First-class comfort from head to toe

Two iconic German brands team up to provide a sublime inflight entertainment experience

Marlow, November 7, 2024 – The Sennheiser brand and Lufthansa today announce an inflight collaboration that brings the acclaimed MOMENTUM 4 Wireless to the newest Lufthansa Allegris First Class suites.

The sound of the skies

In the coming weeks passengers on select Lufthansa Allegris First Class planes flying from Munich to Bangalore and Mumbai and back will be offered a special Lufthansa-branded edition of MOMENTUM 4 Wireless to use for the duration of the flight. The travel headphones boast remarkable sound, battery life, and first-class comfort. The collaboration aligns with both companies’ commitment to an exceptional customer experience, with more routes to be added in the future.

‘When it comes to providing a luxurious sound experience for the inflight entertainment in Lufthansa Allegris First Class, one brand stood out for us,’ said Kai Peters, Head of Customer Experience Design Lufthansa Group. ‘Sennheiser is a long-established German premium audio brand that produces innovative sound experiences, with excellent reviews from experts and customers. In line with our motto, ‘Truly Like Home’, we are delighted to offer the Sennheiser MOMENTUM 4 headphones in our new First Class suites, as they enhance the flying experience with their excellent sound, comfort and active noise cancellation. Lufthansa is thus one of the first airlines to offer wireless headphones as part of the entertainment experience. Beyond that, the Bluetooth technology on board will also allow passengers in all travel classes to use their own private headphones.’

MOMENTUM 4 is fully equipped to handle intercontinental flights with ease, thanks to relaxing Noise Cancellation and up to 60 hours of battery life per charge. Whether catching up on their favorite shows, crossing a must-see movie off their list, or settling into a curated playlist, the inflight entertainment has never sounded so good.

“We could not have asked for a better partner than Lufthansa,” says Christian Ern, Sennheiser Principal Product Manager, “There is a genuine sense of pride we both get by offering excellence to our customers. Each can take a little piece of innovative technology based on the power of German engineering across the world, which is always a special way to start—or complete—a memorable journey.”

Ready for takeoff

Lufthansa’s new first-class entertainment option will be available soon. With its advanced comfort and performance, MOMENTUM 4 Wireless is equipped to connect to Lufthansa’s Inflight Entertainment system and stream via Bluetooth. Travelers looking for their own upgrade can purchase MOMENTUM 4 Wireless “Lufthansa Edition” in the Lufthansa Inflight Shopping, the Lufthansa First Class Terminal and from the end of November via worldshop.eu. The standard Sennheiser product is available at select retailers and sennheiser-hearing.com.
