The jet has now been deployed on the carrier’s Manila–Brisbane route, making it the first narrow-body flight to Australia with fully flat seats in business class.
The business-class seats can convert to fully flat two-meter beds.
As part of an ambitious fleet renewal program, Philippine Airlines recently introduced a brand-new Airbus A321neo with business-class seats that convert to fully flat two-meter beds.
The jet has now been deployed on the carrier’s Manila–Brisbane route, making it the first narrow-body flight to Australia with fully flat seats in business class.
20 more A321neos will eventually serve other routes throughout the Asia-Pacific region, and Philippine Airlines will also roll out the A350-900 on its long-haul services to New York in the middle of the year, followed by London.
