Wonder if the manufacturer has modified or retrofitted these seats.
Neither of these carriers (nor others) that chose the Super Diamond seat elected to put in air-filled seats, opting instead for foam. It's not an issue with the Super Diamond seat itself, just the seat insert AC chose to use. Also why on the A330s AC is now using foam, and I heard that the 3 789s currently on order will also use foam, but we'll see.
