In late 2027, Singapore Airlines will roll out a record-breaking first-class double bed as part of its $2 billion cabin overhaul. The beds will appear on the airlines’ retrofitted Airbus A350-900 and new Boeing 777 aircraft in the second half of 2027, offering different ways for customers to work, dine, relax and rest on board.
Singapore Airlines will have the largest double bed installed on a commercial jet, measuring 80 inches long and 60 inches wide when combined from two separate 30-inch-wide seats. Beds will include a duvet, selection of pillows, 100-percent cotton linens and breathable spacer-fabric mattress topper from Paradies.
The separate seats can also function as a two-person sofa, and sliding doors and retractable dividers provide extra privacy. The new first-class suites will also offer personal wardrobes; dedicated dining spaces; and two 32-inch, 4K entertainment screens.
The airline’s cabin overhaul extends beyond first class, too. Business class will receive redesigned seats with sliding privacy doors, as well as smart controls that will remember passengers’ preferred seat positions on future flights and seats that transform into fully lie-flat beds. This cabin will also enjoy sleeper suits for the first time in the airline’s history.
Singapore Airlines’ next-generation KrisWorld in-flight entertainment system will also be added, bringing a more immersive, cinematic and tailored entertainment experience to passengers. The system will include 4K high-resolution touchscreens, OLED displays on selected aircraft, spatial audio, Bluetooth pairing for personal headphones, a redesigned user interface, personalization and wellness features, and thousands of entertainment options.
Starlink-enabled aircraft will allow customers to also stream content and stay in touch with family and friends.
Enhanced in-flight dining and beverage offerings will also comprise part of the overhaul, with more than 100 new and refreshed appetizers, main courses and desserts across all cabin classes. The airline also plans to expand its beverage offerings with new wine and spirits options.
First class, business class and suites will receive custom-designed Christofle serviceware, further elevating the dining experience, and select dishes in suites and first class will be presented with distinctive touches.
New amenity kits will comprise products from brands like SISLEY for suites and first class, BYREDO for business class, and INK & WATER for premium economy. In economy, passengers will enjoy a specially designed collectible pouch with a selection of travel essentials.
