Uzbekistan Airways is launch customer for Jiatai’s JT220B Premium seat

Uzbekistan Airways has signed a contract with Jiatai to supply seats for its upcoming Airbus A321neo fleet. Under this agreement, the airline will serve as the launch customer for Jiatai's JT220B Premium seat. The JT220B is an electrically actuated business-class seat.

The Shubin take

Integrating an electric business-class seat like the JT220B into the A321neo requires careful attention to seat track loading and in-seat power routing. As the launch customer, Uzbekistan Airways and Jiatai will need to navigate the initial certification path and dynamic testing for this specific seat-airframe combination. This milestone also signals Jiatai's growing footprint in the narrowbody premium seating supply chain.
