LATAM Group has recently unveiled a new Economy cabin design for its Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft, investing US$15 million to enhance the onboard experience for passengers. The redesigned cabin features a range of upgrades that include a new onboard entertainment system and sustainable seat upholstery.
One of the key upgrades in the new onboard entertainment system is the ability for Economy class passengers to connect their personal headphones via Bluetooth and enjoy a wide variety of content on 12-inch high-definition touchscreens. This includes over 170 movies, 550 TV show episodes, 100 music albums, and exclusive content from popular platforms like HBO Max, Paramount+, and Disney+.
Another enhancement is the introduction of a new interactive 3D map called Panasonic’s Arc™, which provides detailed information about landmarks and streets from the air, allowing passengers to explore iconic places in different cities during their flight. This feature will be introduced on four aircraft this year, totaling an investment of US$60 million.
The redesigned cabin also features seat upholstery made with 57% recycled leather, reducing carbon emissions by up to 60% and saving water and land use by up to 55%. This sustainable material production is another step towards eco-friendliness, as all narrow-body aircraft in the LATAM group fleet already include this eco-friendly material. Additionally, the cabin offers headrests, a 6-inch recline, and a renewed onboard entertainment system with 12-inch screens.
Economy passengers also have the option to travel even more comfortably in LATAM+ seats, which provide extra legroom, more recline, exclusive luggage space, and priority boarding and disembarkation. These enhancements reflect the unique spirit and pride of South America and further improve the overall flying experience for LATAM passengers.
In summary, LATAM Group’s new Economy cabin design for its Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft aims to enhance the onboard experience for passengers through various upgrades such as a new onboard entertainment system with personal headphones via Bluetooth connection
