A prepaus de Butterfly Setial d'Avion

Butterfly es un sistèma flexible de setials d'avion que permet la transformacion entre setials d'economia premium e suitas-lièch de classa affaires. Cada suita Butterfly conten dos setials inclinables desplaçats l'un per rapòrt a l'autre, e los dos setials ensemble se venden coma economia premium. L'equipatge de cabina pòt bascular lo setial costat fenèstra per formar un canapè lateral, en creant una suita de classa affaires per un passatgièr. En basculant tanben lo setial costat corredor se crèa una granda susfàcia plana per dormir. Lo sistèma permet als operators d'ajustar la cabina a la demanda cambianta e d'utilizar l'espaci al sòl d'un biais eficaç.

Proprietats Unicas: Butterfly is a flexible aircraft seating system that allows instant transformation between premium economy and business class flatbed suites. The concept enables operators to adjust their cabin configuration to real-time market changes, allowing them to make efficient use of valuable floor-space, increase aircraft utilization and reduce business risk. It also gives passengers new ways to configure their own space, whether it is a cosy private retreat or a family-friendly social space.
Etiquetas: Aircraft Seating, Flexibility, Transform, Airline, Business class, Premium Economy
Inspiracion: Demand is never constant, yet aircraft configurations are usually fixed. As a passenger, I often noticed wasted space on flights. Sometimes economy class is overbooked but business class is rather empty, sometimes the opposite occurs. And as someone who have once worked in an airline, I reckon the need for an adaptable seat that can react to changing market demand. The implication to the operational efficiency is transformative, much like a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly.
Durada del Projècte: The project started in 2014 in Hong Kong and is still ongoing.
Flux Operacional: Each Butterfly suite is made of two reclining seats staggered relative to each other. When both seats are used, they are sold as premium economy class. Airline crew can flip the window seat over to form a side couch, which turns it into a long-haul business class suite for one passenger. When the aisle seat is flipped over as well, it forms a flat surface continuous with the side couch, which together forms a large sleeping surface long enough for a passenger to lie flat diagonally.
