Embraer 190 goes Business Class with Virgin Australia

Virgin Australia is to introduce a Business Class on its Embraer E190 fleet later this year.  The re-designed layout is 2+1 with new luxury leather seating creating a superior experience of privacy and comfort for guests.  The cabin will offer just six seats at a 38” pitch with a fixed divider from Economy Class.

Virgin Australia Group Executive of Product and Service, Martin Daley, said that the new layout of the E190 fleet will enable Virgin Australia to cater to market demand for Business Class travel between key cities and regional destinations.

“The upgrade of the Business Class cabin in the E190 fleet will offer both privacy and comfort, whilst maintaining the service and product offering already in place across the network.”

Other features include a personalised service from a dedicated cabin crew member along with one class washroom facilities, Newspapers until noon daily, exclusive Luke Mangan gourmet service, premium Australian wine, beer, and spirit selection.  Priority security screening, boarding and baggage service where available, complimentary access to Virgin Australia airport lounges.  At Sydney Airport there is direct kerbside access into the lounge. www.virginaustralia.com
