The new Qsuite is impressive, and I particularly liked the two-person window suite and personal safe.

Qatar Airways hoped to debut the next generation of its famous Qsuite business class last year — with lockable drawers and two-person window suites — but it still hasn't flown a single passenger. The Doha-based airline unveiled its reinvented Qsuite at the UK's Farnborough Airshow in 2024, promising a new level of luxury for its Boeing 777-9 jets by 2025. The 777-9 is the larger variant of the 777X. But Boeing's new widebody still isn't certified. The 777X is seven years behind its original schedule, while Boeing continues to grapple with safety, quality, production, and supply-chain problems. Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg said at a September Morgan Stanley conference that the 777-9 was still on track for 2027, but an engine issue discovered earlier this year could slightly push the timeline. "I don't see that as a major challenge for us, but we still got a lot in front of us on the flight test program," Ortberg said. "Not done until we're done. "Neither Boeing nor Qatar Airways responded to a request for comment from Business Insider.

I toured Etihad's new first and business cabins coming to future Airbus jets in 2027. These 8 things surprised me most. - Business Insider

As a frequent flyer who often flies in business class on Middle Eastern airlines, I was impressed by Etihad's new first- and business-class cabins. Etihad Airways is bringing a new aircraft to its fleet in 2027, and I got an early look at what its premium seats will be like. At Dubai's annual Arabian Travel Market trade show in September, the UAE airline unveiled mock-ups of the new first- and business-class cabins planned for its future Airbus A330neos. Etihad said the first of 15 new A330neos will enter service in September 2027, serving regional and medium-haul routes from its Abu Dhabi hub. There are just four first-class suites, followed by 24 business class seats. Both cabins have privacy doors, lie-flat seats, 4K screens, Bluetooth connectivity, and wireless charging. It's notable that Etihad is continuing to expand First beyond its flagship Airbus A380s. The choice makes sense, as the post-COVID premium travel boom continues to drive global airline revenue. Sitting inside the future A330neo cabins revealed much about how Etihad maximized space, as well as a few trade-offs that weren't immediately apparent. Here are eight things that stood out most.

Class Action in Rough Halifax Plane Landing Certified in Supreme Court - VOCM

The Supreme Court of Newfoundland and Labrador has certified a class action on behalf of passengers on board Air Canada Flight AC 2259 which landed hard at Halifax in December of 2025 after the plane’s landing gear collapsed. The flight had taken off from St. John’s International earlier that evening, and officials at YYT later confirmed that debris was found on one of its runways after the flight took off. They wouldn’t say at the time whether the discovery was related to the incident at Halifax. The class action names Air Canada, Provincial Aerospace Ltd, St. John’s International Airport Authority and the Halifax International Airport Authority, all of whom have consented to certification. Stephen Barnes of Bob Buckingham Law says they want to understand what went wrong that night and make sure that passengers have an opportunity to be fairly compensated for what they went through. The case will examine whether the defendants met their responsibilities for aircraft safety, runway safety and emergency response, and whether any failures caused injury or loss to passengers.
