Thai Airways has selected the R3 long-range economy seat from Recaro for it’s A321neo fleet. The seats will be fitted to the airline’s upcoming delivery of 32 aircraft, with the first shipset delivery scheduled in Q4 of 2025.<\/p>\n

The new seats will feature a purple design with an intricate stitching pattern inspired by elements of the airline’s logo, creating a subtle tufting on the backrest, with the full logo debossed on the headrest. Seat production is currently underway at the seat manufacturer’s facility in Poland, featuring an in-house, cut-to-dress team responsible for the custom backrest stitching.<\/p>\n
