in this article https://www.flightglobal.com/systems-and-interiors/safran-expands-seat-options-for-e-jet-family/141981.article, new seats for Emrbaer E-jets are described. They are developed by Safran, but in the article there is a picture of a block of 3 seats... which i do not find possible for E-jets. Is is just a matter of random picture chosen by the journalist or what???

The seat comes in 2 and 3 seat sets. The journalist just used the stock 3 seat version image from the manufacturers website.

This is what it is supposed to look like in an Embraer:

That looks bold! thanks for the clarification!

Mmmm... white headrests are a bold idea

It's just the manufacturers choice for the PR campaign. Customers will select their own colours.

I like the leather seats on the E-jets, really comfy !!

These ones seem to be harsh on your bu.. I mean, your back ! LOL

So, all in all - confirming that the proposed set up, by Safran - is the use of 4 seats with a central aisle (between them).

New, nice, and gorgeous - and would integrate well with Embraer's design cues, notes and concepts for the E2 line.

I cannot though, find the seat's width, and the proposed seat pitch for the cabin as proposed above - from their information listed in their press release.

Somewhat off topic, but is there a reason most E-Jets have the same Y seats? Was there only one type of seat that was certified?

AA, BA, AC, BA, DL, B6, VA, AD, LO all look to have the same seat. The only other variation I see is the horrible design that both UA and AS have with no padding whatsoever.

I think it was a lack of other options. KLM is putting the horrible seat they fitted in the 4 newest 737s in the E2s they are getting soon.

I think I recall hearing that certain Delta Connection, Skywest, E175s have a different seat from earlier E175s, like the ones operated by Republic and Compass.

Seat width is determined by the Seat Manufacturer, Seat Pitch by the Operator; so, since it was a Safran PR Release, they won't say the Pitch since it's out of their control.
