Emirates Boeing 777s Premium Economy and Revitalized Business Class Now Available in Zurich, Riyadh, Geneva, and Brussels
Emirates is setting a new standard in luxury travel with the launch of its newly upgraded Boeing 777 aircraft. Starting October 1, 2024, the airline will broaden its horizons by adding Zurich and Riyadh to its enhanced fleet's destinations. This upgrade also marks the debut of revamped Boeing 777 cabins on all routes to Geneva and Brussels.
The introduction of Emirates’ acclaimed Premium Economy and reimagined Business Class on these aircraft is a game-changer. Zurich will see flights EK 85 and EK 86 feature the upgraded Boeing 777, while Riyadh will welcome the Premium Economy class with flights EK 819 and EK 820, marking its first appearance in the Middle East/GCC.
Geneva is set to become the first city to experience both the Premium Economy and refreshed Business Class on all flights starting September 22, 2024, with routes EK 89 and EK 90. Meanwhile, Brussels will join the luxury revolution from October 9, 2024, with six weekly flights on EK 181 and EK 182.
Emirates is also refreshing its A380 models alongside the Boeing 777s, promising a superior in-flight experience across all cabin classes. By the end of the year, the airline aims to extend its Premium Economy service to 28 cities. Currently, 25 aircraft have been upgraded, with 17 more scheduled for retrofitting by December 2024.
The upgraded Boeing 777 features a four-class configuration, including up to eight First Class suites, 38 Business Class seats arranged four-abreast, 24 Premium Economy seats in a 2-4-2 layout, and 256 Economy Class seats.
Emirates is setting new benchmarks in luxury travel with these enhancements, ensuring every journey is a memorable experience of comfort and sophistication.
