The current 787-8 Dreamliner doesn’t provide first class facilities. However, with an additional 20 feet in length, the 787-9 has space for eight first class seats. The new suites in first class were designed specifically for this aircraft using feedback from existing passengers. The suites feature four enhanced storage areas for the convenience of the passengers, including a new ottoman, a personal suiter, and a locker complete with a mirror.

Passengers can also use the state-of-the-art in-flight entertainment system. The handset has been redesigned and resembles the style and features of a smartphone for ease of use.

The 787s are set to become the driving force behind the airline, with a further 41 expected to be delivered. They are British Airways? most technologically advanced planes, providing style and sophistication as well as a smooth and comfortable environment.
