New Premium Class for American Airlines

American Airlines is to introduce a new intermediate class on its aircraft, called "Main Cabin Extra". This will bring two benefits to business travellers: increased comfort thanks to extra legroom, and priority boarding.

The new intermediate class unveiled on 1er March by American Airlines is to be gradually introduced on all existing and future aircraft, including the next Airbus A321 and A319 ordered by the airline. The first reservations should be available from next spring for flights on 777-300ER aircraft. Passengers will benefit from an extra 10 to 15 cm of legroom. A priority boarding and disembarkation service is also included in the new "Main Cabin Extra" offer, installed in front of the main cabin.
