Recaro Aircraft Seating has announced it will be outfitting KLM, Transavia France and Transavia Airlines’ Airbus aircraft with economy class seats.

Deliveries of the seats, BL3710 and SL3710 on the 100 A320 and A321 aircraft, begins in summer 2023.

According to Recaro, the KLM aircraft will be configured in a hybrid layout, with the BL3710 being installed at the front of the cabin and followed by the SL3710. Transavia Airlines and Transavia France will be equipped with SL3710 seats.

The seats will be customised with additional features, including a BYOD holder for KLM, and a high-power USB-C outlet into the backrest. Redesigned backrests on both the SL3710 and BL3710 will further enhance passenger comfort and reduce weight.

“Our flexible and dynamic customer team, in tandem with our aligned goals on sustainability, has resulted in a strong partnership with KLM, Transavia Airlines and Transavia France,” said Dr. Mark Hiller, CEO of Recaro Aircraft Seating and Recaro Holding. “I am confident that our seats will serve their passengers well for many years to come.”
