The new «Allegris» products will be installed in 80 new-generation aircraft, such as the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, Boeing 777-9 and Airbus A350-900, and the Boeing 747-8i will be upgraded with the company’s new seats. Lufthansa Group will replace more than 27,000 seats in all classes to improve the customer experience.

Part of the global sustainability concept

Lufthansa Group is amid the largest fleet renewal in the company’s history. By 2030, more than 200 new narrowbody and widebody aircraft will be delivered to the group’s airlines. This enables the company to significantly reduce the average carbon dioxide emissions of its fleet.

The designers also focused on sustainability aspects when developing the «Allegris» product. Recyclable materials were used in 27,000 seats, as well as covers, cushions, and blankets. The German Group has set itself ambitious climate protection targets and the goal is to achieve a carbon dioxide-neutral balance by 2050.
