I try to stay abreast of anything that makes traveling as a throuple / triad more appealing and dang this new " 3 person suite " from Swiss Airlines sure looks nice! Basically they're selling you the center, 2-person suite along with the single seat across the aisle. Their new Allegris interiors only have one row of First Class suites, so I think the idea is that the aisle space between the two suites is yours. I guess the staff must all be forced to use the aisle between 1K and 1E?  layout of the 3-person suite In all our travels I think the most special moment in the sky was when the BA First purser set up an empty seat so my husband and I could dine together. But like once the meal was done, I was happy to go back to our individual seats and generally not be in each other's way.

Look, I know this isn't a big deal to a lot of people, but as someone in a triad, lemme tell ya... AirBnB's weird refusal to add "bed size" to their search filters has robbed me of weeks of my life. There's been a longstanding campaign by those of us who really need a larger bed to be allowed to search for this amenity, but AirBnB has refused to do so.

It's bizarre.  To be clear, they've not backed down from this position, but they did push out a silly 'experience-centric' update to their desktop website today that includes a 'beds' line in the description summary. It's a small victory, but this saves folks like me from having to click and open every single listing to manually check the bed types when we're looking for a place to stay. I feel like I just got hours of my future life back! UPDATE: this view now ...
