Philippine Airlines Fleet Airbus A330-300 Details and Pictures

Philippine Airlines Fleet Airbus A330-300 Details and Pictures. On current fleet, Philippine Airlines (PAL) operates 15 wide-body aircraft Airbus A330-300 for long-haul flights.

Philippine Airlines (PAL) configured their Airbus A330-300 with business class, premium economy, and economy class onboard.

In 2017, Philippine Airlines completed the refurbishment of 8 single-class Airbus A330s and fitted these with a 309-seater tri-class configuration.

While the planes came from the airline’s existing fleet (the single-class equipment used to ply certain domestic routes), the new cabins came with the international destinations in mind.

This marked the start of the most recent phase of PAL’s seat modernization which as of this writing also include A350s, A321neos and even refurbished 777-300ER.

Prior to this, the older Philippine Airlines A330 business class seats were rather unremarkable.

Philippine Airlines Fleet Airbus A330-300 Cabin Interior Class Configuration and Seats Layout

Philippine Airlines flies their wide-body aircraft Airbus A330-300 on two different cabin layout configurations.

First layout of Airbus A330-300 features a three class configuration with 18 flat bed Business Class seats, 33 Premium Economy seats with up to 3” of extra legroom, and 312 standard Economy Class seats.

Second layout of this aircraft features a three-class configuration with 18 flat-bed Business Class seats, 24 Premium Economy recliner seats, and 267 Economy seats; 309 seats in total.

This plane offers GSM and Wi-Fi access to allowing passengers to browse the web, make phone calls, or stream content via their personal devices.

The business class cabin of the PAL’s tri-class A330s comes with 18 seats which provide for greater privacy than in the past.

At first glance, the seat seems to roll up as a shell of its own.

Certain seats are more private than others, especially those with the wide armrest facing the aisles.

If you have previously flown business class with Qantas or SAS on the A330, you might find the Vantage XL seats uncannily familiar.

Save for the color scheme, certain elements of these Thompson Aerospace products are exactly the same down to the location of the light and remote.

With a seating configuration of 1-2-1, the tri-class A330 marks the first time Philippine Airlines finally offered a business class product with direct aisle access for all seats.

The business class seats come with a seat pitch of 44 inches and a bed length of 78 inches when fully flat.

The width, at 23 inches, is also superior compared to the other aircraft types utilized by the airline.

For charging, there is an actual power socket or USB port.

There is also a small remote with which one could control the lights or call for assistance.

The tray table, which directly slides from the side, is rather compact but is big enough for meal service and for putting one’s laptop for work.
