This schedule caters to travelers connecting to destinations with large Lebanese populations, including Sydney, Melbourne, New York, and Montreal, ensuring a comfortable journey in Premium Economy.

Flights to Beijing will follow a schedule where EK306 takes off from Dubai at 03:20hrs, landing at 14:45hrs. The return flight, EK307, leaves at 00:40hrs and arrives in Dubai at 05:30hrs, allowing passengers to indulge in Premium Economy on flights to top cities like London, New York, and Riyadh.

The updated four-class Boeing 777 will consist of 260 Economy seats, 24 Premium Economy seats, 40 Business Class seats arranged in a 1-2-1 configuration, and eight First Class Suites, all adorned with modern Ghaf Tree designs, wood finishes, and a stylish color scheme.

Passengers in Premium Economy can anticipate roomy leather seats with excellent recline, adjustable headrests, generous leg and footrests, tasteful wood-finished cocktail tables, 13.3-inch personal screens, in-seat charging, and premium offerings like Chandon Vintage Brut 2017 sparkling wine. Business Class also sees a refresh for improved privacy and comfort, featuring soft champagne leather and ergonomic seating.

These enhancements signal Emirates' dedication to merging luxury with accessibility, ensuring a consistently premium travel experience across its extensive network.
