Emirates’ Premium Economy extends to new destinations

Emirates has announced that its Premium Economy offering will be introduced to two more points in its network, Brazil's São Paolo from 19 November and Tokyo Narita from 20 December 2023. 

As the airline’s retrofit programme picks up pace and the product extends to more routes on its network, Dubai-São Paolo will become the 13th route to offer Emirates' latest cabin product, which features extra legroom and amenities, and Dubai-Tokyo Narita will be the 14th.

Besides featuring the new Premium Economy seats, Emirates' enhanced A380 aircraft will feature refreshed interiors that provide an elevated experience throughout the other cabins, with a new look and feel.
