Lufthansa Allegris Business Class. Individuality, comfort, and design.

Lufthansa Allegris Business Class: A More Personalized Definition of Travel

In response to the evolving needs of passengers, Lufthansa is introducing a new Business Class as part of its Allegris concept. This innovative approach to long-haul travel reflects a holistic philosophy of design, centered around a personalized passenger experience, ergonomics, and forward-thinking aesthetics.

Five Seat Types – One Goal: Comfort Without Compromise

The new Business Class cabin is the result of collaboration between German airline Lufthansa and London-based design studio Pearson Lloyd. Led by Luke Pearson, the design team approached the project with a future-focused mindset: who is the passenger of tomorrow, and what do they truly expect from air travel? The conclusion was clear – comfort and flexibility must be accessible to everyone, regardless of their reason for travel.

The outcome is five unique seat types, each tailored to individual needs – from intimate suites that can be converted into a two-person space, to the Extra Space Seat offering additional room, all the way to classic seats redesigned with enhanced ergonomics. Every passenger will find their ideal fit – whether traveling alone, with a companion, or on business.

Designing the Future – From Concept to Cabin

The Allegris Business Class cabin maximizes every inch of space to enhance comfort, functionality, and privacy. A key design element was the concept of “cocooning” – offering passengers privacy without full isolation. Thanks to the new seat structures and strategic placement within the cabin, an environment was created that is equally conducive to work and relaxation.

Innovation Serving Ergonomics and Sustainability

Ergonomics played a central role in the project – from bed length to increased legroom and upper body space. Even the ability to comfortably change clothes in the lavatory was considered. All of this was optimized based on passenger feedback and satisfaction research. Lufthansa also ensured a commitment to sustainability – the materials used were carefully selected for durability and long-term use.

With intelligent storage solutions, thoughtfully designed work areas, and an advanced in-flight entertainment system, Allegris Business Class raises the bar for premium travel.

A New Standard on the A350, B787-9, and Soon Also on the B747-8 and B777-9

The new Allegris cabin has been individually adapted to specific long-haul aircraft models – currently available on the Airbus A350. The Boeing B787-9 will follow shortly. This ensures not only a consistent quality of service but also optimized integration tailored to each aircraft – from cabin dimensions to seat layout.
