RECARO AIRCRAFT SEATING AND THAI AIRWAYS PARTNER ON R3 LINEFIT PROGRAM

Outfitted with a new trim and finish, the R3 showcases customized dress covers in a vibrant purple. The design reflects Thailand’s cultural richness and modern elegance through an intricate stitching pattern inspired by elements of the THAI logo, creating a subtle tufting on the backrest. To incorporate additional motifs, the beige, 6-way adjustable headrest features the debossed signature THAI logo. Seat production is currently underway at the RECARO facility in Poland, featuring an in-house, cut-to-dress team responsible for the bespoke backrest stitching.

Other features included with the R3 are the standard tray table with stand, cup holder, literature pocket, and additional amenity pocket for extra passenger comfort. To enhance convenience for passengers and crew, the patented steward step and baggage bar combination facilitate easier access to overhead bins. Each of these seating features have been established to increase comfort and functionality, ensuring a superior travel experience.

“We are honored to be part of the Thai Airways 65^th Anniversary celebrations with “THE NEW WORLDS OF TOMORROW” special launch event held in Bangkok. As a partner of Thai Airways since 2001, we are proud to support Thai Airways’ vision and continued commitment to elevate passenger experience while embracing innovation and Thai hospitality, through the introduction of the award-winning R3 seats to their A321neo fleet,” says Irene Tan, General Manager of RECARO Asia Pacific. As we approach this significant milestone, I would like to congratulate the teams on their outstanding collaboration.
