Spirit Airlines upgrades seats using Acro Aircraft Seating

Spirit Airlines has upgraded its seating options by using by UK-based Acro Aircraft Seating.

Not only including thicker padding, as well as an additional pre-recline, the middle seats will also gain another inch of width.

The new softer seats include a full-size tray table and an elevated literature pocket and are designed in a matte-black colour with border stitching in Spirit’s signature yellow.

Installation of the new seats will begin in November and continue through 2020 on all new Spirit deliveries.

Ted Christie, Spirit Airlines’ president and chief executive officer, said: “Last year I signed a pledge to look at every facet of our Guest experience and determine where we could improve.

"This investment in our seats and onboard experience is a direct result of that commitment, and it also allows us to enhance our product value while maintaining our industry-leading cost structure.

“We have listened to our guests, and we are responding with these new, more comfortable seats.”
