Twelve airlines have confirmed orders for one or more variants of the 777X, most already operating Airbus A350s. This suggests that many customers might use these aircraft to offer extensive first-class or business-class seating options alongside their A350 fleets.
Most orders are for the 777-9 variant, while development for passenger versions of other models remains paused. Notably, only two out of twelve confirmed customers do not offer a first-class cabin: China Airlines and Ethiopian Airlines.
In terms of luxury offerings, ANA plans minor updates to 'The Suite' on its new planes; Singapore Airlines will introduce a new first-class product; Emirates will include its 'Game Changer' first class; Cathay Pacific plans 'Halo Suites.' Lufthansa's Allegris business class was initially set for introduction with this model but now flies on A350s due to delays.
Emirates intends to implement doors in its business class cabins for added privacy; British Airways plans Club Suites installation along with a new first class; Qatar Airways will introduce an upgraded QSuite product on its deliveries.
While premium economy and economy sections receive less attention than luxury classes regarding innovations like weight reduction or screen size increase remain priorities across generations—Ethiopian Airlines announced Safran Z400 seats in April featuring enhanced knee room and larger screens among other improvements.
