Luthansa Reveals Double Bed In First Class
By Geoffrey Thomas Fri Nov 1, 2024
Lufthansa has revealed double beds in its new First Class on its A350s with first services this month.
The luxurious First Class is part of the airline’s total makeover of its long-haul fleet under the name Lufthansa Allegris.
In the process, the company is improving the overall travel experience for customers in all travel classes: Economy, Premium Economy, Business and First Class. "Allegris" is part of the largest product and service overhaul in the Lufthansa Group's history, with a total investment of 2.5 billion euros by 2025.
Lufthansa is expanding its premium First Class offering with the "Suite Plus," a separate double cabin with ceiling-high walls and an entirely closable door, large table and two wide seats that can be combined into a comfortable double bed if required.
The First Class Suite's features are unparalleled anywhere in the world: Guests can warm or cool their nearly one-meter-wide seats in the suite according to their personal needs and connect their own mobile device to the entertainment system. Ample storage space is provided by a suite wardrobe so that travellers can comfortably change and have all their personal belongings at hand.
Highlights of the new First Class (below): Suites with personal wardrobe, large dining table, full-suite-width screens, heated and cooled seats, shoulder sink-in and wireless charging module.
Highlights of the new Business Class (below): Five seat options (including an extra-long bed, greater personal space, or a double seat), heated and cooled seats, shoulder sink-in, wireless charging module, and a personal minibar in the suite. Own devices (mobile devices, wireless headphones) can be connected to the entertainment system via Bluetooth.
New Premium Economy Class (below): Modern seat in hardshell design and with more free space. Greater seat pitch (99 centimetres), wireless charging of mobile devices in the personal centre armrest, and noise-cancelling headphones.
Highlights of the new Economy Class (below): Economy Class with more Living Space (79 centimetres), tablet holders, USB ports and additional comfort in the first rows (86 centimetres seat pitch). Possibility to book a free seat next to you.
More than 80 new aircraft of the Lufthansa Group, such as Boeing 787-9, Airbus A350 and Boeing 777-9, will be equipped with the new long-haul product. The Boeing 747-8s already flying for Lufthansa will also receive the new “Allegris” product.
