Contour's success with B787 ‘Aura’ premium business class product
Contour Premium Aircraft Seating’s new Aura premium business class product has been selected by six airlines for their Boeing 787 fleets - making Aura one of the most successful premium business class product in the Boeing 787 Dreamliner Catalogue to date.
Graham Ballard, Business Development Director at Contour said:
“A significant part of Aura’s success comes from the 3-inches of additional space that the unique S-shaped side arm yields to the width of the seat bay, providing 11% more width along the entire bed length with no tapering at the feet, when compared to similar products in its class.”
Aura is a flexible solution that has been engineered to deliver modularity, incorporating different widths and pitches adaptable for a range of cabins, including twin-aisle and even single-aisle aircraft whilst utilising existing seat tracks. Its re-programmable controls allow it to be re-configured by the airline themselves from an angled bed to a full lie-flat solution and thus helping airlines to meet the demands of seasonal routes or other operational changes.
Aura, designed by Acumen Design Associates, also has an enhanced centre console providing maximum stowage options and its unique in-board armrests double as in-built privacy screens.
Graham Ballard adds:
“Aura is the product of a new philosophy of not only responding to but anticipating the demands of premium aircraft travel. Considering both the airline and the passenger alike, we aim to build on the success of ten years, where we have been at the forefront of all that is new, and deliver even more for our customers.”
