Air New Zealand working on 'refined' seat design

"Our goal is to redefine what long-haul travel can be," Air NZ chief executive Rob Fyfe said during a recent teleconference. "And I think the next generation of change will see a lot more innovation in the economy cabins compared to the focus in the premium cabins over the last few years." Several airlines, including Qantas, have already unveiled redesigned economy seats to give people more space by changing the way the seat reclines.
