EMIRATES has always been known for its emphasis on luxury, but now the Dubai-based airline is taking extravagance to new heights with the launch of a private jet service.
The good news? You'll never have to play elbow-wars again - only 19 passengers will be able to board the ultra-spacious Airbus A319 aircraft.
The Emirates Executive plane has two main zones - the first is a wide dining and executive lounge area at the front of the plane that can seat up to 12 passengers. It combines a work area and a rest zone, with two large sofas surrounding four tables and two 42 inch TV screens.
The second zone has 10 first class private suites each with a fully-flat seat and a 32 inch screen.
A real show-stopper is the Shower Spa, which includes a floor heating system, marble accents and its posh skincare products.
Emirates spokesman Adnan Kazim said there is growing demand for private jet travel.
“Emirates Executive elevates the high standards and quality of Emirates that our customers have come to expect, with the flexibility and luxury that can only be offered by a private chartered flight,” Kazim said.
“We have seen an increasing demand in the private travel segment, especially in the Middle East and Europe as well as in markets such as India, Russia and China, and with Emirates Executive and the launch of its website, we are looking to tap into this niche market with the high-quality of service and attention to detail associated with Emirates.”
It flies to most locations worldwide and beyond the existing Emirates network.
