Spanish budget airline Vueling is to enhance its offering to business travellers with its new Duo seat secured in the front row and complimentary snacks and drinks on board.
The Duo product is very limited on what is on offer. Just four seats per flight on the airline's Airbus A320. However it does enable a passenger to enjoy much more space at all times. Another advantage is the lack of the need to rush on board to secure space for your hand luggage. This is guaranteed and reserved for you. However if you are very tall you can buy a seat by the emergency exit about halfway down the plane.
This new service is targeted at business passengers, who today account for 44% of all Vueling customers. It will be marketed both through travel agencies, and Vueling's website from £52. Duo service is available on all routes including Heathrow from where it serves Bilbao, Galicia, La Coruna, Seville and Vigo. It claims to be the only 'low cost' airline at the World's busiest international airport. www.vueling.com
