Air France

Air France has announced a new lightweight and "comfortable" short-haul seat. The airline says that the seats lightweight will significantly improve the environmental performance of the aircraft. The legroom has increased by 2 to 3 inches, the seatback has a natural 15-degree recline, and has a more streamlined design.

The new seat will gradually be introduced on Air France’s domestic fleet of Airbus A319s, A320s and A321s.
