What class includes the Rimowa kit?
 
I have just noticed these and I love amenity kits, I always find a great use for the bags or cases. These look great in the different colors. What class needs to be flown in order to get one of these great cases? Business, first, or premium Economy? Thanks for any input.

Cheers!

Not all the time. At least on TG and LH varies by route and luck of the draw.

+1

One should expect to fly long haul in order to get one, and that include BR. Except for TG certain mid-haul you can get one like PEK/Japan-BKK.

With BR, other than long haul routes, it also need to be operated by a 77W or order to get one, as Rimowa only give out in Royal Laurel on the 77W but not Premium Laurel on 330 or 744.

While both TG and LH has Rimowa now, but that is for now, no guaranteed 6 months or even 3 months from now still have Rimowa or not, as both of them notoriously change kits often.

eBay class works. It's a lot cheaper than taking a flight just for a bag.

BR 77W flight must be at least mediumhaul. No amenity kit on TPE-MPM for example.

BR has to be long haul to US or Europe on the 77W, only TG has Rimowa in F for "certain" mid-haul routes.

I actually considered a cheap Ebay class amenity kit.

This is not new, TG had been doing this for several years now.

As explained in my post above, TG is the only one that would give Rimowa in F for mid-haul, but that still has to be the minimal distance of BKK-Japan or BKK-PEK flights.
