Lufthansa on board for premium economy

Lufthansa will be expanding its product portfolio, equipping its entire long-haul fleet with Premium Economy. The carrier’s supervisory board has approved the investment capital for the introductory project to achieve this. At the beginning of next year, a project group will be formed to manage the introduction and define the precise features of the product as well as a detailed timetable. Premium Economy will be installed on the entire intercontinental fleet. This substantially upgraded Economy product will fill the gap between the superior Business Class segment, which features a seat that can be converted into a fully flat bed, on one side and the classic Economy Class on the other. This will appeal to both leisure travellers seeking additional comfort and business travellers. Go to http://www.lufthansa.com for more.
