Upgrade Your Coach Seat to a BED on Air New Zealand

October 23, 2009 | Posted in: Passengers, seats

Saw this on Upgrade: Travel Better. Nice.

If you have a spare $150 and you’re traveling in coach on a long-haul flight with Air New Zealand, you may be able to snag an angled flat bed seat.

Couple of big “ifs” – the seat next to you would have to be unoccupied – and that means you wouldn’t be guaranteed this perk at booking – and it likely won’t be available until next spring.

But still, what a way to travel – for very little extra money. We’ll keep our eye on this story, and provide further details when they’re available.

    Most likely it will work the same way you can now buy a 2nd seat on Air NZ. These are available only at check in, and subject to availability of course.

    If you want to guarantee a better seat then you need to book into premium economy or business class.
