Singapore Airlines (SIA) has operated its highly-anticipated new cabin products to Kathmandu on its Boeing 737-8 fleet. This elevates the customer experience on board, offering a consistent and premium travel journey across the entire Singapore Airlines network.
All of SIA s 737-8 aircraft offer 154 seats in two classes, 10 in Business Class and 144 in Economy Class, with new cabin products featuring bespoke elements that have been designed especially for the SIA customer.
The lie-flat Business Class seats have been designed by London-based Factorydesign, and manufactured for Singapore Airlines by Thompson Aero Seating.
