Emirates<\/strong>‘ first fully refurbished Airbus A380, as part of the airline’s $2 billion modernization program, was deployed Friday on Dubai-London Heathrow service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCustomers will notice the difference the moment they step onboard \u2013 the spacious A380 will look and feel even more impressive and comfortable. With our latest interiors and products, this newly refurbished aircraft elevates our inflight experience in all classes of travel, and enables us to offer more Premium Economy seats to meet customer demand”, Sir Tim Clark, President Emirates Airline said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fully refreshed A380 features Emirates\u2019 latest products and interiors across all cabins, including 56 Premium Economy class seats on the main deck, and new colour palettes evident in the carpeting and wall panels. On the upper deck, First and Business Class seats sport Emirates\u2019 latest cream-coloured leather upholstery and lighter-toned wood finishing, similar to the airline\u2019s \u2018game changer\u2019 product. Emirates\u2019 signature ghaf tree motif also features prominently throughout the interiors, including hand-stencilled panels in the First Class Shower Spa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next Emirates A380 aircraft lined up for its make-over is A6-EUW, and work is expected to be completed by the end of this month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the program progresses, engineers will work simultaneously on 2 aircraft. This means that one aircraft in the fleet will be withdrawn from service every eight days and transferred to Emirates Engineering facilities. By 2024, all 67 A380s assigned for refurbishment will have returned to service. Emirates will then begin work on its 53 Boeing 777s earmarked for this project. The airline expects to complete the program in 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To deliver the largest known aircraft refurbishment program in aviation history, Emirates recruited 190 new project personnel, and is working with 48 major partners and suppliers who have also hired hundreds of skilled workers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teams of engineers and technicians have worked round the clock, taking apart the entire interior of the A380 and refitting the parts again in a carefully planned and tested sequence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
