You thought Emirates First Class was already the peak of posh? Think again. The airline just gave its top-tier travel experience an elegant glow-up. Say hello to new additions like unlimited caviar, private suites, and designer amenity kits. Let’s dig into the chicest way to fly at 40,000 feet.
Premium Services Elevated With A Side of Caviar At Emirates
Emirates knows its First Class guests don’t just eat, they dine. So, they’ve upped the standards with newly designed keepsake menus, dishing out the stories behind each bottle of wine and carefully curated pairing.
And yes, the unlimited caviar ritual remains, but now it’s served in new Emirates-engraved Robert Welch bowls. Fancy much? Pair it with their enhanced artisan cheeseboard served on rustic slate with a wooden honey dipper, because regular plates are clearly passé. All this, served with white gloves. No, really, the crew wears them now.
Down on the ground, Dubai International’s Terminal 3 is getting a First Class Check-In Area revamp, transforming it into a chill, lounge-style space with personalised service. Add global lounge access and chauffeur drives, and your holiday starts before passport control.
Private Suites, Showers, Pyjamas And Bulgari Kits
The real showstopper? Emirates’ private suites that scream “hotel in the sky.” Aboard the A380, you’ll find 14 First Class suites with lie-flat beds, sliding doors, and enough space to sprawl, snack, and Zoom call room service.. Over on the B777 Game Changer aircraft, it gets even flashier! Imagine floor-to-ceiling doors, zero-gravity seats, video calling, and even virtual windows if you’re in the middle.
Need rest? Emirates wraps you up in cotton duvets, faux sheep-skin blankets, and Hydra Active moisturising pyjamas. The tech-packed PJs use vitamin C and olive oil microcapsules. Science just got spa-like. In-suite amenities are just as lavish. Byredo skincare and Bulgari kits feature everything from perfume to pillow mist. And the Bulgari bags? Four designs in rich leather tones, chocolate for the gents, champagne for the ladies. Cheers to that.

Sips, Screens And Showering at 40,000 Feet
Let’s talk beverages. Emirates is still the only airline pouring Dom Pérignon in First Class. Their drinks menu reads like a luxury bar crawl across continents. Think Glenmorangie Signet, Stoli Elit, Hennessy Paradis and more. The wine list includes Grand Cru Burgundy and aged Bordeaux vintages, some ageing until 2037.
And for those moments between sips, Emirates’ 32-inch HD screens and noise-cancelling Bowers & Wilkins headphones deliver top-tier in-flight entertainment. Fancy a shower before landing? The A380’s Shower Spa awaits, fully kitted with Voya organic products, leather seating, heated floors, and orchids. Obviously.
Final Boarding Call
With these swanky new touches, it’s a six-star hotel room with wings, a butler, and a caviar budget.
