Jet turns on the style in Paris

Thursday, 26 Jun, 2007 0

PARIS: Amid all the talk of new and promised orders at the Paris Air Show, Jet Airways’ latest Boeing 777-300ER stood out from the crowd.

The aircraft’s colours aren’t the only change for India’s largest private airline. Jet Airways’ 777-300ER is fitted with an innovative interior, including newly created first class suites with premiere amenities.

Each of the first class suites offers nearly 26 sq ft (2.4 sq m) of usable space that can be closed off with sliding doors. The suites feature a 23-inch flat-screen monitor, storage areas that include a personal hanging wardrobe and a 6’ 11” (2.1m) flat bed.

With a business-jet style table, two can dine comfortably in the suite.

The twin-engine 777-300ER, one of 10 777s Jet Airways has ordered, is configured in three classes, including eight first class suites, 30 Premiere seats and 274 economy seats.

Jet Airways operates the 777-300ER on a Mumbai – London route. On August 5, the 14-year-old airline will become the first private airline flying from India to the United States, operating the Boeing 777-300ER via Brussels – its newly created European hub.

Jet airways and Qantas this week announced a code share deal on flights between Australia and India.
