It can accommodate up to ten passengers but normally flies six to eight. The seats are wider and the head and armrests have been redesigned to provided more aisle space.
The lavatory too has been redesigned to create more room for dressing. The vanity offers additional surface space for the placement of toiletries.
The aircraft provides the largest external baggage storage in its class with 80 cubic feet of baggage area and a weight capacity of 700 pounds.
