DUBAI: Emirates, the world’s largest international airline, celebrates a successful year since the debut of its Premium Economy product in Singapore, having so far carried 26,000 passengers on nearly 730 four-class A380 flights between Singapore and Dubai from June 2023 to May 2024. The airline’s Premium Economy product was especially popular among families and solo travellers from Singapore, with top outbound destinations including London, Dubai, Paris, Barcelona, and New York JFK.
Emirates’ Premium Economy can be experienced on flights EK 354 and EK 355 between Singapore and Dubai, which takes passenger comfort to new heights with an extensive suite of features that transforms the journey itself into a destination.
The Premium Economy cabin is located at the front of the main deck with 56 seats laid out in a 2-4-2 configuration. In the cabin, every inch of space anticipates customer needs with a generous seat pitch and width for working and relaxing, and customised features that offer function and convenience like in-seat charging points and a side cocktail table. The experience is rounded off with expertly curated in-flight amenities, an inventive menu, and extensive beverage options, including the Chandon Vintage Brut 2016, a global exclusive to Emirates Premium Economy passengers.
Rashed Alfajeer, Emirates’ Manager for Singapore & Brunei, said: “We are delighted to commemorate the first anniversary of the launch of Emirates’ Premium Economy in Singapore which serves as the ideal middle ground between Economy Class and Business Class, offering travellers a more cost-effective choice for comfort and luxury in the sky. So far, customers from Singapore have loved the product and shown great interest in it. Demand and seat load are both highly positive. We are committed to offering our passengers the distinctive Emirates experience whenever they fly with us, and will continue innovating to provide customer-centric, future-forward services.”
The product is currently deployed to 16 destinations worldwide, including London Heathrow, New York JFK, Houston, Melbourne, Tokyo Narita, Osaka and Sao Paolo.
