Kuwait, 30 September 2012: British Airways is launching an exclusive three-day offer for its Club World (business class) customers on flights to the UK for just KWD 747 all inclusive.

Bookings must be made between 30 September and 2 October 2012 and the offer is valid for travel between 29 October 2012 and 30 March 2013. The winter schedule will see a Boeing 747 on the Kuwait-London route, with the refreshed Club World cabin.

Paolo De Renzis, Area Commercial Manager, Middle East and Central Asia, said: "Over the years we have seen an increasing number of customers from Kuwait who are loyal to British Airways. In order to reward them we are launching this special offer to tie in with the capacity increase on the Kuwait-London route this winter, where we will see our Boeing 777 replaced with a larger Boeing 747 aircraft.

"Our Club World cabin is among the best in the world with fully flat beds for every seat. The cabin combines elements from the home and business to create a comfortable environment that provides excellent privacy, good storage, the latest in in-flight entertainment and a Club Kitchen where the customers can help themselves."

The Club World bed lies completely flat and provides greater privacy and comfort and more space. The bed features a 'z' position which supports the knees and the back in a seated recline and can also increase to over 198cm to make sleeping comfortable for a taller person.

The seat is so designed that it has a similar shape to the position a body assumes in zero gravity. The deep recline is perfect for snoozing and lounging and ideal for watching the in-flight entertainment or reading.

"We want our valued customers to be comfortable on long flights," added De Renzis. "With additional privacy due to the cabin being on the upper deck of the Boeing 747, travellers from Kuwait can truly begin their journey in style."

The flights to London Heathrow are well timed for connections beyond the UK, giving passengers ample opportunity to make use of the facilities at the award-winning Terminal 5.
