Emirates to Extend Premium Economy Service to Both Dublin-Dubai Daily Flights from December

Emirates has confirmed that following the introduction of its first Premium Economy service from Dublin in June, that from December both of the airline’s daily flights between Dublin and Dubai will feature its upgraded Boeing 777 cabins.

Emirates will also introduce a slew of Boeing 777 and Airbus A380 aircraft with refreshed interiors to eight more cities in the coming months. The airline will roll out its refurbished A380s to Bangkok, Hong Kong, Nice and Perth, and its upgraded Boeing 777s to Madrid, Kuala Lumpur, Phuket and Frankfurt, alongside the additional retrofitted Boeing 777 service to Dublin.

By the end of 2025, Emirates expects to receive 5 A350 aircraft earmarked to serve long-haul missions, featuring 32 lie-flat Business Class seats in a 1-2-1 configuration, 28 seats in Premium Economy, and 238 generously pitched Economy Class seats.

Adnan Kazim, Emirates’ Deputy President and Chief Commercial Officer said: “The latest rollout of refurbished Airbus A380s and Boeing 777s and new A350s offer more opportunities for customers in over 70 dynamic cities and growing economies to enjoy our latest generation premium onboard experience combined with our award-winning service. “The redoubling of our refurbishment programme efforts means that by the end of this year, Emirates will have established itself as one of the pre-eminent industry leaders offering Premium Economy seats. In the next two years, we will definitively cement our position as the industry leader in Premium Economy deployment. The scaling up of our Premium Economy offering strengthens our competitive proposition to travellers and makes it our strategic differentiator by offering them more choice as they increasingly seek premium travel experiences.

“Deploying our first long-range A350 to Adelaide is an exciting development and underscores the importance of Australia as a major eastbound anchor in our network. It also represents our commitment to delivering the best possible long-haul experience on our latest generation aircraft.”
