The new interiors will be found on their long-haul flights.

All three cabins – economy, premium economy and business class – will be updated.

More is to be revealed at a later date, regarding what to expect from the new ones.

The airline’s CEO Dorothea von Boxberg said: “The multi-million investment in cabin interior allows us to offer our customers an even more premium experience.

“This is a moment of pride for everyone at Brussels Airlines.

Currently, Brussels Airlines has flights from a number of London airports, as well as Manchester, Bristol and Newcastle

The cheapest fares are found from Edinburgh Airport, with trips to Brussels from £112 each way.

The airline has also won a number of awards this year, including Europe’s Leading Airline Lounge at the World Travel Awards.

It’s not just Brussel Airlines updating their aircraft fleet.

Emirates has added Premium Economy to their flights, rolling it out across their plans since 2022.

And earlier this year, British Airways revealed its huge £7billion makeover.

This includes revamped seats with larger overhead lockers and charging ports.

A new First Suite will also be launched on flights between the UK and US.

And both the website and app are also being updated, with select passengers currently trialling it out.
