From October 26, Emirates will operate its four-class A380s with the new interiors on flights EK903/EK904 between Dubai and Amman. With the upgrade, customers will be able to fly on the airline's latest cabin products on both daily flights to the city.

Customers bound for Muscat will be able to travel on the airline's A350s on its nine weekly flights to the city with the deployment of its A350 on EK862/EK863 every Thursday and Saturday starting October 30.

Combined with the current flights operated with its retrofitted aircraft and A350s, Emirates will offer its Premium Economy seats on more than 635 flights weekly across its network.


By the end of 2025, Emirates expects to offer 2 million Premium Economy seats to 68 cities – 36 of them all-exclusively with the cabin product.


Of the 219 aircraft that Emirates planned for retrofitting, 67 have been completed. The airline is also currently operating 9 A350s to 15 destinations.
