Air Dolomiti's entire Embraer 195 fleet is getting a cabin upgrade.
As the Italian AUA sister reports, the decision was made for the Essenza seat model from Geven. This brings the airline closer to the Lufthansa Group. The same company is also responsible for the economy class seats of Lufthansa, Swiss and Austrian Airlines, which are installed in the medium-haul fleets (A320 and A321).
As with the other Lufthansa subsidiaries, the colors are kept in the Air Dolomiti style. From December onwards, all E195s on the regional airline will gradually be retrofitted. The first aircraft with the new cabin is scheduled to take off in January and the renovation is to be completed in March.
"The new Essenza RJ seats are not only more comfortable, but are also the result of innovative projects. Their design has allowed us to increase the number of seats installed while maintaining the same level of passenger comfort, and they will give our cabin a more pleasant and relaxing atmosphere thanks to the colours, the materials and, above all, the high quality that is an essential feature of Air Dolomiti. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the teams who have carried out this project with determination, despite the logistical difficulties caused by the pandemic," said Marzio Caneva, Vice President of Technical Operations at Air Dolomiti.
