SIA's new-look cabins take to the skies

SIA's new-look cabins take to the skies

It is third airline in last three months to debut overhauled cabin products



SIA's overhauled cabins include a new inflight entertainment touchscreen monitor in economy class; more storage space in the seats in business class; and first-class seats that can be turned into longer beds than before (above). The new cabins debut on the new Boeing 777-300ER aircraft today to London, on flight SQ318. The improvements will also be included on the airline's new Airbus 350 jets, which will start joining the fleet in 2015. 

Singapore Airlines will put its latest cabin products in the air today, becoming the third airline in the last three months to do so as competition in the sector intensifies.

Passengers flying on SQ318 to London this afternoon will enjoy wider, cushier seats, and more personal and storage space in first, business and economy cabins.

The new-look cabins are also decked with the latest inflight entertainment system featuring wider LCD screens and touchscreen handsets across all classes.

Economy-class passengers can browse through more than 1,000 entertainment options by scrolling through touchscreen monitors.
