Lufthansa will introduce the innovative Allegris seat cabins on its flights to Cape Town from 27 October 2024.
ALLEGRIS CABINS ON AIRBUS A350S
South African travellers will now have the opportunity to experience the luxury and comfort of Lufthansa’s Allegris First and Business Class cabins on flights operated by its Airbus A350 aircraft, between Munich and Cape Town.
In addition, the Airbus A350 will also feature new seats in Premium Economy and Economy Class.
René Koinzack, Lufthansa’s Senior Director Sales Southern & East Africa, Nigeria, and Equatorial Guinea, expressed excitement about this new development.
“We are delighted to bring the Allegris seat cabins to Cape Town only five months after its introduction. This will mark a significant milestone for Lufthansa’s presence in the region. This new offering will enhance the travel experience for our passengers and further solidify Cape Town as a key destination in our network.” Koinzack said.
MUNICH – CAPE TOWN ROUTE
Cape Town is the first African destination to see the introduction of the new seating.
Lufthansa flights featuring Allegris cabins will be available for booking from Cape Town to Munich, showcasing the full range of products and services that the airline has to offer.
That said, more information regarding pricing and benefits for customers will be released closer to the launch date.

When booking Allegris Business Class, travellers can reserve a specific seat initially during the introductory phase free of charge with the classic seat reservation.
This seat will provide all the amenities and comforts of the new product.
Additionally, passengers can choose to upgrade to seats with extra comfort, such as the Business Class Suite, Extra Space Seat, Privacy Seat by the window, and Extra Long Bed, for an additional fee through the seat reservation system.
INCREASED CAPE TOWN FREQUENCIES
Besides its new cabin product, Lufthansa will increase frequencies between Munich and Cape Town from five to seven weekly flights.
Thus, the Lufthansa Group will offer 17 weekly flights as of late October to their hubs in Frankfurt (six weekly), Munich (seven weekly) and four weekly flights with Edelweiss to Zurich.
