One of the most significant hurdles has been the first class suites. Passengers have reported various issues, including malfunctioning seat mechanisms and limited availability due to retrofit delays. Lufthansa is working to address these issues, but they have impacted the overall reception of the Allegris product.
Another challenge has been the multitude of configurations across the fleet. Different aircraft types have varying seat layouts and features, which can be confusing for passengers trying to understand what to expect on their flight. Lufthansa's website and booking system have been updated to provide clearer information, but the variation remains a point of contention for some travelers.

Implementing the Allegris cabin required significant modifications to Lufthansa's fleet. The redesign involved:
Allegris cabins feature state-of-the-art in-flight entertainment systems, including larger screens and a more extensive selection of movies, TV shows, and music. These systems are designed to keep passengers entertained and engaged throughout long-haul flights.
Lufthansa has also focused on sustainability with the Allegris cabin. This includes using lighter materials to reduce aircraft weight, improve fuel efficiency, and incorporate recyclable and eco-friendly materials in the cabin design.
Lufthansa plans to continue rolling out the Allegris cabin across its fleet, with further expansions expected on additional long-haul routes. The aim is to have a significant portion of its fleet equipped with Allegris by the end of 2025, providing a consistent and upgraded passenger experience on major international routes.
