I'm sure by refurbishment, they mean refurbishment. That means new seat covers, fixing the fascia, maybe new carpet. That type of thing.

first class won't be refurbished in all aircraft, only J-class on 74K will be refurbished.

If you look at some of the new business class cabins they are already showing some serious wear and tear in places. |

No? Even at up right just press the leg rest button and the foot rest will extend.

So when you press the LEG rest to come up and if you keep on pressing it there is an end part that will extend that acts as a FOOT rest. And if it is not long enough that means you are quite tall and can use the ottoman. So in short, (excuse the pun) for short people this setup should work fine. For tall people the ottoman will be there to support the foot. |

Wow, that looks much better. Way better colors, makes the product look newer again. The new colors + new materials will have the seats looking brand new again, which will mean they can last until 747s and A340s are retired.

Why don't they just put Cirrus seats instead, if they are putting new ones anyway (I suppose that's what refurbish means)?

I thought B-HXG said it is J?
I was wondering if they are changing the colours of J while F change too |

Refurbish means making a existing product like new again by means of major repairs, part replacement, etc.

OK...I see. Is it a lot cheaper than putting up new (Cirrus) seats?
i have read on a passage before saying that one F-class seat costs as much as a Mercedes Benz private car! Not sure about J-class though, but I guess it won't differ by a lot |
