Vienna becomes the latest European city to welcome Emirates’ four-class Boeing 777
Emirates, the world’s largest international airline, has announced that its retrofitted Boeing 777 aircraft will be deployed on flights EK125/126 between Dubai and Vienna starting 3 January 2025, marking Vienna as the fourth European city to feature this enhanced, four-class service.
This development will be of particular interest to Global Travel Management’s UK-based business travellers, as it offers a premium travel experience with enhanced comfort and services across all classes.
The retrofitted Boeing 777 introduces Emirates’ award-winning Premium Economy cabin, alongside refreshed interiors in First, Business and Economy, ensuring every traveller experiences the airline’s best-in-class products.
With eight luxurious First Class suites, 40 Business Class seats in a 1-2-1 configuration, 24 spacious Premium Economy seats and 256 ergonomically designed Economy seats, Emirates’ retrofitted Boeing 777 provides an upgraded travel experience.
The Premium Economy cabin offers added comfort with six-way adjustable headrests and extra space, catering to both business and leisure travellers. Business Class features Emirates’ signature flatbed seats, direct aisle access and a 23-inch HD screen for ultimate in-flight entertainment.
Paul Baker, Sales Director of Global Travel Management, commented,
This announcement by Emirates is fantastic news for UK-based business travellers. With its enhanced four-class configuration, the retrofitted Boeing 777 offers an unparalleled travel experience, making journeys to Vienna more comfortable and productive than ever.
Vienna joins Geneva, Zurich and Brussels in receiving Emirates’ upgraded Boeing 777 as part of the airline’s largest fleet retrofit project, which has already introduced 10 enhanced aircraft to destinations worldwide. This milestone reflects Emirates’ commitment to continually improving its service offerings for both regional and long-haul routes.
Emirates has a strong relationship with Austria, celebrating 20 years of operations in the country and carrying more than 5 million passengers since launching its Vienna route in 2004. The airline also plays a crucial role in supporting Austrian exports and imports, transporting nearly 250,000 tonnes of freight over the past decade.
