Air France unveils the new cabin interiors on its Embraer 190 fleet

At the Aircraft Interiors Expo in Hamburg, Germany, on May 28, 2024, Air France made an exclusive debut of the revamped cabins set to grace all Embraer 190s operated by its regional subsidiary.

Commencing in autumn 2024, the first of these elegantly refurbished aircraft will take flight, marking a significant step in the airline’s commitment to elevating its short and medium-haul travel experience.

With a focus on standardizing products and services, Air France has meticulously redesigned the Embraer 190 cabins to ensure passenger comfort, sustainability, and aesthetic appeal. The aircraft will boast 110 new seats arranged in a 2-2 configuration, each meticulously crafted with leather upholstery and ergonomic foam padding.

These seats offer enhanced comfort with a generous 46 cm seat pan, a recline of up to three inches, and features such as tray tables, optimized storage space, removable armrests, and coat hooks. Moreover, adjustable headrests and retractable holders with ribbed, non-slip surfaces for smartphones or tablets add a touch of convenience.

For discerning Business customers, an exclusive cabin at the front of the aircraft will provide enhanced privacy and comfort. A mobile curtain separates this section from the rest of the cabin, and from January 2025, each Business customer will enjoy the luxury of an empty seat beside them.

Mirroring the Air France signature colors seen in Airbus A220 cabins, the Embraer 190 interiors will showcase shades of blue, accentuated by white for light and contrast, and touches of red symbolizing the airline’s excellence and expertise. The seat design, featuring symmetrical stitching and grey embroidery thread, ensures optimum comfort and style. Carbon fiber and titanium construction make the seats ultra-light yet robust, incorporating recycled components and minimal plastic.
