Seat Types

[Afakasi]

In terms of demand/ratings, is there a difference whether I use basic or regular seating?

[Unknown98]

In the very near future, yes.

As of right this second, no.

Seat type directly affects your IFE rating. Once IFS is released, the reputation of your airline will be calculated based off your average IFE and IFS ratings airline-wide rather than accumulating more reputation each time you complete a flight.

Reputation is tied to route demand already, so once the connection is made between IFE/IFS ratings and reputation, having a better IFE configuration and IFS configuration will directly increase demand for your airline, allowing you to either carry more passengers or charge higher prices without losing demand.
