Lufthansa has announced the expansion of its 'Allegris' cabin product to three new U.S. destinations, enhancing passenger experience on flights from Munich Airport. Starting March 30, 2025, the German airline will offer Allegris on routes to San Diego International. This is followed by Newark Liberty International Airport on April 15 and Charlotte in August.

Heiko Reitz, Lufthansa's Chief Customer Officer, commented on the success of the Allegris cabins: "We currently have nine A350-900s with Allegris onboard at Lufthansa, six of which already offer our customers the new, highly exclusive first class. Overall, our new cabin interior is extremely popular with guests, with satisfaction rates in business class of well over 90%."

The addition of these routes nearly doubles the availability of Allegris flights. Previously announced routes include those from Munich to Chicago, San Francisco, and Shanghai starting March 30. The service has been available since November 2024 on flights to Bengaluru.

Reitz expressed enthusiasm about expanding Allegris offerings: "I am delighted that we are offering our guests Lufthansa Allegris on more and more routes. For flights to the USA alone, customers can choose between five destinations from Munich."

Lufthansa's Airbus A350-900s with Allegris are configured in four classes accommodating 267 passengers. Features include a first-class suite and various business class options like the Business Class Suite and Extra Long Bed.

Despite these advancements, Lufthansa faces challenges with delivery delays for Boeing 787-9 aircraft due to regulatory issues concerning seat approval by the United States Federal Aviation Administration.
