Air Premia Expands Economy Seat Pitch by Reducing Seat Count

Economy seat pitch on aircraft HL8701 increased from 31 to 33 inches Total seat count adjusted from 344 to 326 as part of cabin space and comfort upgrades, including new carpet installation SEOUL, South Korea, March 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Air Premia, Korea's only hybrid airline, has enhanced passenger comfort by reducing the total number of seats while expanding seat pitch to enhance passenger comfort. Air Premia Expands Economy Seat Pitch by Reducing Seat Count The airline announced that the economy class seat pitch on aircraft HL8701 has been increased from 31 inches to 33 inches. Following the adjustment, the aircraft's total seat capacity has been reduced from 344 seats to 326 seats, a decrease of 18 seats. Unlike the common industry practice of increasing seat density to improve profitability, Air Premia has focused on expanding seat space to improve passenger comfort and overall travel experience. The aircraft completed its seat reconfiguration in mid-March and entered service on March 16. Passengers on flights operated by this aircraft will now experience the expanded seat pitch. Air Premia has been continuously improving seat space to enhance comfort for passengers traveling on long-haul routes. In 2024, the airline also reconfigured two aircraft previously operating with 338 seats, reducing them to 320 seats while expanding economy class seat pitch. The airline is currently carrying out sequential seat adjustments on aircraft configured with 344 seats, with plans to expand the economy class seat pitch on all aircraft to 33 inches or more within this year. Air Premia currently operates a fleet of nine aircraft, configured with 309 seats (three aircraft), 320 seats (two aircraft), 326 seats (two aircraft), and 344 seats (two aircraft). All aircraft except the 344-seat configuration currently operate with an economy class seat pitch of 33 inches or greater. Along with the seat pitch expansion, Air Premia has also replaced the cabin carpet. The newly installed carpet is produced using digital printing technology, allowing the airline's brand identity to be naturally incorporated into the cabin interior design. In addition, the new carpet is lighter than the previous version, contributing to aircraft weight reduction and supporting environmental benefits such as improved fuel efficiency. "Air Premia is committed to continuously improving seat space and the cabin environment so that passengers traveling on long-haul routes can enjoy a more comfortable journey," an Air Premia official said. "We will continue to introduce various service enhancements to further elevate the customer experience."

MDJM LTD and H5 Advance Creative Development of International Animated Short Film

Intensive Script Workshops Highlight Artistic Depth and Cross-Cultural Creative Collaboration LONDON, March 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- MDJM LTD (Nasdaq: UOKA) ("MDJM" or the "Company") announced that the development of its animated short film project in collaboration with internationally renowned creative studio H5 (S.A.R.L.) ("H5") has recently entered an intensive script refinement phase, marking a significant step forward in the artistic development of the film. The project, currently in production development, is part of MDJM's broader initiative to create original animation works through collaborations with leading international creative studios. The ongoing dialogue between the two teams reflects a shared commitment to crafting a work of high artistic ambition and philosophical depth. Recent creative discussions between MDJM and H5 have focused on strengthening the narrative structure, emotional resonance, and symbolic language of the film. Rather than approaching animation purely as entertainment, the project is being developed as an auteur-driven cinematic work that explores complex human questions through visual storytelling and atmospheric world-building. The development process has involved extensive exchanges on how animation can convey philosophical themes through sensory experience rather than direct explanation. Particular attention has been given to the balance between narrative clarity and poetic ambiguity — ensuring that the film remains emotionally accessible while preserving the richness of its underlying ideas. According to the creative proposal prepared by H5, the project explores a near-future environment shaped by advanced systems of organization and optimization, where everyday life appears seamless and harmonious on the surface. Within this carefully designed world, the story unfolds through subtle disruptions and intimate personal discoveries that gradually open new perspectives on human experience. Rather than relying on conventional conflict or dystopian tropes, the film's narrative approach emphasizes atmosphere, discovery, and symbolic gestures. The creative team is exploring how objects, environments, and sensory details can carry metaphorical meaning — allowing philosophical questions to emerge naturally from the story's unfolding rather than through explicit discourse. This approach reflects a broader tradition of auteur animation, drawing inspiration from both Eastern and Western cinematic languages. Visual references discussed during development include works by Hayao Miyazaki, Makoto Shinkai, and Rintaro, as well as contemporary animated films that combine contemplative storytelling with immersive visual environments. Creative workshops have also examined the role of visual contrast in shaping the film's narrative arc. The proposed aesthetic direction juxtaposes technologically refined environments with spaces marked by material history and organic complexity, allowing the visual world itself to participate in the storytelling process. MDJM noted that this phase of script development highlights the collaborative nature of the project. The ongoing exchanges between MDJM and H5 demonstrate a shared dedication to rigorous creative exploration, where philosophical reflection, narrative experimentation, and visual research are developed in parallel. MDJM emphasized that the project represents an important step in the Company's strategy to develop original animation intellectual properties through partnerships with internationally recognized creative studios. The Company expects to provide further updates on the project as the creative development progresses, as and when appropriate. About MDJM LTD MDJM LTD is a global cultural innovation company focused on cultural IP development, animation production, international licensing, and cultural venue operations. The Company has been expanding its operations in the UK, where it is developing projects such as Fernie Castle in Scotland and the Robin Hill Property in England. These properties are being remodeled into multi-functional cultural venues that will feature fine dining, hospitality services, art exhibitions, and cultural exchange events. As part of its broader strategy, MDJM is collaborating with select European animation studios to develop animated short films that blend Eastern themes with Western artistry. The Company aims to integrate Eastern philosophy with international artistic practices, creating a global cultural ecosystem built on storytelling and immersive experience. This initiative reflects the Company's commitment to furthering its global market expansion and enhancing its cultural business footprint.

