Eurowings brings Geven Business Class seats to medium-haul routes
Eurowings recliner seats for medium-haul
Eurowings is launching the Premium BIZ seat for longer medium-haul routes this autumn, a refreshed Business Class experience. Eurowings will be installing premium business seats from Italian manufacturer Geven in its A320neo for the first time. With adjustable backrests, ergonomic design and generous upholstery in a two by two arrangement, they offer significantly more comfort and privacy than is usual in today's medium-haul jets, the press release said.
Premium BIZ seat launches on the Berlin-Dubai route
The expanded Business Class offering will celebrate its premiere in November, initially on the non-stop Berlin-Dubai route. The new seat concept will be bookable as of August as a higher-value option within the Eurowings BIZclass. This means that Eurowings will now be offering several comfort zones on these medium-haul routes: In addition to the Premium BIZ Seat (eight seats per aircraft), passengers can also choose between BIZclass (free middle seat and more legroom) and the SMART (optional additional legroom) and BASIC economy fares.
Jens Bischof, CEO of Eurowings, said: “With our new Premium BIZ seat, we offer business travelers and holidaymakers a completely new level of comfort on medium-haul flights. More privacy and a significantly enhanced feel-good atmosphere make longer flights noticeably more pleasant. We are thus setting a new standard in our market segment and clearly positioning Eurowings as Europe's leading value airline.”
The market trials from the 2025 to 2026 winter timetable onwards will also provide other airlines in the Lufthansa Group with important insights for the future configuration of new aircraft fleets. Eurowings itself is currently preparing the most extensive fleet renewal in its history: Beginning in 2027, Germany's largest holiday airline will receive 40 737-8 MAX aircraft.
The new Premium BIZ seat is the first component of a comprehensive product and service campaign. Eurowings passengers can look forward to further innovative offers over the course of the year, which should significantly improve the travel experience for all passengers on short and medium-haul routes – and not just for BIZclass passengers.
