00:00This is our A380, it's a wonderful double-decker aircraft that we have and just like you said so

00:06this all here is all of our premium economy which is being introduced now with a brand new service

00:12starting from the 1st of August and then at the back we do have our economy class and then upstairs

00:18we have our business and first class with the showers. How many seats do you have here? 62,

00:22yeah 62 here and all of them do exactly the same so they recline nicely they have an additional

00:28eight inches that it goes back into the recline when you press the push button here and then also

00:34for the footstool here it also comes out so the bed will go back that's very nice overall it's

00:42about 40 inches the space that you will have with a lovely screen here as you can see you're at the

00:49front of the bulkhead here but all of our screens are exactly the same at 13.3 inches so you can

01:01documentaries and our live tv that we also have on board here yeah you're welcome survey and our

02:33frequency sir this we will we have six frequency to london's today so that obviously giving us

02:42a good market penetration with our premium economy as well as we started with the

02:51paris and then we will do the australia we wish and we would like to launch the premium economy

02:59into all of our destinations but with the limited number
