With the delivery of new Airbus A340-600s and A330-300s at the end of this month, Lufthansa will introduce its new Business Class cabin. By the spring of 2006, the carrier’s entire long-haul fleet will be retrofitted with the product. Here’s a rundown of what to expect.
The longest lie-flat seat in Business Class The Lufthansa seat will be six-and-a-half feet long. A foldaway screen will contribute to the feeling of privacy.
More spacious seats The airline says the new Business Class seat offers 25% more space than the current one and includes a built-in massager.
A special compartment for laptops A special laptop compartment will be integrated into the seat down the road. The new seats will have PC power connections, enlarged work tops, and individual reading lamps.
New monitors At 10.4 inches, they will be four times the size of their predecessors.
Upgraded entertainment system The new entertainment system is reported to include video-on-demand and audio-ondemand that will allow passengers to select favorite songs, complete CDs, audio books, and language courses. The airline is also introducing FlyNet, a free broadband Internet news and information portal.
