Jet2.com selects Acro Aircraft Seating for its A321 and A320neo aircraft

Jet.2.com has selected the new Series 9 Fixed Back seat from Acro Aircraft Seating, which will be installed on its 98 firm-ordered Airbus A321/A320neo aircraft.

The Acro Series 9 is the latest economy class series seating type launched by Acro Aircraft Seating. Ideal for both single- and twin-aisle aircraft, this ‘seat without compromise’ reduces operating costs for the airline. It also combines a comfortable design with extra legroom and space under the seat to create a comfortable passenger experience, even in high-density cabins.

Acro’s CEO, Neil Cairns, said: “We’re obviously delighted at this early recognition for the exceptional attributes of Series 9.”

“The Series 9 is the product of the inspired design and relentless innovation which go hand-in-hand at Acro, and our fresh thinking is firmly focused on delivering quantifiable benefits to our customers,” Cairns added.

Jet2.com was Acro’s launch customer back in 2008, and this new contract reinforces the longstanding relationship between the two companies.

Commenting on this new contract, Philip Meeson, Executive Chairman of Jet2 plc, said: “A stable supplier base with trusted partners such as Acro Aircraft Seating is key in ensuring that we offer our customers a fantastic flight or holiday experience.”

“The lightweight, durable and comfortable Acro Series 9 seating will enable us to continue differentiating ourselves from the competition whilst providing fantastic comfort, more legroom and added space under the seat too,” said Meeson.
