Lufthansa passengers traveling in economy class on select long-haul flights will have the option of booking a Sleeper’s Row at the check-in or at the gate before their flight.

The new offer allows passengers to book an entire row of seats for themselves, consisting of three to four adjacent seats, for the entire duration of the flight, accompanied by a pillow, blanket and mattress topper of business class quality. Passengers are required to wear a special seat belt, which remains fastened even when the passenger is lying down, including separate safety instructions. In addition, passengers who book a Sleeper’s Row can benefit from pre-boarding, allowing them enter the aircraft earlier than other guests.

Lufthansa offers the Sleeper’s Row on long-haul flights of approximately eleven hours or more, with a maximum of three Sleeper’s Rows offered per flight. Reservations in advance are not possible.

Lufthansa tested the Sleeper’s Row on the route Frankfurt – São Paulo – Frankfurt for several weeks at the end of last year, receiving a lot of positive feedback from passengers and was in high demand. According to Lufthansa, the Sleeper’s Row is a further step towards more product diversity in Economy Class to meet passengers’ wishes for more comfort and individuality.