LAS VEGAS, March 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026, one of the world's largest construction machinery exhibitions, was held from March 3 to 7 in Las Vegas. Leading Chinese construction machinery manufacturer XCMG has presented a strong exhibition of equipment and integrated solutions tailored for the North American market. CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2026: XCMG’s Full-Scenario Solutions Deliver New Value to Global Customers Themed "Solid XCMG, Steady Progress," XCMG's exhibition went beyond displaying equipment quantity to highlight scenario-based solutions. It presented 35 models tailored for North America, delivering intelligent, integrated solutions for earthmoving, hoisting, aerial work, and mining operations. Excavators and loaders were staged as cohesive systems alongside aerial work platforms and cranes, creating an interactive "micro construction site" that brought XCMG's real‑world capabilities to life. "Since our first batch of 100 rollers entered the North American market in 1990, we have evolved to offer comprehensive solutions spanning cranes, excavators, and mining equipment. We remain committed to serving the engineering and construction needs of the North American region with high-quality products and ongoing industry support," said Zhai Kun, general manager of XCMG Import & Export Co., Ltd. The newly launched PRO series marks a major advancement in XCMG's human‑machine interface capabilities. Integrating intelligent control, parameter customization, visual interfaces, and self‑diagnostics, it makes complex machinery "clear at a glance and precise to control" to achieve both intelligence and operational efficiency. At CONEXPO‑CON/AGG 2026, the PRO series gained strong commercial traction, securing multiple intent orders and on‑site signings with leading North American distributors. From R&D to manufacturing, supply chain to branding, XCMG is building a more resilient, agile, and sustainable global operations network for its customers. Through close collaboration between its North America R&D Center and China headquarters, the company enables round‑the‑clock development, embedding a value‑driven, long‑term sustainability model deep into the local business ecosystem. Today, the company is moving beyond "selling products" to raising the "technological density" of its offerings, providing intelligent, integrated, scenario‑based solutions tailored for the demanding local conditions. "We're no longer just providing cost‑effective tools; we're exporting advanced engineering solutions. It's through technology that we earn respect and trust in the global high‑end market," said Zhai. XCMG products now reach over 190 countries and regions, with more than 95% coverage along the Belt and Road. Overseas revenue has climbed to nearly half of total sales, a record high. XCMG's full-value-chain global expansion across products, solutions, and technology continues to strengthen its global competitiveness.
