Lufthansa has launched Suite Plus, a premium new First Class offering.
Suite Plus is a separate double cabin with ceiling-high walls and an entirely closable door, a large table and two wide seats that can be combined into a double bed if required.
With this flying private room, Lufthansa says it is setting “a new standard in comfort and individuality within its most sophisticated travel class.”
Guests can warm or cool their nearly one-meter-wide seats in the suite according to their personal needs and connect their own mobile devices 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.
The crew serves a gourmet menu at a time requested by the guests. The meal can be enjoyed in the private suites at the large First Class table, similar to a restaurant.
The First Class will be introduced in 2024, on the newly delivered Airbus A350s as part of “Lufthansa Allegris,” the airline’s new long-haul product.
The company is also improving the overall travel experience for customers in 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.
Jens Ritter, CEO of Lufthansa Airlines, said: “Every guest has their own understanding of premium, which is why we focus on maximum individuality and exclusivity.
“The First Class Suite Plus conveys the feeling of privacy and individuality similar to a hotel room – only at an altitude of eleven kilometres.
“The Allegris range promises individuality, exclusivity, and premium service along the entire travel chain.”
Guests in Lufthansa Business Class can also look forward to their own suite, which offers even more comfort and privacy due to chest-high walls and sliding doors.
Travellers in the first rows can enjoy extended personal space, a monitor up to 27 inches in size and ample storage.
Each suite also offers its own wardrobe and personal minibar. Inside, it is possible to connect the two suites so that business-class guests travelling together can enjoy a large degree of privacy.
The new Premium Economy Class has already been introduced in spring 2022. The Allegris seat offers more legroom, a fold-out leg rest, and can be adjusted even further back than the current model.
Because it will be integrated into a hard shell, adjusting it will have no effect on fellow passengers in the row behind. The table and monitor will always remain in position.
For more comfort, Premium Economy Class passengers will also receive a travel amenity kit made of sustainable materials.
The Lufthansa Group is in the midst of the largest fleet modernization in its corporate history.
By 2030, more than 200 new short- and long-haul aircraft are to be delivered to the Group’s airlines. This will enable the Lufthansa Group to significantly reduce the average CO2 emissions of its fleet.
