BUSINESS CLASS

The Business Class cabin is a sleek and contemporary envi-ronment that connects the onboard experience with the passenger’s world of high end product and interior design. Materials and finishes are luxurious, with soothing tan and grey tones that provide a mindful space for passengers to relax. Attention is in every detail; the choice of a mar-ble-effect granite for the cocktail table for instance, visually references the beautiful veining seen in aerial photographs of the Andes mountain chain.

Features of the Business Class cabin include:

• Customized Thompson seats with direct aisle access for every passenger• Seating options for both individuals and couples travelling together• A full-flat bed• Up to 18” personal screen• Ample storage space for personal items• Granite cocktail table • Reading light• Wash lighting around seat architecture• Optional privacy screen• Do not disturb sign

LATAM+ Seats

The trim and finish for the LATAM+ Seats in the Economy cabin is inspired by the South American coastline. The grades of blue on the dress cover represent the many deep shades of the ocean, while the tan headrest and the lined pattern on the seats reference sand dunes.

ECONOMY CLASS

The Economy cabin features Recaro seats with custom dress covers. From deep blues to vibrant reds, the colours of the materials reference the vivid beach-set sunsets, and the warmth of the South American people.
