HomeGuidesAirlineWhich Airlines Offer Pajamas In Business Class?There are all kinds offeatures that contribute to a great business class experience. While I would hardly consider this to be the most important aspect of a business class flight, some airlinesoffer their passengers pajamas. This can be useful on a couple of levels. For one, pajamas can be helpful for getting comfortable on a flight, and for keeping the set of clothes you board with fresh. Furthermore, since you can keep pajamas, they’re a fun way to remember a great flight, and can also be enjoyed at home, especiallyif you’re an avgeek. While most airlines offer pajamas infirst class, it’s not terribly common to get them inbusiness class. In this post, I want to compile a list of the airlines that offer pajamas in business class. This is the current situation to the best of my knowledge, though if I missed any airlines or I got details wrong about which flights offer them, please do let me know. With that out of the way, here we go, in no particular order…In this post:Qatar Airways business class pajamasAmerican Airlines business class pajamasUnited Airlines business class pajamasQantas business class pajamasVirgin Atlantic business class pajamasEVA Air business class pajamasGulf Air business class pajamasOman Air business class pajamasStarlux Airlines business class pajamasAir Serbia business class pajamasAir India business class pajamasEmirates business class pajamasEtihad business class pajamasSaudia business class pajamasRiyadh Air business class pajamasOther business class pajamas with limitationsBottom lineQatar Airways business class pajamasQatar Airways is known for its incredibleQsuites business class, and I’d guess that the airline probably hands out more pajamas to business class passengers than any other airline. In general, you can expect to be offered pajamas on Qatar Airways when traveling in business class on all long haul flights, and on overnight medium haul flights as well. Qatar Airways has gone through different collaborations over the years, with the most common collaboration being with The White Company. Qatar Airways Qsuites business class pajamasAmerican Airlines business classpassengers receive pajamas on flights to and from East Asia, India, Australia, and New Zealand. More specifically, eligible flights include those to and from Auckland (AKL), Brisbane (BNE), Delhi (DEL), Seoul Incheon (ICN), Shanghai (PVG), Sydney (SYD), Tokyo Haneda (HND), and Tokyo Narita (NRT). The pajamas are from Nest, and come in either size S/M or L/XL. American Airlines business class pajamasUnited Airlines business class pajamasUnited Airlines business class(often referred as “Polaris”) passengers receive pajamas on request on flights of over 14 hours. Let me emphasize that you have to know to ask for these, as they won’t generally be proactively offered by the crew. This is only available on United’s longest flights, like selection flights to Asia, Australia, and Africa. United Airlines business class pajamasQantas business class pajamasQantas business classpassengers receive what might just be my favorite pajamas offered in business class on any airline, as they feature Qantas’ iconic kangaroo logo. These are offered on select long haul flights from Australia, including to the United States, Singapore, London, etc. Qantas business class pajamasVirgin Atlantic business class pajamasVirgin Atlantic business class(often referred as “Upper Class”) passengers also receive complimentary pajamas on all overnight flights. This consists primarily of flights across the Atlantic, but also includes flights to Asia. As someone who loves Virgin Atlantic, I wish they were branded a bit more, but I do find them to be comfortable. Virgin Atlantic business class pajamasEVA Air business class pajamasEVA Air business classpassengers are offered pajamas on long haul flights, including flights to and from the United States and Europe. These are designed in partnership with Jason Wu, and are among the most stylish pajamas offered by any airlines. EVA Air business class pajamasGulf Air business class pajamasGulf Air business classpassengers receive pajamas on all medium haul overnight flights (including from Bahrain to London, Paris, Frankfurt, Singapore, Manila, etc. ), and they’re also sometimes available on request on daytime flights of similar lengths. While it’s nice that these are offered, I have to say that these aren’t otherwise the most exciting pajamas out there. Gulf Air business class pajamasOman Air business class pajamasOman Air business classpassengers can request pajamas on all medium haul overnight flights (including from Muscat to London, Paris, Frankfurt, Bangkok, Manila, etc. ), and they’re also sometimes available on request on daytime flights of similar lengths. I quite like these pajamas, and prefer them to those offered by Gulf Air. Oman Air business class pajamasStarlux Airlines business class pajamasStarlux Airlines business classpassengers receive pajamas on long haul flights (including Los Angeles, Ontario, Phoenix, San Francisco, and Seattle flights). They’re offered proactively, and are among the highest quality pajamas I’ve received in business class. Starlux Airlines business class pajamasAir Serbia business class pajamasAir Serbia business classpassengers receive pajamas on request on overnight long haul flights. Air Serbia has a small long haul network, so this primarily includes flights from Chicago and New York to Belgrade, as well as the carrier’s services to China. Air Serbia business class pajamasAir India business class pajamasAir India business classpassengers receive pajamas on most long haul flights, whether overnight or daytime (truthfully, most long haul flights to and from India are at least sort of overnight). While the airline briefly had Tumi pajamas, they’re now more generic. They’re still comfortable, though it would be fun if they had a bit more branding. Air India business class pajamasEmirates business class pajamasEmirates business classpassengers proactively receive pajamas on flights of over nine hours. In some cases, these are offered on shorter “direct” flights that are part of a longer overall journey, like from New York to Milan. This custom loungewear consists of a relaxed cowl neck top and drawstring pants, and is available in two sizes. Emirates business class pajamasEtihad business class pajamasEtihad business classpassengers receive pajamas on flights of over nine hours. These are offered in partnership with Giorgio Armani, and are part of an overall soft product investment from the airline. Etihad business class pajamasSaudia business class pajamasSaudia business classpassengers receive pajamas on select medium and long haul flights, and they’re very comfortable. There is a bit of inconsistency when it comes to the flights on which they’re offered, though, as there doesn’t necessarily seem to be some exact cutoff for flight length. For example, I was offered them on a recent daytime flight from Europe to Jeddah, while I’ve heard of people not getting them on longer overnight flights from Jeddah to parts of Asia. Saudia business class pajamasRiyadh Air business class pajamasRiyadh Air business classpassengers receive pajamas on the carrier’s medium and long haul flights. The pajamas are in collaboration with Saudi brand Kayanee, and are super comfortable and cool-looking. Riyadh Air business class pajamasOther business class pajamas with limitationsThe above are the airlines that most consistently offer pajamas in business class. However, there are some other airlines that offer pajamas, but with more limitations (like flying in a “business class plus” product).

While there are lots of amazing business class products out there, not that many airlines offer pajamas. Furthermore, even on the airlines that do offer them, some only provide them on request, so it helps to know what to expect. What are your favorite airline pajamas you’ve received?
