There are some, but they're very rare. One example is the BA shuttle between London City and New York - only business. I believe there is a French airline doing a "cheap business" Paris-New York as well.



La Compagnie! I really like them the couple times I've flown. For the price it's really great value. Worst part is the NYC airpot 'lounge'

Not the fanciest interior/seat but the food and service were great when I've flown.


Qatar operate a small business only A319 from Doha to London once a day, or did when I took it two years ago. I preferred the a350 and 787 flights which are 1-2-1 rather than 2-2, but for a 7 hour day flight it wasnt too bad. It was half empty though, not a great use of a Heathrow slot.


Also the new Boom supersonic jet is intended to be all business class seats (around 60, IIRC).


I'm not holding my breath for any of these supersonic jet projects to come to market. But, if they do, I expect the nominally "business" or "first" class seating will be more like domestic business today than typical international business class--as was the case with the Concorde.


That’s Boom’s business plan explicitly. Cut down the flight time to a couple of hours and you don’t need to offer a bed, making the per seat cost comparable.

Both are done by BA, and both are stopping.


Singapore Airlines used to have an all business flight to NYC, but it’s been phased out.


It's coming back in 2018 with a A350-900 ULR with only Business and Premium Economy, no Economy seats.
