CNN.com reports British Airways has unveiled its new Club World seat, the centerpiece in its $191 million overhaul of its long haul business class cabin, ground service and in-flight entertainment system. Besides a seat that is 25% wider and more than 6’ in length, there is a new opaque privacy screen that seperates the seats.
It can be raised or lowered electronically, and is made of an innovative material, Lumisty, (supplied by GlassFilm Enterprises) which enables cabin crew standing next to it to see through it, while still appearing opaque to the passengers sitting on either side.
