KLM is the first customer to order JAMCO&rsquo;s new &ldquo;Venture&rdquo; business-class seats.</strong></p>
]]></pp:summary><description><![CDATA[<p>The next-generation seat is lighter than its predecessors, reducing fuel consumption. In addition, the fishbone configuration of the new Venture seats ensures more effective utilisation of the available space.</p><p>KLM is the first European airline that will fly with the new Boeing 787-10. The first airplane will be delivered in June, 2019. The new Dreamliner is an extended version of the already operating Boeing 787-9.</p><p><strong>KLM World Business Class</strong><br />KLM is constantly striving to improve customer experience. This is exemplified by JAMCO&rsquo;s Venture seats, which offer passengers greater personal space and comfort, with full-flat recline and an 18.5-inch entertainment screen. Another new feature is the &ldquo;Do not disturb&rdquo; button on the armrest, which passengers can turn on and off at will. The middle seats in WBC have a movable partition, allowing passengers to opt for maximum privacy or for an optimum shared travel experience.</p><p><strong>Aisle is directly accessible</strong><br />There will be 38 World Business Class seats aboard these new aircraft. All of these seats will offer direct access to the aisle. The new seats will be KLM-branded, based on a design created in cooperation with Hella Jongerius.</p><p><strong>JAMCO Group</strong><br />The JAMCO Group is a Japanese corporation serving the aviation industry. It has divisions for aircraft interiors, aircraft components, aircraft maintenance, and aircraft seats. JAMCO was established in 1955 and is a longstanding supplier of Boeing and Airbus. JAMCO supplies the galleys installed aboard KLM&rsquo;s long-haul fleet.</p>]]></description><pp:quotes><pp:quote>
