During its time of restructuring, today's announcement demonstrates a continuation of the airline's efforts to enhance its fleet and become more fuel efficient. American is scheduled to take delivery of 10 state-of-the-art Boeing 777-300ERs in 2012 through 2016, with London dedicated as a first market for this aircraft, and more markets to be announced. American is the first U.S. airline to order the 777-300ER and will be the first U.S. airline to take delivery of the 777-300ER. The Highlights: Arranged in a three-class cabin configuration, the new 777-300ER will provide the airline with more passenger and cargo capacity than any other aircraft in its fleet today. American will be the first carrier to use a dramatic archway and ceiling treatment on the 777-300 to create a feeling of spaciousness. A walk-up bar stocked with snacks and refreshments in the premium cabin will be a first for any U.S. airline and adds another unique element of luxury to the 777-300. Entertainment options including up to 120 movies, more than 150 TV programs and more than 350 audio selections will be offered throughout the aircraft. The First Class cabin will offer new Flagship Suite seats. Considered one of the most comfortable and popular First Class seats in the industry, the 777-300 will feature an updated and enhanced version of the customer-favorite Flagship Suite seat that transforms into a fully flat six-foot, eight-inch bed with drop-down armrests that allow for easier access and more sleeping space. For details, please view the full release. The Business Class cabin will also be outfitted with fully flat seats – all with aisle access. The fully flat seat has three motors that offer extensive flexibility and comfort. For details, please view full release. Seats throughout Economy Class will have a higher recline pivot, providing increased knee room. The seat bottom will articulate, producing an innovative cradling motion to better distribute weight while increasing the recline angle of the seatback, resulting in improved overall customer comfort while protecting the personal space for customers in the following row. American will also offer an Economy Class premium seat product, which will include additional legroom for seats in the forward portion of the cabin, allowing greater personal space and convenient access when boarding and deplaning American Airlines Unveils 777-300ER Aircraft Interior Selections Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
