The rollout of a complicated new business class on one of Europe's biggest airlines has been a colossal headache
Briefly

Lufthansa is facing serious setbacks with the rollout of its new Allegris business-class seats. The seats are incompatible with the upper deck of Boeing 747-8 jets due to the aircraft's narrow nose, necessitating a staggered retrofit plan by 2025. Additionally, certification issues are halting the delivery of Allegris-equipped Boeing 787 Dreamliners. As the airline attempts to refresh its fleet and attract higher-paying customers, the inconsistent cabin configurations on its retrofitted 747s may complicate seat assignments for travelers, ultimately overshadowing the intended upgrades and amenities.
Lufthansa's new Allegris business class seats don't fit properly on Boeing 747-8s and face certification issues on the 787, hindering premium revenue growth.
