Passengers from the US have been enjoying Emirates’ stunning premium economy product on its Airbus A380 since the start of the month – at least, those flying from New York and San Francisco have. But soon, passengers from more US airports will be able to access this beautiful cabin as the airline looks to expand the product to more routes.
Route expansion
Emirates’ premium economy expansion in the US this summer is set to include four of its busiest routes. The airline already rolled the product out to New York and San Francisco (SFO) earlier this month aboard EK203/204 and EK225/226, respectively. Houston (IAH) will see the new class in June, while premium economy service to Los Angeles (LAX) will begin in July. Each route originates in Dubai and will utilize one of the company’s Airbus A380s, now featuring a refreshed four-class configuration.
Additional expansion of the A380 premium economy product is taking place on routes outside the US as well, including on Emirates’ Dubai to Singapore (SIN) route, which will begin on June 1st. The company says that through its ongoing expansion efforts, its long-haul premium economy product will reach ten destinations globally by the end of 2023.
