’s China Airlines to retrofit the airline’s A350 cabins with a new layout
and state-of-the-art amenities.
Under this agreement, Airbus Services will oversee the installation of China

the industry and we are excited to support China Airlines to elevate this to
yet another level," said Cristina Aguilar, Senior Vice President Customer
Services.

Hamburg, 28 May 2024 – Airbus has reached an agreement with Thai Airways
International Public Company Limited (THAI) to retrofit its fleet of 20
A320ceo aircraft with reclining business class seats, marking the Airbus’
first-ever cabin retrofit for a single-aisle fleet in the Asia-Pacific
region.
This initiative aligns with THAI's commitment to enhance passenger comfort
and experience, following the integration of its former subsidiary, Thai
Smile Airways, into the parent company beginning of this year.
Under this agreement, Airbus Services will oversee the installation of 12
business class seats on each A320ceo. Featuring a backrest that reclines up
to eight inches, these seats will offer passengers a relaxed sitting
position. The retrofitting project is slated to commence by the end of the
year.
Upon completion, the A320s will transition to a two-class configuration,
comprising 12 business class and 144 economy seats, delivering an enhanced
travel experience across all cabin classes. This transformation marks a
change from the previous all-economy class configuration, which accommodated
between 168 to 174 passengers.
As of April 2024, THAI operates a modern, yet diverse Airbus fleet consisting
of 20 A320s, three A330-300s, and 20 A350-900s.
Mr. Chai Eamsiri, THAI Chief Executive Officer, said, “The acquisition of 20
A320 aircraft from THAI Smile Airways has benefited THAI’s route network, as
well as strengthened fleet efficiency and enhanced our competitiveness in the
market. The fleet will serve THAI’s domestic and regional operations aiming
to provide customers with seamless and convenient flight connectivity. In
addition, the retrofit of reclining business seats in the aircraft will offer
passengers with more comfort while their travel experiences will be elevated
and enhanced throughout their flight journey.”
Cristina Aguilar, Senior Vice President Customer Services added, "We are
thrilled to embark on this cabin retrofit project with Thai Airways. This
agreement underscores our commitment to enhancing passenger comfort and
delivering exceptional travel experiences. We look forward to seeing these
upgraded A320ceo aircraft take to the skies, offering passengers unparalleled
comfort with the new reclining business class seats."

1. 華航的部分先前已有公告.
不過這大概也間接揭露了華航要改裝各級客艙其廠牌/型號了.
新版商務艙應該不想跟在星宇的後面了(note: 不是刻意提星宇, 而是華航/星宇
A350 商務艙座椅系出同門)
2. 若以後華航/長榮/星宇 各家採用不同的客艙產品,這樣對消費者來說,也是很好.
希望可逐漸發展出不同的風格供旅客比較選擇.
再來看長榮77W 改裝案是否有更多訊息揭露.
3, 華航今日也公告了744F*2 售予韓亞航空
4. 泰航是指20架A320ceo 部分.

找幾個胖子去試坐,才會知道現在商務艙的問題. 星語的350商務艙坐起來就是不會起疹子.

好事啊 我記得k董跟媒體說過 華航的359是剛推出時期的359 這幾年空巴很多設備進行升級 這次華航把359也拿去改艙 未來大家就平起平坐
作者: chenyei (documentarian)   2024-05-29 18:21:00
華航350豪經艙很悲劇,腳靠升起來之後,腳會被夾在前座下面,希望改艙可以換掉現款椅子
作者: nuc1earsub   2024-05-29 18:42:00
改艙通常是商務改更寬敞,經濟改更狹窄
作者: AlainDion (余の顔見忘れたか!)   2024-05-29 18:44:00
BR改77W、CI改359,果然還是有壓力齁
作者: tony0526   2024-05-29 18:54:00
長榮還有要改789
作者: vhygdih (ATJ)   2024-05-29 19:00:00
星宇航空在三年內幾乎可以達到華航3分之2的規模,華航在過去10年基本上都被長榮壓著打,長途載客率5到10 %的差距,自己身邊朋友出國願意花錢的幾乎都首選長榮,出差就比較沒得選,更不用說華航的獲利能力只有周邊國家不到一半,這已經是虎航賺到翻的情況下,但是國家航空又不能倒,台灣國家的,大小跟人口不可能容納三家長途傳統航空的,世界上根本沒有這種成功例子,就等著看誰會變區域航空或廉航

