Not only will this model reduce your flight time, but the business class section offers spacious seats that convert into 6 foot fully flat beds and recently upgraded bedding from The White Company, a luxury lifestyle brand. British Airways’ food and beverage service for business class passengers includes three-course meals, a selection of snacks from their Club Kitchen, available throughout the entire flight, and a range of spirits, wines, and soft drinks. While both the Boeing 777 jet and Boeing 787 jet offer these same services, the Boeing 787 is also renowned for being the most fuel-efficient Boeing aircraft.

Things to do in Pittsburgh
Pittsburgh is known as the city of stone and steal. Throughout the nation’s history, the city was an industrial hub for coal mining and steel production. However, the city has learned to capitalize on these industries in order to transform into a recreational hub as well. After landing from business class flights to Pittsburgh, you’ll be greeted by brick row houses, wide bridges (more than 445 to be exact), and towering skyscrapers. In recent years, many old warehouses have converted into breweries, cafes, and bars. More so, Pittsburgh’s world-renowned hospitals and universities draw in an affluent and young crowd, adding to the city’s burgeoning cultural scene. From football games to Philly Cheese Steaks, the city is home to a wide range of attractions. Consider one of the following after business class flights to Pittsburgh.
Duquesne Incline
For the best views of Pittsburgh, take a ride in a century-old cable car on one of the USA’s few remaining inclines. Originally constructed in 1877, the Duquesne Incline has since been restored to its original glory, showcasing the same wooden cable cars that were used over 100 years ago. A trip to Duquesne Incline includes access to the interior of the incline where you can watch the machinery at work. At the top of the hill, explore a museum centered around Pittsburgh’s history, or peruse a gift shop with Pittsburgh souvenirs, maps, and photos. The Duquesne Incline is a part of the city’s transportation system, meaning visitors pay with the same cash fare system as the city’s busses and trolleys.
Andy Warhol Museum
Andy Warhol was an artist, director, and producer, born and raised in Pittsburgh. The Andy Warhol Museum tells his story through the largest collection of Warhol art in the world. Spread across seven floors and a basement, the Andy Warhol Museum includes a selection of interactive, hands-on exhibits. Try your hand at one of Warhol’s signature art techniques or produce your own short film, inspired by Warhol’s 1960s Screen Tests. The museum also frequently hosts community events, including workshops, discussions, and live performances.
Mattress Factory
A hub for the city’s avant-garde, this contemporary art museum and experimental lab puts on an eclectic mix of exhibitions, from pitch-black sensory deprivation rooms to surreal caricature galleries. Mattress Factory was founded as a place for artists to create site-specific installations. Overtime, it expanded to four residential buildings and has hosted more than 750 artists. In the process, the museum has been at the forefront of Pittsburgh’s North Side community revitalization, rehabilitating nine abandoned properties and stimulating economic growth. With the mission of supporting and sharing alternative art forms, Mattress Factory has become notorious for pushing boundaries.
