While the perks of flying first or business class with Emirates involve incredible comfort, privacy, a substantial menu, fluffy pyjamas and cool amenity kits, there’s more! Here, we help you transform any pointy end Emirates Airbus A380 experience from amazing to extraordinary!

From secret snacks to special snapshots, discover how to make your clients’ journeys even more unforgettable. Buckle up and prepare to learn some sneaky secrets you can share with your clients so they can fly like pros. 

1. Get the personal touch in Dubai’s Business Class

When flying to or from Dubai, make the most of the Emirates Business Class Lounge at Terminal 3, Concourse C. This luxurious lounge isn’t the newest but offers a range of amenities, including an upstairs napping area, charging station, high-speed Wi-Fi, a dining area with various options, and self-serve Moët. One of the standout features is the ability to print custom baggage tags, adding a personal touch to your travel.

2. Sneak into the onboard lounge before takeoff

Before the flight takes off, passengers can sometimes enjoy the ‘inflight’ lounge while waiting at the gate. When the boarding door opens, First and Business Class passengers get a sneak peek of the lounge – it’s like a pre-flight party that sets the mood for the rest of the journey. Keep in mind that this perk depends on flight schedules and lounge availability, passengers most likely to be successful are the ones seated in the back of the Business Class cabin.  

3. The secret password is ‘Polaroid’

You’ve probably asked the crew to take a photo for you before, but did you know that every Emirates A380 onboard lounge has a Polaroid camera? A little-known perk is that you can ask the crew for a Polaroid, and they’ll be happy to capture the moment for you. They do we-fies pretty well too! The photo also comes in a cardboard frame because even though we all love a selfie, nothing beats a physical memento. 

4. Enjoy an exclusive menu 

The lounge menu is different from the rest of the plane. While you can’t bring your regular inflight meal here, the lounge offers a variety of nibbles, sandwiches, and a few staple hot dishes. If you have more of a sweet tooth, take a peek at the fridges under the TV for some delightful treats, fruit and cakes.

5. Get your First Class bubbly sent to the lounge

Both Business and First Class share the A380 inflight lounge, and the bar is stocked with items from the Business Class menu. So if you’re a First Class passenger hanging out at the lounge, let your cabin crew know. They would usually send your preferred choice of bubbly with you and introduce you to the bartender so when you next order at the bar, you can still drink as if you’re in First Class. Now that’s flying in style!
