Set to redefine air travel, Riyadh Air, Saudi Arabia’s innovative new airline, has unveiled its stunning cabin interiors that promise a world-class guest experience. Scheduled to commence operations later in 2025, Riyadh Air combines cutting-edge technology with elegant design to deliver unparalleled comfort and style across its fleet of Boeing 787-9 aircraft.
A Revolutionary Approach to Cabin Design

Riyadh Air’s cabin interiors set a new standard with carefully crafted details and ergonomic seating. Whether travelling in Business Elite, Premium Economy, or Economy, passengers will enjoy thoughtful touches designed to maximise relaxation.
- Business Elite: Luxurious Safran Unity Elite seats in a 1-2-1 configuration offer fully flat beds spanning 78 inches, complemented by sliding privacy doors, 52-inch-high walls, and a 32-inch 4K OLED entertainment screen—the largest in Business Class globally.
- Premium Economy: Recaro PL3530 seats in a 2-3-2 layout provide generous 38-inch seat pitch, 15.6-inch entertainment screens, and refined lounge comfort with privacy head wings and expanded storage options.

Design That Tells a Story
Riyadh Air’s design philosophy blends Saudi heritage with modern luxury. Lavender tones lend elegance to Economy cabins, while Mocha Gold metallic accents add sophistication to Premium classes. The cabins feature a curated palette of indigo, mocha, and skyline blue hues, reflecting the spirit of Riyadh while evoking a sense of refined comfort. Integrated suite lighting adjusts to passengers’ natural rhythms, enhancing the overall travel experience.
Next-Generation Amenities
Riyadh Air’s commitment to convenience is evident in its unique features:
- Free high-speed Wi-Fi across all cabins for loyalty program members, offering onboard streaming, browsing, and gaming.
- Immersive audio technology, courtesy of Devialet, embedded directly in Business Elite and Business class headrests—no headphones required.
- The largest in-flight entertainment screens with Panasonic Avionics’ interactive design tool, keeping content fresh and relevant.

With a fleet-wide consistency of cabin interiors, passengers can rely on the same level of quality and luxury for every flight. The airline’s innovative approach is transforming the guest journey, setting Riyadh Air apart as a leader in aviation’s next chapter.
Having recently acquired its Air Operator Certificate (AOC), Riyadh Air is gearing up to announce its network and first flight date soon. With exceptional service, cutting-edge aircraft, and a focus on customer care, Riyadh Air is ready to connect Saudi Arabia to the world.