CI改艙要額外考慮正副總統出訪需求吧?
作者: franceleo (法蘭司是會忘記這個人)   2024-05-29 19:10:00
星宇A350 商務艙窗戶只有1、2個完整窗戶其他都被砍半這應該可以改善吧
作者: TsukimiyaAyu (ㄎㄎㄎㄎㄎㄎㄎㄎㄎㄎㄎ)   2024-05-29 19:11:00
台灣兩大家機隊規模又不是大型航司
作者: Jsyc241008 (溫馨肥宅)   2024-05-29 19:14:00
星宇達到華航3/2的規模..?是指營收還是什麼?
作者: iqeqicq (南無警察大菩薩)   2024-05-29 19:18:00
本來想說JX的頭等艙最適合正副總統伉儷
作者: weijinsusu (伙委)   2024-05-29 19:41:00
疫情期間全世界航空就華航,長榮及韓國2間賺錢欸,況且台灣3家加起來飛機數還不多,看新聞轉機客超2019不少,餅很大就把他做更大吧
作者: oralsex (戀愛的感覺)   2024-05-29 19:50:00
3/2是1.5倍的意思欸…
作者: Jsyc241008 (溫馨肥宅)   2024-05-29 19:56:00
對欸我打反了。真是不好意思
作者: wdnm3444 (水暗夜月)   2024-05-29 20:18:00
華航很大的原因是吃過333的虧吧 不知道跑走了多少客人
作者: iqeqicq (南無警察大菩薩)   2024-05-29 20:30:00
連BR都改艙過A333了,反觀CI
作者: pippen2002 ((EJ1547))   2024-05-29 20:34:00
商務艙座椅系出同門?我以為都是官方版自己小改而已??
作者: a860122004 (偉)   2024-05-29 20:35:00
三家應該最後就星宇走向廉航化不然資本額根本就不夠虧
作者: danielpupu20 (哇書豪啦)   2024-05-29 20:38:00
三家最後應該長榮收起來吧。
作者: weijinsusu (伙委)   2024-05-29 20:43:00
看CX 777W的改款,3個艙等改起來就JX A350的影子,沒超出太多,希望BR,CI能給耳目一新要倒有點難,除非疫情再來一次,不然頂多小賺小賠,資本市場可提款,他自己也有千億很夠玩
作者: william8403 (威威威廉)   2024-05-29 21:06:00
希望三家都好啊 最好三家自己投錢救救桃機
作者: iqeqicq (南無警察大菩薩)   2024-05-29 21:19:00
BR和JX正在吵發哥遺產,CI玩沙去別忘了CI有個好基友,陽明海運

好奇怪,好多台灣人真的好看不起自己,那麼自卑
作者: macings (Zach)   2024-05-29 23:03:00
PTT就一堆鍵盤CEO,其中又鐵道航空板最多
作者: cityport (馬路不平避震故障)   2024-05-30 01:27:00
CI跟BR根基太深..JX很難撼動只要東南亞航空業持續擺爛..台籍3家都能活得好好的都分一杯羹給CX了還能賺成這樣..沒理由不夠3家分
作者: Herodotus ( )   2024-05-30 01:47:00
因為有新血加入競爭而促使老公司去改進設備,這也是好事一件,而且也讓消費者有更多樣化的選擇。
作者: coolfish1103 (Fish)   2024-05-30 06:55:00
我看完整段感覺華航 PY 會維持 2-3-2 耶,因為最後寫的 existing layout 感覺就是只會升級不會降級。不過 Y 椅距會不會又用座椅升級變更短就不知道了...
作者: takuma (takuma)   2024-05-30 13:10:00
777-300ER 沒有要改喔
作者: choper (天痕·偽喬巴)   2024-05-30 18:14:00
華航新的租機350 PY就是2-4-2了 有夠擠 希望維持舊有2-3-2
