Air New Zealand’s Skycouch offers travelers the option to transform a row of economy seats into a lie-flat space for added comfort on medium to long-haul flights. This innovative service has been praised as a cost-effective alternative to Premium Economy.
The process is straightforward: during flight booking, passengers can select the Skycouch option at seat selection. This provides access to a row of three seats, suitable for solo travelers, couples, or families seeking extra space. For instance, couples can secure an entire row for $150 each, allowing them to convert it into a couch.
The configuration includes footrests that fold up to create a flat surface and seat extenders provided by Air New Zealand. Additional amenities such as quilts, large pillows, and blankets enhance the experience. Each seat features a 32- inch pitch and six-inch recline.
