Emirates is transforming the First-Class sleep experience with a comprehensive suite of enhancements designed to create serene slumbers above the clouds. Beginning this month, the airline is introducing luxurious loungewear, premium bed linen, and an elegant turndown service to elevate rest and relaxation for its premium passengers.
Luxurious Modal Loungewear Debuts on Long-Haul Flights
Emirates First Class customers on select long-haul flights will now receive new loungewear, slippers, and eye masks crafted from super-soft modal fabric. The collection blends sumptuous comfort with breathability and lightweight ease, incorporating fully traceable botanic fibers sourced from sustainably grown beech trees.
The temperature-regulating two-piece loungewear set features a relaxed top and bottom with a fluid drape, designed for both elegance and comfort – whether enjoying drinks at the A380 Onboard Lounge or settling in for rest within Emirates’ fully enclosed First-Class suites.
The women’s collection is presented in soft blush pink and light grey, while the men’s design features a sophisticated two-tone grey palette. Matching slippers with plush inner soles and eye masks lined with ultra-soft silk-feel fabric complete the ensemble, encouraging uninterrupted rest at altitude.
Premium Bed Linen and Five-Star Turndown Service
From 2026 onwards, Emirates will introduce premium 300-thread-count cotton bed linen, including pillows, duvet covers, and mattress covers. Soft to the touch and impeccably finished, the new bedding complements the airline’s spacious First-Class suites, which feature seats that recline to fully flat beds with automatic doors for complete privacy.
The First-Class turndown service evokes the quiet elegance of a five-star hotel. The ritual includes a beautifully prepared bed with duvet, a bespoke wellness card encouraging relaxation, and BYREDO Chamomile Pillow Mist delicately placed on the duvet fold. Completing the experience, a luxury chocolate from premium chocolatiers including Valrhona, Canonica, Coco Jalila, and Neuhaus is presented on the bed.
Refreshed A380 Shower Spa with VOYA Collection
The iconic Emirates A380 Shower Spa has been refreshed with newly designed display units featuring a refined, speckled stone aesthetic. Each hand-finished piece is unique in tone and texture, reinforcing a wellness-led ambience that complements the color palettes of retrofitted aircraft.
Emirates continues its partnership with luxury Irish skincare brand VOYA, introducing two new fragrance collections. The Tranquillity range, scented with calming lavender and eucalyptus, and the Revitalise collection featuring uplifting honeysuckle and neroli, include shampoo, conditioner, body wash, body moisturizer, and face wash. Coconut and jasmine soap, along with pump hand wash and hand cream, complete the shower spa experience. Individual hand creams are also available in First and Business Class washrooms.
Crystal Glassware and Next-Generation Headphones
New crystal-cut glassware has been introduced to complement Emirates’ existing First-Class dining collection. The elegant glassware is used to present select spirits, premium cocktails, mocktails, and iced coffees, including newly introduced iced café latte and iced Americano. A new brandy balloon glass will be used to present Emirates’ exclusive Hennessy Paradis Cognac and Tesseron brandy.
In early 2026, Emirates will introduce the latest generation of Bowers & Wilkins First Class headphones—the E2 model, custom-tuned exclusively for Emirates’ First-Class suites. Designed to deliver exceptional clarity, comfort, and immersion, the E2 offers enhanced active noise cancellation and a more natural sonic profile for long-haul listening.
The headphones are ergonomically optimized for extended wear and seamlessly integrate with Emirates’ award-winning ice inflight entertainment system. Customers can explore a curated Bowers & Wilkins playlist onboard, selected by the brand’s sound engineers to showcase the headphones’ exceptional audio performance. A voice transparency mode allows passengers to communicate with cabin crew when needed before returning to complete serenity.
These comprehensive enhancements underscore Emirates’ commitment to delivering world-class comfort and service, transforming the journey itself into a destination of luxury and restorative rest.
