Deutsche Lufthansa AG said most of the Allegris business-class seats on its new Boeing Co. 787 aircraft are now available for booking, ending months of having to cordon off almost the entire premium section because of delayed certification.

Germany’s flagship airline said all but three of the seats will be available for passengers as of April 15, according to a statement on Monday. Lufthansa currently operates the Dreamliner aircraft with only four out of 28 bookable seats in the section.
