Air NZ to add new economy class option
Air NZ has revealed it will be adding a new cabin class that will essentially fill a niche between standard economy and premium economy products. The product, known as “economy stretch,” will be introduced on the carrier’s widebody fleet next year. It will be offered on up to 42 seats depending on aircraft type. Economy stretch will be based on the same economy seat, but will have greater pitch and improved amenities such as pillows and headsets used in premium classes. The carrier will install the product on its Boeing 777-200ERs, -300ERs and 787-9s. It will be available from early 2020, and will be on all long-haul flights by late 2020. Economy stretch is a “comfort-led enhancement” to the standard economy product, offering “a step-up at a competitive price,” the airline said. <br/>
