“The upgrade of the premium class seats on our wide-body aircraft is part of our ongoing strategy of upgrading the EL AL product and passenger experience.
After purchasing our 8 new 737-900ER planes, we embarked on a process to fully renew the Business Class and First Class seats on the 747-400 aircraft. We continue to work on providing the best product and the most advanced service for our customers.”
As of the summer 2014 timetable, EL AL's Business Class passengers will enjoy upgraded, pampering 'bed-like' seats on four 747-400 aircraft on the route
to/from New York (JFK).
In addition, EL AL is renewing the First Class seats on its 747-400 fleet and offering customers an intimate, prestigious and redesigned cabin.
EL AL Israel Airlines is the only airline offering First Class on non-stop flights to/from North America.
