Korean Air Premium Economy Cabin
While the B787-10 will not feature the new Premium Economy seats, these are expected to debut on the refurbished Boeing 777-300/ERs.
Korean Air Chairman and CEO Walter Cho has hinted that the B777s might also see a larger Business Class cabin at the expense of First Class, as reported by Executive Traveller.
Korean Air has opted for a low-key rollout of this new product, quietly updating its website rather than issuing a press release.
It has 20 Boeing 787-10s currently on order, and 25 B777-300/ERs set to be retrofitted, both models will feature the new Prestige Suites 2.0.
