British Airways has started the process of retrofitting its Airbus A380 interiors, a project that is long overdue, given the state of these planes. The first A380 is currently getting new cabins installed, and is expected to enter service in the coming months.

While British Airways had already revealed what we can expect from the carrier’s new first class suite (debuting on this plane), the airline has just shared more details of what we can expect on the A380s, including all-new cabins, plus an updated version of the carrier’s business class.

British Airways has today unveiled the new cabins that will be installed on the carrier’s retrofitted Airbus A380s, with a nose-to-tail transformation. The plane will feature redesigned interiors, new seats in every cabin, plus upgrades to the onboard experience.

Here’s how British Airways CEO Sean Doyle describes these updates:

“This is a major milestone for British Airways and the future of our A380 fleet, marking one of the most significant transformations we’ve ever undertaken on any aircraft. We’ve completely reimagined the customer experience, introducing new and updated seats in every cabin, all carefully considered to deliver greater comfort and an elevated customer experience.”

“At the heart of the transformation is our brand-new First suite, but this investment goes far beyond a single cabin. From redesigned interiors and upgraded dining to new amenities and service delivery, every detail has been thoughtfully designed with our customers front and centre, helping them to have a more seamless and memorable experience when they fly with us.”

First, as we’ve already known, British Airways will debut an all-new first class product , featuring proper doors, much improved technology, and plenty of additional storage. This product will debut on the A380, and then the same cabin is expected to be installed on British Airways’ Boeing 777Xs, which will be delivered at some point in 2027 and beyond (probably more likely 2028 or 2040 or never, I dunno).

While I doubt this will be the world’s best first class , it’s still a significant improvement over what the airline currently offers. For what it’s worth, while there was initially talk that first class could move to the upper deck, that’s not the case, and it will in fact be staying on the lower deck.
