Emirates will be introducing its next-generation Airbus A350, as well as retrofitted Airbus A380S and Boeing 777s featuring Premium Economy, in four cities across the Middle East and Asia. 

The addition of the latest Premium Economy and Business Class seats on more scheduled services to/from Mumbai, Amman, Muscat and, Bahrain means customers will have further opportunities to experience the airline’s highly acclaimed onboard products, and a more consistent experience when connecting through Dubai to destinations also served by the airline’s Airbus A350 and retrofitted Boeing 777 and A380 aircraft. 

Emirates’ enhanced A380s, Boeing 777s and latest A350 aircraft will operate on the following schedules: 

  • Mumbai will receive a retrofitted Boeing 777 on EK504/505 starting 26 October, and customers will have the opportunity to experience the latest cabins on 22 weekly flights.
  • EK903/904 to/from Amman will operate with a four-class A380 with refreshed interiors, including Premium Economy, from 26 October 2025. The upcoming retrofitted aircraft upgrade means customers will experience the latest signature products on both daily services.
  • Starting 30 October, Emirates will offer its signature A350 experience on all nine weekly flights to Muscat with the deployment of the Airbus A350 on its EK862/863 services on Thursday and Saturday.
  • Emirates will also introduce an additional retrofitted Boeing 777 to Bahrain on its EK833/834 services every Thursday from 4 December. The airline will exclusively serve Bahrain with aircraft equipped with signature cabins, featuring Premium Economy and an updated Business Class.

These deployments boost the airline’s Premium Economy cabin offering on more than 635 flights across its network. By winter, the airline will serve 68 cities with aircraft fitted with its Premium Economy product, and 36 of them all-exclusively with the highly acclaimed cabin. 

As demand for premium travel continues to grow, Emirates is strategically expanding its Premium Economy footprint. By the end of 2025, Emirates expects to offer over 2 million Premium Economy seats. Today, Emirates offers over 1.8 million Premium Economy seats across its network.

The airline is rapidly advancing its retrofit program, one of the largest in aviation history, completing aircraft at an average rate of one every three weeks. To date, 67 aircraft have been refurbished, as part of a plan to retrofit 219 aircraft, including a combination of 110 A380S and 109 Boeing 777s. The airline is also currently operating 9 A350S to 15 destinations.
