Airline overview
Juneyao Airlines is a privately-owned Chinese carrier, a Star Alliance Connecting Partner (since 2017, not a full member) flying an all-787-9 widebody fleet (10 aircraft, the airline's only widebody type) from Shanghai to 99 destinations including long-haul routes to Europe and Australia. The Thompson Aero Vantage XL business seat is a genuine 1-2-1 lie-flat product, and the Michelin-inspired dining programme is a real differentiator from other Chinese carriers.
Founded in 2005, Juneyao Airlines is headquartered in China and operates to 99+ destinations across 80+ countries. The fleet is built around Boeing 787-9 for long-haul operations, with additional narrowbody types on regional routes. Juneyao Airlines operates independently of major global alliances, with select bilateral partnerships for codesharing.
The business class experience
Business Class features Thompson Aero Vantage XL, leather, 1-2-1, direct aisle access (787-9). Seat width is 21 inches and fully extended bed length is 78 inches — comfortable for passengers up to about 6'3" (190cm) to sleep fully flat. The seat layout on Juneyao Airlines's long-haul widebody aircraft typically offers direct aisle access for every business class passenger, so you never have to climb over a seatmate.
In-flight entertainment is delivered via Seatback 18-inch HD touchscreen. Dining on Juneyao Airlines: Chinese and Western cuisine, Michelin-inspired dining. Baggage allowance in business class: 2 × 32kg checked. All flights include amenity kits, premium bedding, and priority boarding/baggage handling.
Lounges and ground experience
At the home hub: Juneyao Air Lounge (PVG, SHA). At other airports worldwide: Star Alliance lounges as connecting partner. Lounge access is included with your business class ticket — you show your boarding pass at the lounge entrance and receive food, drinks, WiFi, and dedicated workspaces until boarding time.
On the ground at departure, Juneyao Airlines business class passengers get dedicated check-in counters, fast-track security lanes where available, and priority boarding. At arrival, baggage is tagged with priority labels and comes out first — typically saving 15-30 minutes versus economy on heavily-loaded flights.
What travelers say
“Widely considered one of China's stronger under-the-radar carriers. The 787's Thompson Vantage XL seat is genuinely excellent, not just marketing language. Michelin-influenced dining stands out from the crowd. Star Alliance Connecting Partner status gives useful (if not full-member) lounge access. A strong alternative to the "big three" Chinese state carriers.”
