Interesting. I wonder if these seats are even inflatable, or has AC turned it's back on that. I presume this is only for 330's for now, but perhaps it's a chance to do a production test of a possible next gen seat for the entire lieflat fleet.

Not sure how I feel about the shoulder belt. Seems obvious it would offer more restraint on an emergency, but potentially at the cost of comfort and convince in normal usage.
