Summary
Air Canada has unveiled its new business-class seats and cabin design, dubbed “Air Canada Signature Class,” which will debut on its Airbus A321XLR this summer and later appear on its Boeing 787-10 jets. The new design features lie-flat seats, larger overhead compartments, and upgraded in-flight entertainment. The airline has also announced plans to overhaul its soft product, including service, food, and amenities, to create a “distinctly Canadian” hospitality experience.

The escape is carefully planned.
Air Canada’s new business-class seats promise a peaceful and relaxing vibe, with gray tones accented by the airline’s signature red, natural wood grain, and bronze metal details. The A321XLR will feature 14 business-class seats in a 1-1 herringbone configuration, while the 787-10 will have 42 Signature Class seats in a 1-2-1, reverse-herringbone layout. The airline’s premium economy will also see a slight redesign with “privacy wings.” And, of course, there’s the obligatory “strong Canadian sense of place” to make you feel like you’re flying with a nation, not just an airline.
