Emirates will introduce its flagship A380 to Delhi from 25 October, making the Indian capital the third gateway in the country to be served by the iconic double-decker. The A380 will operate on flights EK512/513 in a four-class configuration, complementing the deployment of Emirates' retrofitted B777 aircraft, also in a four-class layout featuring Premium Economy, across its three other daily flights.
With its highly-acclaimed Premium Economy cabin now available on all flights between Dubai and Delhi, Emirates brings its latest signature product to the route, reaffirming its commitment to elevated comfort for travellers to and from India. The thoughtfully designed cabin features spacious cream leather seats with generous legroom and recline, refined dining served on chinaware, and an extensive suite of amenities. From October, Premium Economy will be offered on flights to six Indian cities: Delhi, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Kolkata and Kochi giving customers traveling to and from India greater choice when planning their travel.
Adnan Kazim, Emirates’ Deputy President and Chief Commercial Officer said: “Emirates' long-standing commitment to India is reflected in the continued rollout of our latest products, designed to enhance the travel experience. We are pleased to introduce our highly anticipated A380 services to Delhi, a vital gateway in our network, from October. Given the strong demand for travel to and from India, it is an honour to expand our A380 footprint in the country, with Delhi joining Mumbai and Bengaluru as our third A380 destination. We would like to thank the authorities for making this possible and value our continued partnership.
“We are also making our Premium Economy product more widely available across India to reach six gateways and close to half of our scheduled weekly flights. A host of other service enhancements are in the pipeline as a testament to our partnership with India and commitment to our customers.”
Elevated experiences await customers in India
In a series of operational enhancements that will elevate the customer experience for its Indian customers, Emirates’ signature Premium Economy cabins will be rolled out to six cities, on a mixed fleet consisting of Airbus A380, Airbus A350 and four-class configured Boeing 777 aircraft.
