American Airlines' Refurbished Boeing 777-300ER Set to Debut with Luxe Suites
American Airlines' Boeing 777-300ER will make its grand re-entry on Wednesday evening, sporting an all-new enclosed Flagship Suites cabin and a massive front business-class section.
The plane has been refurbished with 70 lie-flat seats, up from 60 before the makeover. This is the first time AA has brought its new business-class product to one of its existing jets. The aircraft boasts a whopping 114 premium seats, the most on any plane operated by a U.S. airline.
The debut of this revamped plane comes with bittersweet news: Flagship First, American's most exclusive premium seat and the last true international-style first-class product offered by a U.S. airline, is being phased out. Passengers won't find Flagship First on this 777.
