Qatar Airways chooses the Recaro CL3620

Major order for Recaro economy class seats

Schwaebisch Hall/Berlin, Germany. Qatar Airways and Recaro Aircraft Seating signed a contract for the delivery of several thousand Comfort Line 3620 seats for the airline’s B787 and A350 fleets. At the travel trade show ITB Berlin from March 7 to 11, 2012, the seats are being presented to the public for the first time.

Qatar Airways places high priority on cabin interiors. “This is why we chose the Recaro CL3620 – a seat that sets new standards in ergonomics and design for long-haul flights”, says Qatar Airways CEO Akbar Al Baker. “The CL3620 proves that comfortable travel with more living space in economy class is possible.” Thanks to the seat’s lean shape based on the singlebeam concept, passengers can enjoy more legroom even with a relatively short seat pitch. The ultra-thin backrest offers outstanding comfort. Other features include flexible materials in the headrest and in the backrest as well as the latest IFE system integration.

“The contract for this new order, which was signed last year, is a continuation of the successful cooperation between our two companies”, explains Recaro Aircraft Seating CEO Axel Kahsnitz. As the launch customer, Qatar first introduced the CL3620 in their single-aisle fleet in 2009. Recaro Aircraft Seating is present with economy class products in all aircraft and business class products in nearly all single-aisle as well as some wide-body aircraft operated by Qatar Airways.
