Aircraft Interiors International

Chris Dela Rosa, cabin product director at Alaska Airlines, discusses everything from advances in seat comfort to universal design language, to the challenges of fleet retrofits, galley gates, his fondness for David Neeleman – and what the industry is not talking about but should be.

Chris is a born and bred New Yorker who was previously an aircraft interiors specialist at JetBlue and now resides in the Pacific Northwest. A true cabin innovator, his self-declared mission is to bring the Alaska Airlines experience to life “one aircraft at a time”.
