 With the biggest seating should go the best service and convenience and Upper Class offers just that. From award-winning entertainment to view on your personal 10.4" wide screen TV to the onboard bar and in flight massage, your Upper Class Suite is a lesson in style and comfort. Ample storage space allows for plenty of books and magazine, a ottoman which doubles as a set is perfect for drinks with a friend or business with a colleague and with a maximum of four Upper Class Suites across the width of the cabin you are assured your own personal space with direct access the aisle - even the window seats.
