What happened
Air Canada has unveiled plans to retrofit its existing wide-body aircraft with its new 'Glowing Hearted' cabin standard. The project is expected to begin by 2029 at the latest. The retrofit will cover all existing Boeing 787s and the Boeing 777s that will remain in service into the 2030s. Airbus A330s will retire with their current cabins. The new interiors will feature the Elevate Ascent seat product, which includes privacy doors, 27-inch 4K OLED monitors, Bluetooth audio, and enhanced power outlets. A front-row 'Signature Plus Suites' product will also be introduced. In addition to the hard product changes, Air Canada plans to overhaul its soft product later this year, focusing on an 'end-to-end hospitality experience' with upgraded service, food, and beverage elements
