Tickets on sale now for United’s new Polaris Studio suites
Unveiled last May, this new aircraft has been redesigned from nose-to-tail with 99 total premium seats – the highest of percentage among U.S. carriers – and marks the introduction of the airline’s new United Polaris Studio suites.
The United Polaris Studio suites are eight, lie-flat, all-aisle-access seats that are 25% larger than standard United Polaris seats with privacy doors, an extra ottoman seat, exclusive entrée options, an Ossetra caviar amuse-bouche service, new amenity kits with elevated skincare offerings, wireless charging, Bluetooth connectivity, and a huge 27-inch, 4K OLED seatback screen – the largest among U.S. carriers.
The aircraft will take its inaugural international flight for customers from San Francisco to Singapore, UA1, on April 22.
It will launch its second international route from San Francisco to London, UA901, later next month on April 30.
“The new era of premium air travel is coming soon with our first Elevated aircraft taking flight next month,” said United EVP and Chief Commercial Officer, Andrew Nocella.
“Our new aircraft redefines international long-haul flying, providing travellers upgraded amenities and experiences in every cabin.
“We’re constantly pioneering new ways to differentiate our customers’ experience in every seat, and we’re confident they will love it,” he said.
Over the next few weeks, customers may see the plane flying on select domestic routes between San Francisco and Houston as the plane prepares for international service.
