“Each seat has been designed to offer privacy, comfort and space – a place where we know our customers enjoy to work, rest and play.

“We are delighted to introduce it on our London-Singapore-Sydney route which is our longest route across the network.

“We have worked hard to ensure that every aspect of our First and the Club World experience exudes the very best in British style and the quality that our customers expect from us.

“We hope that as more customers have the chance to experience it, they’ll enjoy travelling in it as much as we’ve enjoyed designing it,” he said.

The airline’s sophisticated Club Suite was initially launched in 2019 on British Airways’ first A350 aircraft and since then has been installed on the Boeing 787-10 aircraft.

British Airways is continuing with the roll out of its newest business class seat, Club Suite, as it continues to retrofit the seat across its Boeing 777 fleet.

Customers in lounges can also continue to order food using their mobile device directly to their table, an initiative introduced by British Airways during the Covid pandemic which it has decided to keep.
