Emirates

Emirates is the multi-award winning airline based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates operating a comprehensive route network covering Mid East, Europe, Asia, Oceania, the Americas and Africa.

Emirates flights

Emirates is the long haul carrier which sets the standard for in-flight service. It is owned by the Government of Dubai and since its launch in 1985 has grown into probably the most renowned airline in the world. It dominates the world class airport Dubai International where it hold over 50% of the slots and flies to over 90 cities in 60 countries worldwide. Worth mentioning is Emirates First Class product which is described thus: “The facilities onboard Emirates’ First Class varies by aircraft.

Emirates Luxury

On Airbus A340-500 flights, First Class passengers can enjoy one of the most luxurious flying experiences in the world. Full suites, complete with closing doors to ensure privacy, envelop the passenger with luxury from the start. A mini-bar, coat rack and ample storage all combine to provide a truly memorable flight experience. For complete relaxation, the seat converts into a 6’7" fully-flat bed.”

Emirates Airlines

Emirates LogoEmirates is the Middle East’s largest carrier and that makes it very, very important in this, the first few decades of the 21st Century. The industry and all air passengers are fortunate that Emirates have chosen to fuel (pun intended ..ed) their remarkable growth on the back of exceptional customer service rather low prices (see Ryanair). Emirates is the perfect antidote to those flyers jaded by too may intra European low cost flights and Dubai is an interlining hub to be enjoyed. Alternative Airlines philosophy is all about giving passengers a choice – the problem with choosing Emirates , and believe me you should choose Emirates where ever possible, is that having flown with them once you’ll forever be evaluating how much you’ll pay to fly with them again rather than always choosing the cheapest option !

Emirates have a beautiful fleet of over 100 aircraft. Their fleet is made up of the A380, A340, A330 and the B777. All of their aircraft provide its passengers with the utmost comfort and are offered a very warm welcome by their excellent cabin crew. Emirates fine dining menu’s have been carefully selected and only the very best high quality ingredients are used. Passengers travelling in their

Economy Cabin are offered a choice of main course. Passengers in First Class dine on exquisite cuisine on laid tray table using fine linen, with fresh flowers and all meals are served on bone china. Emirates entertainment systems offer you a selection of TV and audio channels and over 50 video games. You can also follow the progress of your flight with the external cameras that are fitted.
