| | | Flight Experience | On their Boeing 767, you’ll find a 1-2-1 staggered cabin layout. Each seat is lie-flat and has direct aisle access. | On their Boeing 777, the cabin arranged in a combo 1-2-1 / 2-2-2 layout. Try to get one of the throne seats if you're traveling solo as it will provide the most space. | Select flights from ORD will be on a Boeing 787 with a 1-2-1 reverse herringbone layout. Personally, I think this is the best Austrian business class. | Austrian excels with DO&CO catering. If you like coffee, make sure you try their Viennese coffee. Save the coffee for breakfast if you want to sleep though. | | How To Search | Search with United: | Select Advanced search Choose to show price in miles Select Roundtrip or One-way Enter the origin & destination Select Nonstop only (if you don't need a connection) Select the number of passengers Select your dates or choose Flexible dates and choose a month Select Business Run the search
