  • British Airways’ New Boeing 777 First-Class Suites With Doors: A New Level of Luxury

British Airways Unveils New 777 First-Class Suites With Sliding Doors | Luxury Travel Deals from the USA | PrivyTrips

Nov 26, 2025

British Airways is preparing to launch its upgraded first-class suites on select Boeing 777-300ER aircraft - and for premium travelers booking through PrivyTrips, this marks one of the most exciting improvements in transatlantic luxury travel.

With fully enclosed suites featuring sliding privacy doors, refined design enhancements, and improved comfort features, these cabins elevate first-class to a new standard - offering U.S. travelers unprecedented privacy on routes to Europe and beyond.

At PrivyTrips, where we specialize in Business and First Class fares with savings up to 60%, updates like this are essential: they allow our clients not only to secure the best deals, but to experience the latest and highest-tier cabin products in the world.

A Major Upgrade: British Airways Introduces Sliding Doors in First Class



British Airways confirmed that its upcoming Boeing 777-300ER configuration - known internally as the “77H” variant - will feature redesigned first-class suites equipped with sliding doors

This marks a strategic shift inspired by the success of BA’s Club Suite in business class, which already offers doors and has been well-received by premium travelers, including PrivyTrips clients flying to London, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.

BA stated that it is “applying similar design principles” to its first-class experience, elevating privacy, comfort, and exclusivity to new heights.

Inside the New First-Class Suite



1. Fully Enclosed Suites With Sliding Doors

The most significant change is the addition of sliding privacy doors - creating a quiet, private space ideal for long-haul travelers flying from New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Chicago, or Washington D.C. to London and onward to Europe or Asia.

For PrivyTrips customers, this means that booking BA First on specific 777-300ER flights now delivers an experience closer to an airborne private room.

2. Spacious, Refined, and Modern

The suite design takes cues from BA’s 787 Dreamliner first-class cabin:

  • Tall suite walls (approximately 5 feet), enhancing privacy
  • A 36-inch wide seat converting into a fully flat bed
  • Large 32-inch HD entertainment screen
  • Updated lighting and materials
  • Discreet storage spaces
  • “Buddy dining” option in center seats

These enhancements create an elevated atmosphere that pairs perfectly with the refined service British Airways is known for - and which PrivyTrips passengers consistently seek.

3. Where You’ll Find the New Suites

British Airways is rolling out the new first-class product on its latest deliveries of the Boeing 777-300ER.

Not all BA 777s will receive the upgrade, which makes aircraft selection crucial - something PrivyTrips travel experts handle automatically for clients when booking premium fares.

When you book with us, we ensure (where possible) that you secure:

  • The newest aircraft
  • The latest cabin version
  • The best seat options
  • The most competitive pricing

Why This Matters for PrivyTrips Customers



1. Privacy That Matches the Price Tag

For travelers booking premium fares from the U.S., privacy is one of the top priorities. Sliding doors transform BA First into a true suite - ideal for work, rest, or a quiet dining experience.

2. Better Value When You Book Through PrivyTrips

PrivyTrips specializes in:

  • Business Class and First Class savings up to 60%
  • Exclusive negotiated fares
  • Priority routing through premium hubs like LHR

This means you can experience BA’s newest first-class cabin at a fraction of the normal price.

3. Perfect for Europe, Middle East & Asia Trips

Many of our clients fly routes such as:

  • USA → London → Switzerland
  • USA → London → Germany
  • USA → London → UAE
  • USA → London → Thailand
  • USA → London → South Africa

With the new BA 777 First suites, these journeys become even more comfortable and premium.

Strategic Value in the BA Upgrade

British Airways’ introduction of enclosed first-class suites strengthens its position in the global premium market - especially important on transatlantic routes where BA competes with:

  • Emirates
  • Qatar Airways
  • Lufthansa
  • Air France
  • Swiss
  • Singapore Airlines

With PrivyTrips, customers now gain access to another top-tier first-class experience, giving even more choice when planning luxury international travel.
