Personalisation is the name of the game as Germany’s national carrier Lufthansa Airlines unveiled its new Allegris long-haul experience in an elaborate showcase in Berlin on Feb 28 . A suite concept will be introduced in the first and business classes for the first time, with the cream of the crop being the First Class Suite Plus.
Even in the premium economy and economy classes, more comfort can be expected. In the former, the Allegris seat offers slightly more legroom with a 99cm pitch and you can recline without disturbing those directly behind you thanks to the integration of the seat into a hard shell. Economy passengers will also have the option of “neighbour-free” seating by booking free seats next to them or stretch out in the first rows by booking additional seats that offer more legroom.
The Allegris experience, which is part of Lufthansa Group’s €2.5b investment in product and service improvements until 2025, is likely to debut first on North American routes on the Boeing 787-9 by the end of 2023 before being offered on flights to Asia in 2024. It will be rolled out in more than 80 new aircrafts including the Airbus A350 and Boeing 777-9 models as well as the current Boeing 747-8 planes.
