United's new Relax Row turns into a couch
Business
United Airlines just announced its new Relax Row, economy seats that turn into a couch with adjustable leg rests, aiming to make long-haul flights way more comfortable.
United said it's the first time a US airline is offering this kind of setup.
Relax rows will be placed between economy and premium plus
Starting in 2027, more than 200 Boeing 787s and 777s will get up to 12 Relax Rows each, placed between economy and premium plus.
These rows are perfect for families, couples, or anyone wanting more space.
If you book one, you'll get a mattress pad, blanket, two pillows (and families with kids score a travel kit and plush toy).
Pricing isn't out yet, but United has exclusive rights to this design in North America.
