United copies 15-year-old idea for lie-flat seats from foreign airline
"United Airlines will start selling what it calls the Relax Row on long-haul flights, allowing passengers to convert a row of three economy-class seats into a lie-flat bed. The three seats in a Relax Row have adjustable leg rests that fold up at a 90-degree angle to create more room to sleep, stretch out or watch a movie."
"By 2030, United plans to offer Relax Rows on more than 200 of its 787 and 777 wide-bodies, with up to 12 Relax Rows per plane, located in a special section between economy class and Premium Plus."
United Airlines plans to introduce 'Relax Rows' on long-haul flights, converting three economy seats into lie-flat beds. This initiative follows Air New Zealand's Skycouch concept. The Relax Rows will feature adjustable leg rests and are expected to be available next year. By 2030, United aims to have over 200 of its 787 and 777 aircraft equipped with these rows, offering up to 12 Relax Rows per plane. This move marks the first U.S. airline to provide such an option for enhanced passenger comfort.
