HAECO’s Vector Economy seats are manufactured at HAECO Cabin Solutions in Greensboro, North Carolina. “We are honoured to collaborate with Air New Zealand and highly value them as a strategic partner of the HAECO Group,” HAECO Cabin Solutions president and group director, Doug Rasmussen, said. “Through the use of leading edge design principles and material selection, including composites and titanium, this seat achieves the dual goals of reduced weight and high durability.”
