British Caledonian we~~~~~~~~~~envrogtyuhv ccie siness ass twas first dits kir~~~~~4 . * r * * r~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1rOW It1S K~~~~~~~~~~~~~~inAo In 1978, British Caledonian invented the Executive cabin on their transatlantic services. And became the first airline to put businessmen and women in a class of their own. Since then, of course, almost every other major airline has followed suit. Business Class has become the norm. British Caledonian, however, are not content to provide the norm. Now that other airlines have finally caught up, were jumping one step ahead again with the arrival of our new Super Executive cabin. Available now on our Middle East, Far East, North American and South American routes. It's Business Class by name, but First Class by nature. It affords complete privacy from other passengers because it is separated with a fixed divider, not a flimsy curtain. The seats are First Class standard. They're wider. They have a 37" pitch for extra legroom. And a 340 recline for more comfort. And there are fewer of them. Seven seats abreast instead of the usual nine, to give everyone a little more office space during the flight. All drinks are complimentary and served in glass, not plastic. Cups, saucers and entree dishes are china. Tablecloths are linen. - The blankets are First Class size and standard. Pillows and headrests are covered in linen, not paper. As soon as you take your seat in Super Executive, with its decor in restft tones of brown, we think you'll agree it's a world apart from other Business Class cabins. And we hope you'll be impressed by the service that goes with it. A service that's talked about around the world. In 1978, we were the first to recognise that business travellers are a special class of people. We've treated them as such ever since.
