Pieter C. 5 Report post Posted July 23, 2008 Nice cabins Kingfisher has... Rumours are, they applied slots @ AMS, for their NYC-flights (A330); if those cabins are the same AND they offer good fares in the Dutch market, no doubt, they will be successful !!! Do you have any more news and/or can confirm this ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vivek 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2008 Nice cabins Kingfisher has... Rumours are, they applied slots @ AMS, for their NYC-flights (A330); if those cabins are the same AND they offer good fares in the Dutch market, no doubt, they will be successful !!! Do you have any more news and/or can confirm this ? Yes, they have enquired for slots at AMS, although they seem to be looking at other airports in Europe as well. I am not quite sure whether they have made a formal application for slots at AMS. Kingfisher's international product on their A330s looks absolutely fabulous (although its a bit too much of red IMO ) Their premium class (Kingfisher calls it "Kingfisher First") looks really neat. Here are the highlights of their International offering: The "Kingfisher First" cabin has 30 full flat-bed seats with a 180 degree recline, in a seat pitch of 78 inches, and a seat width of 20 to 24.54 inches. The inflight entertainment in Kingfisher First uses 17 inch IFE screens, with AVOD touch screen controls and offers a total of 357 hours of programming and content spread over 36 channels. Other "Kingfisher First" cabin features include: * An in-seat massager on every seat * Touch screen controls * Mood lighting * Service for jacket ironing onboard * Spectacle cleaning * Shopping on board * Merino wool blankets * Noise cancellation headphones by BOSE * In-seat chargers and USB connectors for every seat * 5-course meals * Finest wines, spirits and liquor The Economy "Kingfisher Class" cabin has 187 seats, offering a seat pitch of 34 inches, a seat width of 18 inches, and a seat recline of 25 degrees (6 inches). Other "Kingfisher Class" cabin features include: * Business class meals in economy (larger portions) * International cabin crew * Full length modacrylic blankets * Full size pillow * KFC in seat chargers * USB connectors 1 for 2 * Mood lighting * Web chat & E-mail The inflight entertainment in Kingfisher Class uses 10.6 inch IFE screens, with AVOD touch screen controls and offers a total of 357 hours of programming and content spread over 36 channels.

Seth K 3 Report post Posted September 6, 2008 (edited) Vivek, excellent angle to capture that AI 744, she's so beautiful and clean I used to hate AI's new color, but now that I compared both, the new one looks way better while the old one just classic.
