Emirates will add Premium Economy to its Dubai-Paris Charles de Gaulle service from 25 October, using a retrofitted Airbus A380 on daily EK071 and EK072 flights. The move extends the cabin to all three of the airline’s French gateways and completes its Premium Economy rollout across Paris, Lyon and Nice.
The aircraft swap forms part of Emirates’ broader cabin retrofit programme, which is steadily expanding the product across key long-haul routes. At Charles de Gaulle, Premium Economy passengers will receive dedicated check-in and priority boarding, along with a 35-kilogram checked baggage allowance and up to 10 kilograms of carry-on baggage.
The Paris service adds another major European route to the carrier’s Premium Economy network at a time when the product is becoming more widely available across its fleet. The cabin is being introduced on the French capital route in a configuration designed to offer a higher-yield option for leisure and business travellers on the Dubai hub’s long-haul network.
