Wizz Air’s aeroplanes come equipped with brand-new high-tech ultralight seats – PHOTOS

Change language:

Wizz Air, the Hungarian ultra-low-cost airline, has just launched their first Airbus A321neo aeroplane with a deck of brand-new high-tech seats from the German Recaro company.

Previous choice

Back in 2018, during the Aircraft Interiors Expo, the Hungarian airline Wizz Air has announced their new seats. In 2019, the Italian Geven company would supply the airline with seats for their 110 new Airbus A321neo aeroplanes.

At that time, Wizz Air purchased the Essenza model, which cost the company around € 44 million, says Airportal.

The Italian seats provide more leg space, and they are also beneficial for the environment on a larger scale. Since these seats are lighter than the previous seating Wizz Air has used, the company could mitigate fuel consumption. Moreover, they can lower greenhouse gas emissions while also being more economical due to saving money on fuel.

Current upgrade

But Wizz Air has recently made a further improvement considering their seating option. The airline has struck a deal with another seating company. However, this time, it is a German company called Recaro.

  1. Rather than in useless high-tech stuff, wizzair should invest on customer care. Same as Budapest airport, which in spite of logistic improvements remains a place where mostly rude staff is on duty and crap food and shops are available.
    Real quality is not in the unnecessary but in the basics. Who cares about high tech seat if check-in people are often rude, security control people are often very rude, food choice is mostly McDonalds standard and shops are so unattractive?
