Emirates is set to transform its flights into a festive wonderland this December, offering passengers a unique Christmas experience at 40,000 feet. With over 23 million departures and 25 million arrivals expected in the coming weekends, the airline is rolling out a series of festive touches, from seasonal menus to holiday entertainment, to enhance the journey for all travellers.
Throughout December, passengers can indulge in festive treats, starting with hot chocolate served in all classes from 17 to 26 December. Special Christmas menus will be available, featuring traditional dishes like roasted turkey and innovative creations such as herb-crusted lamb shank. First Class passengers will also enjoy an edible Santa Claus made from strawberries and cream.
The A380 Onboard Lounge will offer a selection of artisanal sweet treats and a hearty Christmas sandwich, whilst Emirates lounges worldwide will serve regional Christmas dishes. From 15 to 31 December, First and Business Class lounges in Dubai will feature festive cocktails and a Champagne selection, including Moët & Chandon.
Emirates' inflight entertainment system, ice, will showcase 39 holiday films and 42 Christmas TV shows, ensuring passengers are entertained throughout their journey. Additionally, the EmiratesRED Winter 2025 catalogue offers over 300 gift options, with a 10% discount on preorders.
Emirates is also encouraging passengers to spread Christmas kindness by matching donations to the Emirates Airline Foundation, supporting underprivileged children. This initiative allows customers to double their impact, making the festive season brighter for those in need.
