Overview
- United announced Relax Row, a three-seat setup in economy that forms a near-flat surface for sleep on long flights.
- Each row adds adjustable leg rests that flip up to create one surface, plus a mattress topper, larger blanket, and extra pillows.
- United plans installation on more than 200 Boeing 777 and 787 jets with up to 12 Relax Rows per aircraft through 2030.
- Pricing and specific routes are not disclosed, and the option will be sold in United Economy but not in Basic Economy.
- The airline casts this as a first for North America, joining global peers like Air New Zealand, Lufthansa, and ANA that already sell similar row-to-bed offers.
