Lufthansa's decade-old premium cabins are finally getting a refresh — and it looks like the wait was worth it.
The German flag carrier yesterday (16 October) unveiled renderings of its new first-class and business-class products.
Both represent a significant upgrade from the existing offering: First class becomes an enclosed suite with a privacy door, and business class now features industry-standard direct aisle access.
The new onboard product, called "Allegris" by the airline, is actually a nose-to-tail upgrade across all cabins. It will be introduced next year, starting with new delivery Boeing 787-9s and Airbus A350-900s.
The new product will also be found on the carrier's Boeing 777-9s, which will be delivered in 2025 at the earliest. Lufthansa also plans Allegris refits — it specifically mentioned its Boeing 747-8 fleet — and in all will replace 30,000 seats across its fleet.
"We want to set new, unprecedented standards for our guests," Lufthansa CEO Carsten Spohr said in a statement. "The largest investment in premium products in our company's history underpins our claim to continue to be the leading Western premium airline in the future."
