United Business Class to India


Let's be quick about this before United pulls the space. There's wide open space to both Delhi but it's only bookable with United. I would move quickly if you think you might want to book. This is highly unusual for United.

It's possible to include a connecting flights from a bunch of US airports.

Shoutout to Paraj Raja for finding the space (h/t: findflightsforme)

Now, let's get into the details.

Flight Experience


On these routes, the business class cabin will be arranged in a 1-2-1 layout so each seat will have direct aisle access and is lie-flat. Personally, I prefer United's food and beverage offering in their Polaris Lounges to the inflight options so I'd make time for a meal.
