With Expo 2020 Dubai less than a year away, Emirates is set to showcase its latest Airbus A380 and Boeing 777-300ER with the ’mobility’ (blue) and ‘opportunity’ (orange) themes of the Expo. These aircraft will fly to DWC airport today, where Dubai Airshow will take place between 17-21 November.
Emirates’ latest Boeing 777-300ER, decorated with the orange ‘opportunity’ Expo 2020 livery, features refreshed cabin interiors fitted with the airline’s signature Game Changer fully enclosed First Class private suite, which debuted in 2017 to wide acclaim. This will be the aircraft’s second appearance at the Dubai Airshow. Emirates’ latest generation Airbus A380 will be dressed in the blue Expo 2020 livery, representing ‘mobility’. The Emirates A380 will feature 14 luxurious First Class suites, 76 flatbed seats in Business Class and 429 spacious seats in Economy Class, as well as its latest A380 Onboard Lounge. The Cirrus SR 22 and Embraer Phenom 100 jets utilized for training flights by the Emirates Flight Training Academy will also be on display to visitors.
