Fresh New Look Debuts in Boeing Next-Generation 737 Lavatories
SEATTLE, Jan. 16, 2004 -- Boeing is introducing a redesigned lavatory for its Next-Generation 737 commercial airplanes that is more comfortable and aesthetically pleasing for passengers and easier for airlines to maintain. A 737-700 delivered to China Southern Airlines today is the first to carry the new lavatory. Reflecting passenger and airlines suggestions, the new lavatory features a seat and lid damper, which slows the closure of the seat and lid and prevents slamming, a gently-curved composite countertop that holds a larger stainless steel sink, and an adjustable temperature-controlled faucet that can be operated with one hand.
