Airbus A350
Definition: The Airbus A350 is a modern, fuel-efficient wide-body aircraft that features a composite fuselage, improved cabin pressure, wider cabin, and quieter engines, making it one of the most comfortable aircraft for long-haul business class travel.
The A350 is Airbus’s answer to the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, incorporating similar comfort-enhancing technologies including a composite fuselage for higher cabin pressure (6,000ft equivalent), improved humidity, larger windows, and LED mood lighting.
The A350’s extra-wide cabin (the widest in its class) gives airlines more flexibility for business class configurations. This has resulted in some of the best business class products flying today: Qatar Airways Qsuite, Singapore Airlines’ regional business class, Cathay Pacific’s latest business class, and Finnair’s AirLounge business class.
The A350 comes in two main variants: the A350-900 and the larger A350-1000. Both are popular with airlines upgrading their long-haul fleets, and passengers benefit from the modern cabin environment. The A350 is rapidly becoming the default aircraft for premium long-haul routes. BookMyBusinessClass can prioritise A350 services for the best possible cabin experience.
