The much-anticipated Lufthansa Allegris has finally landed and with it a new, potentially era-defining, level of personalization, luxury, and accessibility for airline passengers. Every cabin class has been overhauled as part of this new product, from Economy Class all the way through to its First Class Suite.
There’s one cabin that really turns heads, however, and that’s Business Class. Here, Lufthansa has gone the extra mile to ensure there’s a seat to satisfy travelers’ every desire. Five types of seats provide passengers with more options than ever before, featuring extra-long legroom, increased privacy, and serious levels of space. Chest-high walls and sliding doors come as standard, providing each option with a suite-like feel and additional comfort. Add to that the ability to highly customize your environment (including seat heating and cooling), a 4K screen, a revamped on-board menu, and more, and Lufthansa Allegris is taking passengers to new heights of air travel. Lufthansa Allegris will continue to roll out on Lufthansa with all long-haul flights due to be upgraded by 2027, and 80 new Allegris-equipped aircraft set to be added to the fleet.

For frequent flyers and once-a-year holidaymakers alike, comfort when flying is paramount in any journey involving air travel. The amount of legroom, privacy, and space can make all the difference in flight, which is why Lufthansa specifically addressed these issues in their upgraded Business Class cabins. Let’s explore each of the new seat options’ primary features.
The Business Class Classic Seat set the tone. Providing guests with direct aisle access, these seats also come with ample storage space and enhanced privacy thanks to a nearly four-foot-tall seat shell. The last row in the cabin consists of two individual window seats and two inner seats that transform into a double seat using a retracting central partition—one of this category’s best assets for those traveling with a companion.

The Business Class Extra Space Seat sits in the center of the cabin and offers more room to work, as well as additional shelves and storage options. This choice is ideal for those wanting more privacy.
For those looking to sleep or simply stretch out, opt for Allegris’ new Business Class Extra Long Bed Seat. While all of Allegris’ Business Class seats are at least six feet, this seat class has a generous seven-foot-long chaise.
