In the rear of an Aer Lingus A321XLR, seated in an economy class window seat, the author’s legs are about two inches from the seatback in front of her. The seatback pocket is stuffed with literature.

Loved experiencing the @recaro-as.bsky.social R7 mini-suite at #AIX2025. The business class seat has been flying for a few years. Iberia was the launch customer and LATAM signed on last year. Thanks for your hospitality, Recaro. #PaxEx

The hottest seat on @recaro-as.bsky.social’s stand at #AIX2025? The new front row, ‘Plus’ version of its R7 business class seat — quickly followed by its new eVTOL seat collaboration with Eve. A special @thatjohn.bsky.social deep dive about Plus is coming soon to RGN. #PaxEx
John Walton and Seth Miller in the business class Plus model. Two hands exploring the R7 Plus door. Lots of activity around the Plus Seth Miller in the new eVTOL seat for Eve.
