Airline Seat Covers

[TJ747]

HI THERE,

Just out of interest, does anyone know how much it would likely to cost to refit say a 737-300 with brand new seat covers.

Just wondered how much seat covers actually cost and whether they are a big expense or not to airlines.

Many Thx

Not sure how much it would cost, but I am reliably informed that leather is cheaper on the longrun!!

It depends on configuration. How many Y and how many J class seats? Also depends on where you buy them - country and manufacturer.

Estimates - been a while since I bought any and they were from the US. I've tried to relate this to bought in the UK, where everything is more expensive.

Y class backs - GBP60
Y class Bottoms - GBP30
J class Backs - GBP85
J class Bottoms - GBP45

If headrest covers are involved - 20-25 GBP.
All each, of course.
