The United Airlines today unveiled a completely new chair for its Dreamliners, which most travelers see as first -class except for their names.
The Polaris Studios is 25 percent larger than the current Polaris Carrier business class, the largest seat chair in each US airline, and two middle seats are converted to a double bed with a division lowering and a suitable top mattress.
At an event in Brooklyn, United also announced a new version of the current Polaris collection and new seats and new premiums for Dreamliner – which collectively shows what the telecommunications company calls “internal” – with work versions of each of them.
But it was the studio Polaris that caught more attention.
Other new features of the studio include the 27 -inch 4K OLED page (vs. 16 inches for the current business class). Headphones by Meridian; A privacy door; An extra Ottoman chair for companions; New kits of facilities with MD Perricone Products; Amuse-Bouche Oseta Caviar Amuse-Bouche Service, and Rose Rose Laurent-Parr.
Eight studio seats are installed in a 1-2-1 configuration in two rows.
United have not yet released prices, but confirmed that passengers are upgrading from the collection in Polaris.
Competition in the trade class, especially throughout the Atlantic, with British Airways, Virgin Atlantic, Delta and now the American offer them all.
Does United See Polaris Studios as a new product number 1 to travel to the Atlantic Ocean?
Andrew Nusla, Senior Business Manager, said Independent: ‘Completely. We really thought about this carefully.
“How to use the space in the aircraft, how to create more opportunities and make more choices available to customers – and so we found the room for eight large suites – 25 % larger than the standard set, including six of them that can be with the Ottoman seat belt,” he said.
“But we did more than the chair. We put all the other things around it that makes it a great experience.
“We’re really excited about this. We think it’s a game change. It’s a step above what everyone else in the United States does.”
“It’s hard to argue that it is not the best,” said Scott Kirby’s CEO.
Features of the new collection “Dreamliner Dreamliner Polaris” include privacy doors and a larger 4K 19 -inch screen. And all Polaris customers will have access to a new “Grab And-Go” snack bar.
The high -end Premium Economics cabin has a 16 -inch 4K (13 inches), slightly wider seats (20 inches vs. 19 inches), wireless charging pads, and leading leading pillows.
At the same time, the high economy chair has a 13-inch 4K (11-inch) display and slightly room-they are 0.3 inches wider (17.6 inches against 17.3).
All recently ordered Dreamliners will be equipped with interior and StarLink connection, United expects to join the fleet at least 30 until 2027.
Delivery of the first 787-9 787 with altitude interior is forecast before the end of 2025, with the first flights for 2026 from San Francisco to Singapore and San Francisco to London.
