Welcome
to Economy
Choose your favourite seat then get comfortable with full-size blankets and plenty of space. Switch on with hours of on-demand entertainment or switch off and enjoy complimentary food and drinks on every flight. Surf or stream with mobile connectivity or stay up to date with live TV and news.
And look forward to an even more thoughtful Economy experience coming soon.
The Airbus A350 is here, and it’s one of the most innovative aircraft in the world.
It’s lighter, greener, smarter and quieter than any other generation Airbus aircraft, expertly designed for comfort and space.
MORE COMFORT AS STANDARD
Pick your favourite spot on board before you fly. Get cosy with full-sized blankets and pillows, reclining seats and even more personal space. Stretch out with extra legroom in Economy Space or keep an entire row to yourself with Economy Neighbour-Free.
Our Economy Smart Seats on long-haul flights have a unique headrest, adjustable back support and generous legroom. On short-haul flights, our new seats have been cleverly designed around your digital devices, with USB charging points and adjustable device holders.
FOOD AND DRINKS ON BOARD
Feeling hungry? Choose from full-of-flavour dishes, your favourite drink and indulgent desert – all inspired by the destinations we fly to. Included in every Economy fare.
We use fresh, healthy ingredients to create our main meals and snacks on board. You’ll always have a choice of dishes, including one vegetarian, or you can request a special meal.
Dietary requirement?
We know that children often prefer simpler food. From fishfingers to pasta, we've created special child friendly meals for you to pre-order. We'll even include a tasty treat to keep little tummies happy.

How can we help?
Landing at the end of 2022, our new Economy experience has been designed with comfort, quality and sustainability in mind.
We’re elevating Economy with design-lead tableware and a new approach to food and drinks. Like using locally sourced, recycled materials wherever possible to make sure we achieve our goal of 80% fewer single-use plastics.
