Qantas Economy Class
From FlyerWiki
[edit] On Ground Services
For the safety and comfort of all our customers, and to ensure compliance with Civil Aviation Safety Authority Regulations, it is necessary to limit the size, weight and number of each customer's carry on baggage. Carry on baggage should be kept as light as possible, at some airports there are considerable distances to walk upon arrival or departure. However, you should carry fragile and valuable items, such as electronic equipment (including laptops, mobile phones), cameras, cash, keys and jewellery etc. in your carry on baggage. You should also take any essential medication and prescriptions on board with you.[1]
[edit] Economy Class Seat
The Economy Class offers a ergonomically designed seat with adjustable headrest "wings" and built-in lumbar support for your comfort. Economy customers seeking extra legroom can purchase exit tow seats on Qantas operated international flights (excluding Tasman/Noumea services and those operated by single aisle aircraft). The seats can be purchased between seven days up to 24 hours prior to flight departure or at the airport on request at check-in on day of travel, if available.[2] The Qantas A380 offers a new Marc Newson designed seat, manufactured by Recaro, and featuring a sliding base that moves with the seat back to create a more comfortable, ergonomically correct position to aid sleep and eliminate pressure points. The innovative design also includes a foot net, increased knee and shin room between seats and a larger seat back entertainment screen. The main deck Economy cabin is configured in a three-four-three layout and offers four self-service bars. In May 2009, Qantas won the prestigious Design Award of the Year at the Australian International Design Awards for the seat.[3]
