Singapore Airlines has announced a S$2 billion investment in upgrading its long-haul cabins across all seat categories.
The new First, Business, Premium Economy, and Economy class cabins will be introduced on long-haul aircraft from the second half of 2027.
The airline’s 41 retrofitted Airbus A350-900 long-haul aircraft and its new Boeing 777-9 fleet will see the new cabin seats.
The upcoming 777-9 widebody aircraft will feature all of the new First, Business, Premium Economy, and Economy class cabin products.
According to the airline, cabins were designed around “the different ways customers work, dine, relax, and rest on board” based on feedback from more than 5,000 frequent flyers.
The “next generation” Economy and Premium Economy seats feature more space, greater comfort and new entertainment options, said Singapore Airlines.
Customers in Economy class will also receive a collectable pouch containing a selection of travel essentials.
First class passengers will find curved sliding doors for enhanced privacy, companion dining and centre seats that transform into a two-seater sofa for the “largest double bed in the sky”.
In Business class, an adaptable personal space and companion beds aim to provide a “more restful sleep” with smart cabin control that will remember a customer’s preferred seat settings and cotton pyjamas across First and Business class journeys.
Starlink wifi, KrisWorld, an in-flight entertainment system with 4K high-resolution touchscreens and Bluetooth pairing for personal headphones and 100 new meal options across cabins.
The upgrades were announced on 6 November as part of Singapore Airlines’ new elevated end-to-end travel experience.
Lee Lik Hsin, chief commercial officer, Singapore Airlines, said: “While each cabin has been designed individually, they are united by the same ambition to make the experience more comfortable, flexible, and rewarding for our customers.
“Singapore Airlines’ next-generation long-haul cabin products will ensure that our customers travel more comfortably than before, and have greater control over their in-flight experience, whether they are working, dining, relaxing, or resting.”
