New Biz Seats on Privatair BBJ´s!
Hello all,
somebody from LH told me yesterday, that Privatair will get new Aircraft and more interesting the "new" LH Business Class seats with IFE.
Can somebody confirm that or has news, when it will be available?
The LH girl said something about this summer. This will be then quite interesting,
since the product from Privatair will get a 100% quality boost.
Cheers

Today I am fresh off PNQ-FRA on the PTI 319LR and it still had the old non-IFE seats.
But ... I asked PrivatAir before and have written confirmation that starting
on the 8th of July the PNQ flight will be operated by 737-800 metal with 56 LH C-seats. The seats will feature the latest Panasonic IFE which may not be fully available during the introduction phase.
This seems to be confirmed in various other messages as well as verbal confirmation from the crew.
P.S. I can PM the full email or contact information.
P.P.S. FRA-PNQ a week ago: 20 pax, return today 15 pax. The flight was totally worth the ~400E I paid thanks to the attentive crew

There are anout 17 types of C seat assemblies with LH to cover the use in the 343/333, 346, 744. Sadly these are too heavy to use on the BBJ and A319 that Privatair uses

Hi everybody. Been lurking for a while, but whenever I could have contributed, somebody faster and/or more knowledgeable usually beat me to it. So in time-honored fashion, the newby starts out with a question:
Is anybody aware whether they will also put new seats into the aircraft they use for the flights they operate for Swiss?

Perhaps just you? (but maybe because you are always in first based on your handle). No- on the longhaul flights where LH uses the 744, I have found that business is often "waiting list", and LH oversells business quite agressively- so I don't think their cabin is excessively big. At the moment, with some companies requesting their employees not to travel or to travel in economy, there may be a bit of excess capacity- this being said, however, I have been waitlisted for 4 flights in a row in business to MEX and GRU- which leads me to believe that there is not THAT much extra capacity- now flights to America and Canada- I believe they are a different story...
