American Airlines has introduced the premium Flagship Suite seats on its newly designed Boeing 787-9 aircraft, featuring private seats with privacy doors, personalized storage space, and a unique chaise lounge seating option. The airline’s inaugural international flight offering this experience will take place on June 5 from Chicago to London.
Customers can purchase tickets for select routes starting Monday, including flights from Philadelphia to London and Zurich, and Dallas Fort Worth to Brisbane, Australia. The Flagship Suite service also includes Priority check-in, security, boarding, and baggage handling, as well as access to American’s Flagship lounge with complimentary meals and drinks.
American plans to introduce its Flagship Suite seats on all newly delivered 787-9 aircraft, as well as new Airbus A321XLR aircraft and retrofitted Boeing 777-300ER. The airline expects to grow its lie-flat and Premium Economy seating by 50% by the end of the decade.
The Flagship Suite experience includes a multicourse meal, award-winning wines, luxury skincare items, and a comfy duvet blanket with a refreshing dual-sided pillow. “Every aspect of our new 787-9 is designed to feel premium in nature,” said Heather Garboden, American’s Chief Customer Officer.
