In 2018, Emirates launched a new first-class service on a small number of its Boeing 777-300ER aeroplanes. Only initially available on a selection of planes on its fleet, the range expanded in 2019.

It has been praised for its luxury. The cabin won Best First Class at the 2019 TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice awards in April 2019. 

The cabin features a sliding door so travellers are completely enclosed. As the aircraft has a 1-1-1 formation for first class, the inner seats have “windows” that show a live feed from cameras on the exterior of the craft. Passengers in window seats are provided with binoculars so they can watch take-off and landing.

Each suite comes with a luxury toiletries product set, featuring sleep oil and pillow mist. There is also a spritz of Bulgari’s floral woody fragrance – Eau Parfumée au Thé Blanc (white tea fragrance). There is also a fold-up mirror built into the cabin table. 

The cabin also features a magazine rack, selection of drinks and snacks, and a super-wide 32-inch television. Guests are provided with Bowers & Wilkins E1 headphones. 

The tasting menu is available at any time, so guests can choose their own time to dine from a variety of menus. Meals can be ordered via a video intercom service in the cabin. 

The leather seats recline to a zero-gravity position, which Emirates claim removes pressure from passengers’ necks and backs. The seats also recline to a sleeping position, with complimentary slippers, pyjamas and night mask. 

Passengers who fly first class also receive a complimentary Mercedes-Benz chauffeur service and lounge access.
