Getting sleep on a long-haul flight can prove challenging, especially when you’re stuck with a limited amount of space in economy class. Fortunately, things don’t have to be this way, even in economy class. Here are some airlines that will actually allow you to book an entire row to sleep on their airplanes.
Air New Zealand
This airline introduced a concept called Skycouch. This means that on long-haul flights, economy-class passengers will receive an opportunity to reserve an entire row for themselves and even adjacent seats. What’s particularly special about Air New Zealand’s Skycouch seats is that they can come with footrests that can be locked at a full 90 degrees, providing you with maximum comfort.
Lufthansa
With its Sleepers Row, Lufthansa allows passengers to book three or four economy seats at a discounted price. This special deal comes with a mattress pad, a special seat belt, and what the airline considers to be its business-class blanket and pillow.
All Nippon Airways
Through its Couchii package, All Nippon Airways provides passengers with seating fitted with special footrests that extend the width of the seat all the way back to the next row. This results in a seat that almost extends out fully to make a flatbed.
