“This innovation concerns those who cannot comfortably fit within standard seats,” stated representatives of the airline.

The introduction of this rule aims to ensure comfortable conditions for all passengers during the flight.

It is important to monitor how this rule will affect the popularity of the airline's flights and its competitors in the market.
