American Airlines has just announced they're beginning installation of their "Next Generation Business Class Product" on the new 777's. Those able to cajole their companies into paying for the upgraded seats will get:
- ergo power seating with 5-way motors- "lie-flat" seating that transforms into a 76-inch bed- privacy dividers- multiple interlocking tray tables (the Business Class version of building a fort with couch cushions)- "move-forward" seats that slide forward 10 inches, so you don't have to converse with the guy next to you- Bose noise-canceling headphones- tilting LCD monitor- power ports
and last but not least,
- that curtain separating you from the peanut-eating philistines in steerage.
The "Flagship" passengers in First Class will get all of the above, plus swiveling seats and personal sat-phones. AA expects to have the installations sewed up by late 2007.
