Dubai-based Emirates has confirmed it will retrofit 105 of its widebody aircraft with premium economy seats. The airline made the announcement at the Dubai Air Show. The rollout, which will see premium economy seats installed across 53 Boeing 777 and 52 Airbus A380 aircraft will be completed by mid-2024.
By mid-2024, Emirates plans to have 111 aircraft featuring premium economy cabins. To date, just six Emirates A380s contain premium economy seats. On the A380s, Emirates will install 56 seats up the front of the main deck in a 2-4-2 configuration. On the Boeing 777s, Emirates will install 24 premium economy seats also in a 2-4-2 configuration. The Boeing 777s will lose five rows of business class seats to accommodate the new cabin.
How will that work? There are only 6 rows in J.
