Arik Air among world’s 10 best in economy class

Arik Air has been ranked among the 10 best airlines in the world in the economy class on its wide body aircraft for medium and long haul flights.

A report by airlinequality.com noted that the majority of airlines offer 31 to 32 inches, with some offering even as low as 29 to 30 inches, but Arik is one of the “elite few that still provide a comfortable 34-inch seat pitch where travellers will enjoy greatest comfort.”

Others rated in this category are Qatar Airways, Kingfisher Airlines, Thai Airways, Asiana Airlines, Malaysia Airlines, Saudi Arabian Airlines, Air China, Garuda Indonesia, and Korean Air.

Arik Managing Director, Chris Ndulue, said all its aircraft are configured to provide more legroom whether in all classes – Economy, Business, Premier.

He disclosed that a Premier class seat converts into a full flat bed for maximum comfort for customers whether flying domestic, regional or intercontinental.
