Singapore Airlines (SIA) will be launching its latest aircraft cabin products to Nepal today with flight SQ441/2. The flight will arrive at Tribhuvan International Airport at 10:10pm local time and depart for Singapore at 11:10pm local time.

All of SIA’s 737-8 aircraft offer 154 seats in two classes, 10 in Business Class and 144 in Economy Class, with new cabin products featuring bespoke elements that have been designed especially for the SIA customer.

The lie-flat Business Class seats have been designed by London-based Factorydesign, and manufactured for Singapore Airlines by Thompson Aero Seating. The Economy Class cabin will feature the latest generation sleek and slim-line seats, which have been built by Collins Aerospace. The 737-8 cabin has been designed with a special focus on ergonomics, helping to ensure that everything is within easy reach for customers.

With these cabin products, our passengers will enjoy world class service even on our narrowbody aircraft, reads the press release issued by the carrier. The aircraft feature Panasonic’s X-Series seat-back in-flight entertainment, allowing all customers to enjoy the latest KrisWorld entertainment content. The fleet is also fitted with Panasonic’s in-flight Wi-Fi service, as well as mobile data connectivity services.

Lee Lik Hsin, Executive Vice President Commercial, Singapore Airlines said, “This is the culmination of three years of innovation and hard work, involving extensive customer research and close partnerships with designers and suppliers. As a result, we can now offer customers a premium travel experience across our entire full-service network, no matter how long or short their journey.”

Singapore Airlines has invested around S$230 million on the development, design, and installation of the new industry-leading cabin products, which elevate the standard for short- and medium-haul travel on board narrowbody aircraft.

Melvin Tan, General Manager Nepal, Singapore Airlines said, “These are exciting times ahead for our customers in Nepal. With the Boeing 737 -8 fleet serving the Kathmandu route, we look forward to welcoming our customers for a pampering experience whenever they travel with Singapore Airlines.”

Singapore Airlines currently operates nine weekly flights between Kathmandu and Singapore.
