Lufthansa Airlines Business Class: What You Need To Know

Key Features of Lufthansa Allegris Business Class

1. Enhanced Seat Choices

The Allegris Business Class cabin is entirely different (not just an update) with five new seat types to meet passenger needs:

Suite in Row 1 – full-length privacy doors, large screens, more storage

Extra Space Seat – additional seat width and desk area

Privacy Window Seat – the seat for self-contained travelers

Extra Long Bed Seat – converts to a 2.20 m (7.2 ft) bed for taller passengers

Classic Lie-Flat Seats – all seats recline completely flat and provide direct aisle access.

These improvements should increase comfort, satisfaction, and sleep quality for passengers on long-haul flights. 

2.  Tech-Enabled Travel

The Allegris cabins include:

  • Wireless charging pads
  • Bluetooth connectivity for personal headphones
  • Heated & cooled seats
  • Personal minibar at each seat
  • 4K entertainment screens

Lufthansa's Business Class will appeal to both business travellers and leisure travellers with this tech-forward experience.

3. Aircraft and Routes with Lufthansa Business Class

The Allegris product is being rolled out on select aircraft from the Lufthansa fleet. The aircraft with Allegris on board include:

Airbus A350-900 – The aircraft are mainly dispatched on selected routes from Lufthansa's Munich hub, with Vancouver and a few other North American airports receiving Lufthansa's service.

Boeing 787 Dreamliner – Mainly launching from Frankfurt.

These aircraft are being gradually rolled out to replace older aircraft configurations for long-haul flights. Make sure to check which aircraft you book so you can have the Allegris experience!

4. Lufthansa Business Class Lounge Access

When flying Lufthansa Business Class, you will be able to access some exclusive lounges at major international airports.

 Lufthansa Business Lounges

Lufthansa’s Business Lounges offer access to exclusive Business Class lounges, including:

  • Gourmet meals and buffets
  • Showers and lounge rooms
  • Quiet areas with Wi-Fi
  • Partner Lounge Access

On routes outside of Germany, Lufthansa uses partner lounges in Star Alliance lounges such as the United Polaris Lounges in the USA, offering high-level service all over the world.

5. In-Flight Dining Experience With Lufthansa Airlines 

Lufthansa offers a multi-course meal service created by chefs from in-flight culinary partnerships and inspired from regions and local flavors. 

 Starters and Mains: Travelers are offered a choice of international selections and seasonal selections. 

 Beverage Service: Champagne, fine wines, and a large variety of spirits are served.

 Midflight Snacks: Passengers will be able to get midflight snacks at all times on long-haul routes.

6. Seating Configurations Across the Fleet

Not every Business Class cabin of  Lufthansa is alike. Here's what you can expect across the entire fleet:

 Airbus A350-900: Current configurations still have a 2-2-2 seating layout. That could change with the Allegris variant and their all-aisle-direct configuration of 1-2-1.

 Boeing 747-8: Huge Business class cabin on both decks. The upper deck is advantageous; it is much quieter and feels more exclusive.

 Boeing 787: The Dreamliner has Business Class seats with direct aisle access and more personal space than the seat Jenny Knox had on a Lufthansa flight to Toronto.

7. Entertainment and Connectivity

Every Business Class seat is outfitted with:

  • High-resolution entertainment screens
