This seat was ready well before Covid and even if it was tweaked and updated a bit along the way, with certification and all one can't make drastic changes. Now passengers may be able to enjoy the product on a few select aircraft by the 2nd half of 2026 with all planes done by 2030, 8-10 years after this product was supposed to be rolled out and installed. Not great honestly.
"We are monitoring" is ingrained in Singapore politics and businesses unfortunately; Too little, too late and too afraid of making decisions early.
