US Airways has announced plans for its new fully-flat seating in business class. The new Envoy Suite will be fitted to the US Airways fleet of Airbus wide-bodied aircraft starting with the A330-200 this December. The remainder of the A330-200 fleet, which will be 15 in total with new deliveries, will be fitted by summer 2011, each A330-200 offering 20 Envoy Suites.
US Airways has three A330-200 aircraft, with two more due to be delivered before the end of the year. The airline says that the Envoy Suite design for the airline’s nine Airbus A330-300s is under development and installation is expected to be completed by summer 2012.
The new seats will have on-demand in-flight entertainment with a 12.1-inch adjustable touchscreen, a 110-volt universal power outlet, satellite telephone and USB port.
The seats recline fully-flat, and have a range of lengths from 77 inches (195cm) to 81.5 inches (207cm) depending on the Suite’s location in the cabin. The seat is 20.5 inches (52cm) wide and a fully adjustable, drop-down armrest provides an additional five inches when sleeping.
