This week, Lufthansa unveiled its new Allegris first and business-class suites, new premium products available on most of the carrier’s long-haul routes.
The plan is for Lufthansa to offer Allegris on more than 100 new aircraft, including Boeing 787-9s, Airbus A350s, and Boeing 77-9s. It is already being offered on some aircraft, including the latest additions to the Lufthansa fleet, the Boeing 787-9, and four Airbus A350s that were delivered in recent months.
The suites will mark the first time in Lufthansa’s history that it offers onboard suites with nearly ceiling-high walls that can be fully closed for privacy in both first and business class.
The first-class suite features those ceilings plus a seat that can be converted into a bed, along with a wardrobe, a large dining table, and a second seat, which will enable passengers to have dinner with a guest in their suite. The seat and bed always face the direction of the flight, Lufthansa said.
Lufthansa will release more details about the dining experience onboard later but said that “gourmet menus” will be presented to first-class passengers, along with the airline’s signature caviar service.
The business class suites will also feature a lot of those features, including a personal wardrobe and a monitor up to 27 inches that allows for Bluetooth connection to personal devices. All seats in the Lufthansa Business Class of the Allegris generation will have direct access to the aisle.
All business class suites can also be converted into a two-meter-long bed.
