First Class Privacy and Comfort Redefined
Each United First seat features vegan leather upholstery. You’ll have your own personal space with an awesome 11 x 19-inch divider, winged headrests, and tray tables that slide out from the armrests.
United is planning to upgrade the first class seats on over 200 planes by 2025. They’re bringing in new seat cushions, more of that luxurious vegan leather, and winged headrests for extra coziness.
Collaborative Innovation
The United First seat design is the result of a collaboration between United’s engineering and inflight teams, biomechanics researcher Dr. Matthew Reed from the University of Michigan, and the design firm Priestman Goode.
This revamp is a major update to United’s domestic first class seat, proving that they’re in touch with what modern travelers want and determined to go above and beyond their customers’ expectations.
