin would entirely comprise mini-suites, characterised by a seat with surrounding furniture “intended to provide privacy” to the occupant. Airbus says that this would be achieved typically with a sliding door. Airbus points out that it has already installed mini-suites on its A321, A340, A350 and A380 models in Europe. <br/>
