Over the past few days there have been rumours swirling around about a possible new business class product on SQ's A350-900 ULRs, which are deployed on several of the nonstop SIN - USA flights.
I hope these rumours are true, because the current business class seat product on the A359 (and 77WR) are now 10 years old, and due for an upgrade. Frankly, these seats don't compare well with the newer business class seats that many competitors now offer.
The last major cabin product rollout SQ had was regional business class on the 787-10 and medium haul A350-900's. Since then, it's been very quiet as far as new cabin products are concerned.
Sure, they rolled out a new 737 business class product (I found those seats quite impressive!) but apart from that, it's been a while since long haul business class has been refreshed, with the last long haul J product introductions being the 2017 Monocoque business class seats on the A380.
SQ had planned to roll out new J seats on the 777-9, however, the introduction of those planes looks to have been delayed, so it makes sense for them to roll out their next generation J products on other equipment types in the mean time.
If anyone has heard anything on the grapevine about these new cabin products, do share the info here!
