The Recaro Aircraft Seating (Recaro) SL3710 economy class seat has taken flight on Wizz Air's brand-new Airbus A321neo. A total of 146 shipsets will be delivered to the airline through 2027.
“The SL3710 is a natural fit on Wizz Air's new Airbus A321neo, since the main goal is to conserve weight and extend the life cycle of the seat without sacrificing comfort,” said Mark Hiller, CEO and Shareholder at Recaro Aircraft Seating. “The cornerstone of our partnership with Wizz Air is our ability to provide quick and effective support, which is only possible due to our global network of customer service teams.”
Weighing in at only nine kilograms, the lightweight and durable SL3710 is the ideal solution for short-haul flights and met the needs of Wizz Air, as the low-cost carrier is committed to achieving high fuel-efficiency. The seat's energy-saving design enables high-density layouts while still accommodating passengers of various heights with its pre-reclined feature. In addition, Recaro uses a unique seat building process to ensure minimal impact to the environment during production.
