Wow Air announced updates to its seating and pricing system, including the addition of business class-style seats, increased baggage allowance and priority boarding.

Starting June 1, the Icelandic carrier will launch a new cabin of Big Seats. The seats, offering a 37-inch pitch, will be introduced on the airline’s Airbus A330 aircraft that services long-haul routes between Iceland and the U.S. West Coast.

“We have worked hard to lower the price of airfares across the Atlantic to give more people the opportunity to travel,” said Skuli Mogensen, founder and chief executive officer, Wow Air. “Now we intend on lowering the prices for business by providing many of the same services for a much better price.”

The larger seats will also be available on the airline’s A320 and A321, along with the option to book larger, 32–34-inch or 35–37-inch seats.

The tiered travel bundles will allow travelers to upgrade from the standard service. The bundle options include: Wow Biz, Wow Plus and Wow Basic.

Wow Biz starts at $195, and includes a business class-style seat, a handbag or laptop bag, one carry-on bag, one checked bag, seat reservation, cancelation protection, priority boarding and a free hot meal and drink onboard. The bundle is available beginning March 1.

Wow Plus, from $100, includes an economy seat, a handbag or laptop bag, carry-on bag, a checked bag and cancelation protection.

Wow Basic, staring at $32, includes an economy seat and a personal item that must fit under the seat in front.

Passengers have the opportunity to purchase larger seats as an add-on separate from the Wow Biz bundle. Prices are available using the promotion code WOWSALE and are valid for return trips from London Gatwick (LGW), Bristol (BRS) and Edinburgh (EDI) until June 10.
