Any flatbed between european countries?
Every business class that i look for between european countries doesn't have flatbeds. I am making my itinerary for my trip in Europe and please if someone knows which airline or which itinerary has a business class with flatbed in Europe, let me know. Thank you!
P.S. Just in Europe |
Any flatbed between european countries?
I flew from FRA-LHR on BA last year, and they were often using a 767 with a flat-bed business class.

That would have been due to an equipment change. The usual equipment is an A319/320, or a short haul configured 767. OP: Turkish run a few routes with a 777 to and from Istanbul (which is pseudo-Europe I guess), to places like London. Finnair also have a few A330/40 routes from Helsinki to the Canaries and Spain, too. Some of those have lie flats. Europe is a small place and lie flat beds aren't really necessary on most routes. |

Iberia uses their A340 from LHR - MAD; which is long-haul configuration. Flat bed setup.

Do you realise how small Europe is? The distance between many airports is small. Which is why many European aircraft are a narrow body A320 B737 type. And trains are a better option than flying for many cities.
Now, needing a flat bed, of course not. But a proper domestic/regional business class like in North America would be light years better than the half assed product nearly universally offered on the continent now. |

BA at least used to have long-haul configuration between London and Moscow, LHR-DME.

Also, there's some debate as to whether Moscow would be considered Europe. ;) |
I know that.

They still do. I flew CW from LHR to DME a few weeks ago in the 777, However, I've noticed on booking sites that they also operate the A321 on the route, which presumably is configured only for CE.
Also, there's some debate as to whether Moscow would be considered Europe. ;) I believe that 321 is the BA mid haul and therefore flat bed in J. |
Why do you need a flat-bed?
Like the poster asking "Do you realise how small Europe is?" I can't understand why you would want a flat bed when flying within countries in Europe. Most journeys are only between 1 - 4 hours flying.
