"The Skynest sleeping pods, a world first, will feature six full-length, lie-flat sleeping areas in the aisle of the Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, enhancing comfort for economy passengers on long flights."
"Passengers will have the option to book a four-hour pod session for an additional fee, with two sessions available per flight, allowing for a more restful travel experience."
"Air New Zealand's chief executive emphasized that for a remote country like New Zealand, the journey is crucial, and improving comfort on long flights is essential for attracting travelers."
Air New Zealand will offer Skynest sleeping pods for economy passengers on its ultra-long-haul flights starting in late 2026. These lie-flat pods will be available for booking from May and will cost NZ$500-600 for a four-hour session. Passengers must still purchase traditional seats for the flight. The pods include fresh bedding, privacy curtains, and earplugs. Guidelines restrict double-bunking and eating snacks. The initiative aims to improve the travel experience for those flying long distances to New Zealand, making it more manageable for travelers.
