4K | This is what Premium Economy should be. Loving 8 hrs in Emirates New Premium Economy to Changi

Is Emirates Retrofitted A380 Premium Economy the Best in the World?

In this trip report, join us to explore new Premium Economy with Emirates aboard A380 from Dubai to Singapore. Starting at Concourse B of Dubai International Airport, we explore the luxurious Emirates lounges, indulging in fine dining and exceptional facilities.

Boarding the spacious A380 aircraft, we settle into the Premium Economy cabin, featuring the over-the-top bling décor which – let me assure you, it’s not that bad in real life. It actually has a certain charm and character to it. I just wouldn’t do it in my own home.

Back to the comfortable cushiony seats and state-of-the-art entertainment systems onboard. Despite minor inconveniences like proximity to the galley and tight legroom when the seat in front reclines, the attentive service from the cabin crew made the overall experience simply delightful.

Despite some limitations, such as tight legroom when the seat in front reclines, the attentive service from the cabin crew elevates the experience. From the delicious breakfast offerings to the sustainability-focused amenities kit, Emirates truly exceeds expectations in Premium Economy travel.

Overall, Emirates delivers a fantastic Premium Economy experience, showcasing its commitment to passenger comfort and satisfaction.

We travelled from Dubai to Melbourne a couple of months ago, Premium Economy with Emirates. For a 13/14 hour flight it was extremely comfortable and the staff were excellent. We both thought we could have stayed for at least a couple more hours!

We flew to Dubai on our way to beirut from Sydney & return. Have to say, it's worth the extra cost. Staff wr amazing, nice meals & extremely comfortable premium economy cabin👌

This is an amazing PE product and is rather well-priced. I tried looking at return fares from MEL-LHR and this product on the A380 is a good 30% cheaper than business class on the likes of Air India and China Eastern (both of which, for now, except for lounge access, are not that much better than EK's PE product).

My only gripe remains with the lack of lounge access. I wish it were available for a certain price. I can't justify paying double over an economy fare just for a better seat, while still being subject to the same economy-like ground experience.

Overall, I'd rather cough up the extra points or cash to fly business class on a good airline, or I'd stick to economy. But, if lounge access can be had for a certain price (or if I had status, like you), then I'd certainly pick this PE product.

Thanks for a very nice trip report. Emirates has one of the best PE offerings out there. Only Air New Zealand PE really rivals (and probably beats) it. Video was nicely shot with some great info provided. The music at the begining was a bit much though. Overall very nice. Thanks!

[tedbernstein]

lets be clear on your message... does premium economy get access to the lounge??? If not what is this... and if yes great. Do make your message very very very clear!

[christopherhill]

Does the PE seat along the bulkhead, like your 40A seat, recline as much as the others in PE or is it restricted somewhat by the bulkhead?

[deepalperera]

love your aircraft cabin views as well as the landing footage in Singapore

[aryaansrivastava]

Thank you Nav Sky. This video was what I looked for!

[jgill]

We fly from Singapore to New York, so I will have nearly 24 hours in premium economy! Row 34 and 36

[lucbobillot]

As a true French guy I also dunk croissant or buttered bred in my coffee every morning 👍

[rod_at_adelaide]

Wow so good that you get first class lounge access included in your premium economy

[weibinglee]

If you were flying on Emirates Airlines' premium economy class, how did you get access to their First class lounge???

[oddsandwindsocks]

Im flying soon, do we get drinks and snacks on demand in premium economy on Emirates

[victorytilidie]

Can't wait to do PE from Melbourne-Dubai and back in January 2025! Counting down the days!

[zamonmiah]

Emirates Premium Economy > I have flown Emirates PE on different types of aircraft > 100% NOT worth the extra cost.... the extra cost > there is NO lounge access on either boarding or transit to another emirates connecting flight. There is no complimetary chauffeur you have on the business class. PE Food is ok. The seats are a little wider and a small extra legroom. There is no priority check in with Emirates PE. Flights are expensive at the moment, however my opinion is to travel Economy/business/first class.... That the honest take on PE class flights

[Long_Live_Asir]

Big flaw with the Premium Economy seats is when the person sitting in front of you can move the seat back at you at terrible angle. So much for comfort! 😩

[aryaansrivastava]

Seat cover on the toilet, Tha's because aircraft toilet flush is always Loud as few users can be scared to flush without covering the Lid!
