On May 7, the route between Dubai and London Stansted debuts, making it the third destination in the UK to receive Emirates’ newest products and renovated cabin interiors. Besides London Stansted, the airline also flies the upgraded 777 to Geneva, Brussels, Zurich, Vienna, and Athens. 

The refreshed 777s upgrade the inflight experiences for all passengers, with improved interiors and new design touches, like wood finishes, modern color choices, and unique Ghaf Tree motifs. The airline’s signature Premium Economy cabin offers accessible comfort and luxury, while the Business Class uses a 1-2-1 setup for maximum privacy. That also includes aisle access for every passenger, personal mini-bars, and lie-flat beds. Additionally, some First Class passengers can access new Gamechanger suites, with world-class luxury, enhanced comfort, and a modern design.
