Air India, the nation’s flagship airline, has rolled out a sweeping brand transformation, introducing reimagined Business Class, First Class, and Premium Economy suites that set new benchmarks for luxury air travel.
Since joining the Tata Group in early 2022, Air India has undergone a strategic overhaul, including a refreshed brand identity and a record-breaking order for 470 state-of-the-art aircraft to rejuvenate its fleet.
The newly designed Business and First Class cabins are now all-suite, featuring sliding doors for unrivaled privacy and exclusivity.

Air India’s Business Class now boasts an expansive, light-filled cabin designed for discerning travelers. The 1-2-1 suite configuration grants each guest direct aisle access and personal space. Every suite is appointed with a fully flat bed, wireless device charging, a plush ottoman, and an ultra-high-definition touchscreen display. The sophisticated palette of deep grey and aubergine is offset by elegant rose gold and silver highlights, creating an ambiance of contemporary Indian luxury.

Building on the Business Class foundation, Air India’s new First Class elevates the experience with a more spacious suite, a premium entertainment screen, and a signature deep red color scheme. The enhanced ottoman offers even greater comfort, ideal for long-haul journeys.
