Flynas Partners With Safran To Upgrade A320neo Fleet With Z200 Seats

flynas has entered into an agreement with Safran to outfit its upcoming fleet of 60 Airbus A320neo aircraft with the latest-generation Z200 seats.

The Economy class will be equipped with seats designed for medium- to long-haul flights, incorporating features such as smart cushions, portable electronic device holders, dual USB-A and USB-C power ports with 60W output, lower literature pockets, coat hooks, and cup holders.

Bander Almohanna, CEO of flynas, highlighted that this collaboration aligns with the airline's expansion strategy, which aims to connect Saudi Arabia with 250 international destinations, accommodate 330 million passengers, and host 100 million tourists annually by 2030. He stated that the partnership with Safran is instrumental in reimagining flynas' future cabins with smart design and advanced technologies, offering passengers a unique and comfortable travel experience.

Quentin Munier, Executive Vice President of Safran Seats France, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, noting that this marks Safran's first partnership with flynas. He emphasized that the Z200 seats are designed to deliver benefits for both passengers and operators, enhancing comfort and operational efficiency.
