Bombardier Introduces CRJ Cabin Upgrade
Retrofits available in 12 months, but still no launch customer

Bombardier has begun marketing an improved cabin for the CRJ regional jet series, the company revealed on Tuesday at the Regional Airline Association convention Charlotte, North Carolina. Speaking at the convention’s first media briefing, Bombardier Commercial Aircraft vice president of marketing Patrick Baudis explained that the effort involves widening the passenger entry, new mood lighting and a new lavatory design. The exercise also slightly increased the size of the bins in the main cabin and added significantly more space in the business-class bins.
