Love the deep vein thrombosis leg rests in business class. They "look" comfortable, but in reality they suck/hurt. Unless you're a baby.

I wonder if they also get sent to Istanbul as the TK wet lease ends.

The singular shade of blue is too much for me. For an airline with the name "IndiGo", you would think they would add another shade of blue to break up the monotony.

Looks more like a shallow vein thrombosis

Same economy seat type as KLM’s cabin refits, perhaps a touch of Pieter Elbers?

Unfortunately for Aegean, there seem to be some issues with JetBlue’s seats that are preventing the A321XLRs from being delivered. Cabin crew training has been placed on hold and ticket sales were supposed to start in September. The delay will be significant.

No these looks much thinner. KL Recaro seats have more padding than these. Looks uncomfortable even for 4 hours to be honest.

What sort of issues.
Manufacturing? Those seat have been in production for a while, so I don't expect an manufacturing issues (quality or quantity) it was in production for JetBlue up till around Q3 2025.

Certification? The seats have long been certified by EASA while also oversees Greece aviation. Greece Civil Aviation Authorities can just simply adopte EASA certification.

It was never stated that Aegean planned on changing the aircraft significantly (no LOPA changes, no CMF changes) maybe a minor branding change
