The wooden veneer also continues through the rest of the aircraft, with bulkheads and toilets featuring the same finish.

It’s not a full bar per-se, but still a welcome gathering area in the centre of the business class cabin. Situated in the galley is the ‘Sky Lounge’, an area dedicated to allow business class passengers to meet up pick up a book from their onboard library (lo-fi chic!) and have a drink at the stand-up bar. The entrance way is surrounded by an iconic and instantly recognisable wooden veneer. The entrance way utilises the new ceiling design from Boeing, with flowing arched ceiling panel with mood lighting giving a sense of height.

Let’s start with the business class cabin.Ĭhina Airlines new business class on first impressions is incredibly smart. Whilst it’s easy to pick their new ‘Premium Business Class’ product as the true flagship product on the new aircraft, we are also torn by their brand new premium economy class, which is phenomenal in its own right. There’s nothing quite like that new plane smell… We have to admit, we are blown away by a real quantum leap in their hard-product offering. Last week the airline received their brand new 777-300ER, and we now take a closer look at the final product. A little while ago, we announced China Airlines plans for their Next Generation 777-300ER, and spoke about the radical industry leading product they wanted to create.
