United Airlines’ first class to support wireless charging
United Airlines has introduced a new domestic first class seat that includes a wireless charging station in every arm rest.
The new seat — which also features vegan leather upholstery, 13-inch seatback screens and 18-inch tray tables, Bluetooth connectivity, privacy screens and an ergonomist-designed cushion — debuts on its first 737 this month, and customers will continue to see it rollout this summer.

The airline expects the new seat to be on 200 domestic planes by 2026, including 737 NGs, A321neos and 737 MAXs.
In addition to installing the new seats, United will update existing domestic first class seats on more than 200 planes by 2025. United First seats on select 737, A319 and A320 aircraft will be redesigned with new seat cushions, vegan leather upholstery and winged headrests.
