  • United Airlines unveiled new cabins for future Boeing 787 Dreamliner jets.
  • Polaris Studio suites will feature 27-inch screens, and have caviar and Champagne on the menu.
  • Business class will now have sliding privacy doors, and economy has the largest screens of its class.

United Airlines last week unveiled its plans for an all-new cabin, with some huge business-class suites.

The top premium cabin will include two rows of Polaris Studio suites, which have 27-inch 4K screens. Passengers will be able to dine on caviar and sip on Laurent-Perrier Champagne.

Its standard Polaris suites will also be upgraded with the addition of a sliding privacy door and larger 19-inch screens.

Premium-economy seats will feature wireless charging and a built-in reading light for the first time. Even coach is getting an upgrade, with what United says is the largest screens of any economy cabin.

Every cabin will also have access to Bluetooth connectivity to use their own headphones with the in-flight entertainment.

The new suites and upgraded interiors will be available on United's new Boeing 787 Dreamliners, with the first expected to be delivered by the end of the year.

Their first international flights are planned in 2026, from San Francisco to Singapore and London.

Including Polaris Studio suites, business class is set to take up 16 rows with 64 suites in total.

The first rows of each business-class section will be dedicated to Polaris Studio suites.

They come with more space and more amenities and are closer to a traditional first-class suite.

It includes access to the tarmac-transfer program — a chauffeur ride that's ideal for making a connecting flight.

These are 25% larger than the standard Polaris offering.

The central divider can also be lowered to bed height, which could be ideal for friends or couples flying together.

At 19 inches, its 4K OLED touchscreen is smaller than the Studio suites.

Seat choice can also play a role in adding more privacy.
