Flag carrier TAAG Angola Airlines has selected Unum Aircraft Seating to be the Business Class seating supplier for its Boeing 787 aircraft, as part of its ongoing investment in enhancing passenger experience.


Flag carrier TAAG Angola Airlines (TAAG) has selected Unum Aircraft Seating to be the Business Class seating supplier for its Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft. The project is part of TAAG’s ongoing investment in enhancing passenger experience and fleet modernisation.

“Introducing Unum One into our Business Class cabin gives us the tools to enhance comfort and quality for our passengers,” said Miguel Carneiro, Chief Commercial Officer, TAAG. “This upgrade aligns with our ongoing commitment to delivering a world-class travel experience.”

The Unum One lie-flat seat chosen by TAAG features Unum’s patented Scimitar Seat mechanism, which is designed to offer exceptional comfort and infinite adjustability. Its simplicity and elegance of design, combined with a careful choice of materials, creates a seat with maximum comfort and minimum weight.

“The launch of our first customer programme with TAAG is a major milestone, and TAAG’s choice of Unum One reflects their commitment to enhancing the passenger experience,” said Chris Brady, Founder and CEO, Unum. “Our seats provide greater comfort for passengers while making life easier for airlines, delivering both luxury and refinement. We’re proud to support TAAG and look forward to seeing Unum One flying aboard their Boeing B787s soon.”

Panasonic Avionics inflight entertainment will be integrated into the Business Class suites, with Boeing Global Services handling the cabin integration for the project. The seats are due to be delivered in 2026.
