Etihad Airways, the UAE’s national carrier, has redefined luxury travel with the unveiling of its upgraded Business Class Suites for the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. These state-of-the-art cabins are now being rolled out across the expanding Dreamliner fleet, which now numbers over 40 aircraft as of 2025.
The newly designed Business Suite offers an elevated sense of exclusivity, featuring a floor-to-ceiling privacy door and higher suite walls compared to the A350 model, ensuring a sanctuary-like experience at 38,000 feet.
Each of the 32 suites is positioned in a 1-2-1 layout, guaranteeing direct aisle access for every guest. Whether traveling solo or with a companion, the environment is tailored for both privacy and social interaction. The seat transforms into a full-length 78-inch (198 cm) lie-flat bed and boasts a 17.3-inch (44 cm) ultra-high-definition 4K screen, Bluetooth audio support, wireless charging pads, multiple USB-C and AC power points, and generous personal storage compartments.
Passengers enjoy an immersive entertainment experience, with the latest connectivity features allowing personal devices to sync as remote controls. High-speed Wi-Fi, powered by next-generation satellite technology, ensures seamless streaming and connectivity throughout your journey.
Etihad’s exclusive collaboration with Armani/Casa has reached every Business Class cabin, offering bespoke tableware and luxurious linens designed by the renowned Italian house, enhancing every meal and moment onboard.
Three new Boeing 787 Dreamliners, delivered in early 2025, further elevate the airline’s global service offering.
