Turkish Airlines is expected to unveil its all new “Crystal" Business Class suite this month and preparations are underway for a rollout across its entire Boeing 777 fleet - starting in early 2025.
Additionally, ultra-long-range Airbus A350-1000 aircraft, set to commence non-stop flights to Sydney and Melbourne from late 2026, will also feature these private suites.
While there is no confirmation of the exact details, it is expected that these “for Turkish Airlines-only” Crystal suites will feature sliding doors and a raft of high-tech features designed to “elevate the in-flight experience”.
The 1-2-1 layout would accommodate 44 Business Class seats in the Boeing 777, only reducing five seats from the aircraft's previous 2-3-2 layout and eliminating the unfashionable 'middle seat'.
It's expected that Crystal will be progressively installed across the entire Boeing fleet, starting in early 2025, with each aircraft undergoing upgrades for about a week.
From 2026 onwards, Crystal will also be available on Turkish Airlines’ Airbus A350-1000s, catering to their non-stop 17-hour flights between Turkey and Australia.
