It has now been about seven years since Delta introduced its new business class product, so how many of the carriers long haul jets have this product? I wanted to talk about that a bit in this post, so that passengers can get a sense of which product theyll find on which Delta aircraft. What are Delta One Suites in business class like?

Ive gotta be honest, it feels kind of weird to board a narrow body jet on Cathay Pacific, because Im so used to the airline only flying wide body jets pre-pandemic.

The A220 is Airbus’ awesome jet that’s a bit smaller than the Airbus A320-family of aircraft. From a passenger experience standpoint , this is probably the most comfortable narrow body aircraft, given the 2-3 layout, the huge windows, and the wide seats. The plane is fuel efficient and long range.
