Business Class guests can enjoy generously sized seats that transform easily into lie-flat beds. As well as the greatest comfort, the seats provide direct access to the aisle and ample storage space. In addition, the seats’ raised side panels ensure a high degree of privacy.

The windows, which are among the largest in the entire airline industry, allow even passengers in the middle rows an uninterrupted view of the horizon. Thanks to electronic dimming, passengers can adjust the amount of light coming through the windows to suit their individual preferences, while still enjoying the breathtaking view above the clouds.

An innovative lighting system also awaits passengers on board. It adapts to the body’s clock, depending on the time of day or night, and therefore not only ensures additional well-being on board but has also been proven to help reduce jetlag.

Available for the first time on Austrian Airlines long-haul flights: FlyNet® Internet access with free messaging service in all travel classes.

Of course, Austrian hospitality and cuisine are not neglected either. For example, Do & Co Flying Chefs and the “Viennese coffee house service” provide culinary delights in Business Class. Premium Economy and Economy Class passengers have a choice of different menus.
