Air Berlin flottete eine neue 737-800 ein (D-ABKE, msn 37743). Außerdem plant man, zwei weitere Airbus A330-200 von der Konzerntochter LTU zu übernehmen (D- ALPA, msn 403 und D-ALPG, msn 493). Eigner der Jets sind CIT Aerospace bzw. ILFC. Air France führt zum Herbst 2009 auf Langstrecken eine neue Buchungsklasse ein. Die „Premium Voyageur“ liegt zwischen Business- und Economy-Klasse und bietet 22 Sitze, die durch eine Wand von der Economy-Klasse getrennt sind. Ihre Premiere wird die neue Klasse zunächst auf Flügen nach New York JFK, Tokio und Osaka an Bord von Maschinen der Typen Boeing 777, Airbus A340 und Airbus A330 feiern. Die speziell für Air France entworfenen Sitze der „Premium Voyageur“- Buchungsklasse haben ein festes Gehäuse, das die Privatsphäre der Gäste schützt. Der Sitz ist 48 cm breit und die Rückenlehne lässt sich bis zu 123° neigen. Die 10 cm breiten Armlehnen aus Leder gestatten dem Gast, es sich bequem zu machen, ohne seinen Nebenmann zu behindern. Große Beinfreiheit bieten soll der Sitzabstand von 97 cm bieten. Darüber hinaus stehen den Passagieren individuelle Bildschirme mit einer Bilddiagonale von 26 cm zur Verfügung und der Komfort der Business Class mit Reiseset, einer Flasche Wasser, Kopfhörer, einem Feder-Kopfkissen sowie einer Decke aus Schurwolle. Der Mahlzeiten- und Getränke-Service entspricht jedoch dem der Economy Class. Den Gästen werde außerdem eine auf 30 Kilogramm angehobene Freigepäckgrenze und bevorzugtes Einchecken geboten.
