The airline collaborates with prominent providers such as HBO Max, Disney+, and Spotify to offer diverse entertainment options. Passengers can pre-select their viewing choices via the Emirates app before boarding. The ice team curates monthly recommendations and special collections for events like Autism Awareness Month.

Emirates ensures family-friendly content by adhering to various international rating systems. It provides over 250 kids' channels and publishes an ice magazine for additional guidance on available content.
