We are happy to announce that Emirates has just launched a premium economy cabin on its newest Airbus A380. The aircraft had its final fit out completed at the end of December 2020 and is expected to be flying with the fleet in January 2021. Famed for always providing a high quality and luxurious service, these new specifications raise the bar to the next level, even for Emirates!
"The Emirates A380 is already one of the most sought-after travel experiences in the skies, and now we've made it even better," said Sir Tim Clark, president of Emirates Airline.
When and where can we fly in this new class?
Five other A380 aircrafts are scheduled to follow suit with these new specifications throughout 2021 and 2022, as well as several Boeing 777X planes that are due to join the fleet in 2023. Talk of further possible retro fit outs to existing planes within the fleet has been mentioned, and since we can easily expect a successful welcome of this new class of seating, we can anticipate more updates on this shortly.
It is yet to be confirmed exactly which routes the new planes will be flying on and it is suspected that to begin with the newest A380 will be likely placed on various routes around the world to give as many customers as possible the chance to experience Emirates’ latest offerings. Other noticeable upgrades will include a 6-way adjustable ergonomically designed headrest, calf and footrest in economy as well as a 13.3-inch TV screen, which is the largest standard in its class. The famous first-class shower spa has been decked out with upgraded modern fittings and refreshed design and the first-class bar has also been spruced up with a fresh colour scheme.
