Lufthansa’s first Airbus
A380 equipped with its new Premium Economy class took off this week from
Frankfurt to Houston.
The seating will be
available on all of Lufthansa’s A380 routes by April 22.
Lufthansa’s Premium
Economy passengers get up to 50% more legroom, are greeted with welcome drinks,
get menus for meals that are served on china, and receive “high-end amenity
kits.”
For an extra $26,
Premium Economy passengers can use Lufthansa Business Lounges prior to
departure.
Lufthansa launched its
first Premium Economy service in December on its Boeing 747-8’s and is
gradually rolling it out to the rest of its long-haul fleet.
