Emirates has announced the introduction of its Premium Economy class to Bangkok, following the deployment of a newly retrofitted A380 aircraft on the route. This move extends the airline’s Premium Economy offering to more than 70 cities worldwide.
The Premium Economy cabin is situated at the front of the main deck and features 56 seats in a 2-4-2 configuration. According to Emirates, the cabin is intended to provide an option between Economy and Business Class. The seats offer a 40-inch pitch, 8-inch recline, adjustable headrests, and full leg and footrests. Each seat is upholstered in cream leather and includes fold-out woodgrain tables.
Passengers will have access to a 13.3-inch HD screen for in-flight entertainment, Bluetooth pairing, and other technology features. Meals are served on Royal Doulton China and reflect regional flavors, with an expanded beverage selection that includes vintage wines.
