Lufthansa has received FAA certification for most of its new Boeing 787 Allegris business class seats, allowing 25 of 28 seats to be sold effective immediately

## Summary

Lufthansa's new Boeing 787 Allegris business class seats are now officially certified by the FAA, resolving a months-long issue where most seats were blocked. Previously, only the first-row suites were certified, limiting sellable seats to 4 out of 28. With the new certification, 25 of the 28 business class seats are now available for sale on flights effective immediately. The first flight with the expanded capacity operated on March 15. For the remainder of the winter season through late March 2026, these aircraft will serve Frankfurt (FRA) to Austin (AUS), Bogota (BOG), Hyderabad (HYD), Mumbai (BOM), Rio de Janeiro (GIG), and Toronto (YYZ). Starting late March 2026 for the summer season, routes will expand to include Cape Town (CPT), Hong Kong (HKG), and Shanghai (PVG). The three non-certified seats are located in row two
