Improved Business Class Cabins

Virgin Australia Created an All-New Business Class Experience

Virgin Australia has introduced a new business class cabin that is even more spacious for airline guests.

While people once thought that first-class cabins were the epitome of luxury, the Virgin Australia business class cabins certainly rival that notion. The cabin has new features including 37 individual private seats, increased privacy, 18-inch high-definition touchscreen entertainment stations and a bed that lies completely flat that is of the same length as queen-sized beds. The cabin also provides ample storage and features its own swanky bar where guests can enjoy snacks and alcoholic drinks.

Adding a new perspective to business class, the design of this cabin's layout takes into account space and efficiency and as a result, maximizes comfort for airline guests.
