International travellers will have more opportunities to enjoy upgraded air travel this winter as Emirates expands its Premium Economy services across Europe. The airline has made its premium cabin available on flights serving 31 out of 41 European and UK destinations, giving passengers more options for comfortable long-distance journeys.
The expansion is part of the airline’s winter 2026–27 schedule, which also includes additional flights to several popular international holiday destinations.
78 Daily Flights Between Dubai and Europe
Emirates plans to operate an average of 78 daily flights between Dubai and Europe during the winter season.
The expanded schedule is designed to improve connectivity for passengers travelling between Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia through Dubai.
More Flights to Popular Holiday Destinations
The airline is adding 31 weekly flights to destinations including:
- Cape Town
- Nairobi
- Phuket
- Hanoi
- Manila
- Tokyo Narita
- Accra
These additional services will provide more travel choices during the busy winter holiday period.
Premium Economy Available at More Airports
Paris Charles de Gaulle became the latest European airport to receive Emirates Premium Economy services.
The upgraded cabin offers more spacious seating, additional legroom, improved dining and enhanced onboard facilities compared with standard Economy Class.
The airline has also modernised 108 aircraft through its multi-billion-dollar refurbishment programme.
What This Means for International Travellers
The expanded winter schedule gives passengers more flexibility when planning overseas holidays and connecting journeys.
Indian travellers flying through Dubai may also benefit from the wider international network, particularly when planning trips to European destinations.
With more upgraded cabins and additional flight services, Emirates is strengthening its international travel offerings for the 2026–27 winter season.
