More comfortable on long haul flights

Austrian Airlines is expanding the Premium Economy Class.

Starting next spring, even more passengers will be able to fly on Austrian Airlines long-haul flights in the Premium Economy Class category. The booking class will be expanded across the entire Boeing 767 fleet from the current 18 seats to 30 seats per aircraft.
In this way, Austrian Airlines wants to offer even more passengers more comfort on long-haul flights. The Premium Economy Class appeals to all those who want a bit more comfort and service on long-haul flights and still want to travel on a price-conscious basis.
The conversion of the Austrian Boeing 767 fleet will be carried out in the first quarter of 2022. With the summer flight schedule of 2022, the three B767 planes, which primarily serve destinations in North America, will fly in the new cabin configuration. The heart of Premium Economy Class is a seat specially made for the Lufthansa Group, which offers passengers more legroom and comfort on their journey compared to Economy Class. In addition, passengers in this travel class can check in two pieces of luggage, each weighing up to 23 kilograms, free of charge and enjoy a culinary pampering program with a three- to four-course menu on board.
