Qantas raise the height of luxury


Qantas seem determined to take the haul out of long haul. Which is one reason they’re in the process of introducing a whole brand new International Business Class – to give you the sort of flight you’ve previously only ever dreamt about.

It’s all about you

Qantas surveyed frequent travellers, who told them they wanted more personal space, more privacy, more flexible cabin service and a seat that converted to a bed but which was still comfortable when dining or working.

Hence these fantastic initiatives for business class passengers, including the revolutionary new Skybed, a personalised cabin service and a unique lighting system.

The very lap of luxury

The Skybed is different to anything you‘ve ever sat in before. Initially being installed on London to Australia routes, it’s designed to give you the most comfortable range of sleeping positions ever. While you’re awake, you’ll find the incredible cocoon design cuts out cabin noise and along with fold-down privacy screens between the forward-facing seats, it allows you much more peace and privacy.

You can adjust all 6’6” of the Skybed to more positions than you thought possible – and once you’re comfortable, you’ll find a host of other features within easy reach. There’s your personal telephone – a world exclusive with send and receive SMS keeping you fully connected with the outside world. If you need to work, the in-seat PC power outlet is a standard Australian plug fitting so there is no need for expensive laptop converters. Thoughtfully designed storage compartments keep shoes and valuables contained and there’s even an inbuilt back massager to sooth you into restful bliss.

Qantas like to keep you stimulated too: Qantas Total Entertainment – your own personal, award-winning entertainment system – offers 18 channels of video entertainment with new release movies, comedy, sport, documentaries, lifestyle, current affairs, music and even Q Games. All on your very own 10.4” (26.4 cm) TV screen.


Order what you want, when you want it

Our specially trained cabin Business flight attendants offer the ultimate in personal and flexible service. You can eat your meals at a time that suits you. Your only dilemma will be deciding what to have. The extensive menus have been exclusively compiled by leading Australian restaurateur and chef, Neil Perry of Sydney Rockpool fame. They include healthy options, express meals and a full restaurant style, brought to you by hand-picked specialist flight attendants. All this is complimented by fine wines from a range of the new world’s finest vineyards.

The service isn’t just silver, it’s thoughtful too, with room service style overnight breakfast orders to fit in with your sleeping schedule and, if you can bear to tear yourself away from your Skybed, you can help yourself to nightcap or snack at the well-stocked, self-service bar.
