First shipset delivery to Airbus in 2024 takes to the skies with AirAsia

Share

It's great to see our first shipset delivery to Airbus in 2024 taking to the skies with AirAsia working with Tony Fernandes and the team at AirAsia with more to come during the rest of the year and beyond....

The latest evolution of Mirus Aircraft Seating’s Hawk economy-class seat, is now available for selection in the Airbus A320 BFE catalogue as a Potential Future Product for airlines ordering Airbus A320 Family aircraft.

Featuring in the BFE catalogue enables airlines and lessors to select the Hawk Infinity seat and have the required number installed at the Airbus Final Assembly Line through the regular BFE Management process. Customers have already ordered the seat, with the first two customers (to be announced in due course) having the Hawk seats installed in their ordered A321Neos in Q1 2025.

Fully certified and launched in 2023, Hawk Infinity is a lightweight economy-class seat designed for airlines operating single-aisle aircraft on short- to medium-range routes. Mirus claims the Hawk Infinity offers close to a 500kg weight saving on a typical Airbus A321 in comparison to the preceding model.

 

"After the well reported impact COVID has had on our industry, many effects are still being felt by many airlines as the industry recovers to service the pent-up consumer demand for flights, it’s great to see Air Asia’s first A321NEO delivery since the pandemic take to the skies. Fitted with a bespoke version of our Hawk seat that adds even more comfort, Air Asia’s passenger will enjoy a tremendous on-board experience. Importantly, Hawk’s exceptional in-service reliability and low parts count supports low maintenance inputs and fast turnaround, whilst the contemporary and modern design, including custom dress covers, looks terrific and is designed to compliment and elevate Air Asia’s brand".
