Is this the poshest plane seat in the world? New ‘first class’ with digital ceilings, double beds and private bathrooms
AIRBUS has taken travelling in style to a whole new level.
The world’s biggest manufacturer of airliners has revealed its ‘super’ first class suite design and it’s out of this world.
The images of the newly designed first class cabin, provided by Executive Traveller, looks like it’s an actual hotel room, and it’s so big, there are only room for three suites.
The biggest suite is the show-stopping master which is located in the middle.
Airbus says it offers more space than that on the upper deck of an A380 superjumbo.
Inside is a wide double sofa that faces an ottoman which can be used either for dining, or additional seating.
For anyone wanting a drink, you won’t have to go far as the locker next to the sofa can include an optional mini-bar.
There’s a frosted glass panel and behind it is a private wash and changing room.
As the master suite is in the centre, there isn’t a view out of the window – but that isn’t a problem.
Airbus has instead added a huge curved screen around the inside of the suite so you’ll still get the visual of flying through the clouds.
During the evening, guests can convert the sofa into a full-sized double bed.
And with choices of projection on the high-tech screen, you can sleep under the stars.
The new designs were unveiled at Hamburg’s annual Aircraft Interiors Expo under the Airspace brand.
The bespoke design created by Airbus is ready for airlines buying the long-range A350-1000 to add to the front of the plane.
The new designs from Airbus are in a 1-1-1 approach as in the new A350 first class cabins of Lufthansa and Qantas.
The Airbus A350 is set to launch take off for the longest flight ever in the next few years.
Project Sunrise flights will initially fly between Sydney, Australia and London and New York.
It will be the longest flight from Qantas and is expected to take around 19 to 20 hours, making it the world’s longest non-stop flight.
But the aircraft is prepared for such a long journey different zones to provide comfort for every traveller.
The A350 has been designed through medical and scientific research to make sure the flight experience is ultra-luxurious to avoid jet lag.
One of these includes the lighting, which Qantas says will “promote circadian adaption, sleep, and wake,” at different times of the flight.
The aircraft will even have its own dedicated wellbeing zone – which is a first for the airline.
The space is designed to help encourage movement throughout the flight.
It’s open to all passengers in any class and there will be monitors where travellers can find a guide of movements and stretches.
