Nobody wishes to be on lengthy flights because of inadequate legroom, having to stay in the same position for long hours, and having to get up often to let other passengers visit the restroom.
But when money is no object, you can opt for first-class airlines. These offer extra legroom and delicious food. Some luxurious airlines go beyond these and offer amenities you’d usually see in five-star hotels.
The most luxurious flights in the world are:
- Qatar Airways
Qatar Airways has a stellar reputation for both short and long-distance flights. Seats tend to sell out as soon as they become available. The cabins are spacious and offer complete privacy.
The seat can be converted into an extra-comfy flatbed that will help you sleep like a baby.
The ward-winning staff addresses all your demands to offer you an ultimate flying experience. You are served delightful dishes made by famous chefs that ply their trade at Michelin-star hotels. The on-demand à la carte menu has dishes that can please most palates. You can visit the lounge for light meals.
You can convert your seating area into a workspace with onboard amenities such as Wi-Fi, laptop power plugs, and USB plugs. Once you’re done with work, you can immerse yourself in any of the thousands of entertainment options. - Emirates
First of all, a personal chauffeur drives you to a first-class cabin at select airports. The airport lounge in Dubai offers you options such as splashing the cash on luxury brands, adding to your wine collection, and catching up on business.
The dining experience is nothing short of the dining experience in a five-star restaurant. You can order anything from a wide range of dishes and drinks and munch on it from your private suite. Thanks to the noise-cancellation headphones, you can enjoy any of the many entertainment options. - Lufthansa
Lufthansa offers a very personal flying experience. Firstly, you enjoy a limousine service on the way to the airport. Then you wait for your flight at an exclusive lounge so that you can avoid the crowd and get some personal space.
The obedient staff is always ready to help you out with anything you need for working, relaxing, or sleeping. You can play around with the ergonomic seat until you find your best position. After you land at the destination, a personal assistant guides you to your hotel.
You can help yourself to Michelin-star standard cuisine. The award-winning wines take your dining experience to a whole new level.
After the meal, you can retire yourself to music, games, TV shows, movies, and other entertainment options. - Singapore Airlines
You’ll get quality rest on the seats covered with full-grain leather and mahogany trimmings. Singapore Airlines lets you reserve your main course a day before flying. This main course is prepared by reputed chefs. Alternatively, you can savor the delicious delicacies that the on-flight restaurant offers. The selection of wines can make your dining a gourmet experience.
The complimentary Wi-Fi lets you stay connected to your social media and enjoy any entertainment options available on the monitor. - Etihad Airways
A chauffeur is allocated to only you so that you can be driven to the airport. You can enjoy diverse cuisine, a feature bar, and a relaxation room. You can then relish scrumptious foods from the à la carte menu. The cordial staff is happy to help you with wines that go well with your food. Once you’re full, you can get some rest in your private room which has sliding doors for privacy. You may also enjoy on-demand movies, TV shows, podcasts, and interactive games with the noise-cancellation headsets while relaxing on the reclining first-class seats that convert to flatbeds.
