Japan Airlines Business Class
Tokyo, Japan
Japan Airlines gives its Airbus A350-1000 Business Class a notably private layout, with 54 individual seats arranged in a one, two, one configuration. Translucent sliding doors screen each space without making the cabin feel entirely enclosed. A partition between the central seats can be lowered for companions, while window seats offer a more independent setting for solo travellers. The details are designed around the changing rhythm of a long flight. A seat converts into a fully flat bed almost two metres long, with cushioning that distributes body weight. Personal wardrobes and storage for cabin baggage reduce clutter around the seat. Entertainment comes through a 24 inch 4K screen, with speakers built into the headrest, and compatible phones can be charged wirelessly. Communication panels outside the door let passengers signal their preferences to the crew. This is one member of a wider Business Class family. Japan Airlines also operates several Sky Suite designs and other seats on its international aircraft, with different layouts and levels of enclosure. The A350-1000 features should therefore be checked against the flight being booked. Reviewing the aircraft type and seat map is especially helpful when privacy, a fully flat bed or seating together is a priority.
