With regard to the new inflight entertainment features and their inclusion in the economy class cabins, Dato' Ahmad Fuaad said: "We value this class of passengers too -- increasingly younger, more IT savvy, and who are our potential premium passengers."
The B777-200 aircraft design will convert the three classes into a two-class configuration: business and economy. There will be 42 business-class seats and 247 economy-class seats. The B747-400 will still have all three classes but fewer seats overall, with 12 in first class, 41 in business class and 306 economy class seats.
The final feature of the upgrade will be newly designed exteriors for the planes, which will employ unique hibiscus, heliconia and ribbon motifs, which will mirror the red and blue tones of the refurbished cabins. The hibiscus is Malaysia's national flower.
