The airline has 98 Airbus A321 and A320 on firm order and all will be fitted with the new non-reclining seat from manufacturer Acro.
The carrier said: “Critically, it provides customers with excellent levels of comfort for their flight, with the added benefits of extra leg room and added space under the seat.”
Jet2.com was Acro’s launch customer in 2008. Philip Meeson, Jet2 PLC’s executive chairman, said: “We are extremely proud of the award-winning customer experience that we deliver, and the comfort that we provide customers onboard our aircraft is critical to that.
“The lightweight, durable and comfortable Acro Series 9 seating will enable us to continue differentiating ourselves from the competition whilst providing fantastic comfort, more leg room and added space under the seat too.
"We know this seating will be enormously popular with customers travelling with us on their well-deserved holidays.”
Neil Cairns, Acro chief executive, said: “The light weight of the sleek new Series 9 is an obvious advantage, but we have combined that with ultra-robust construction and low part count designed to reduce maintenance and facilitate quick turnaround sanitising.”
