Emirates Launches Premium Economy on Kuala Lumpur Flights | PrivyTrips
Oct 01, 2025Emirates has officially deployed its retrofitted Boeing 777 aircraft on the busy Dubai–Kuala Lumpur, marking a major milestone for travelers seeking more comfort, choice, and style in the skies. Flights EK346 and EK347 now feature the airline’s award-winning Premium Economy cabin, alongside refreshed First, Business, and Economy Class cabins.
What’s New on the Retrofitted Boeing 777?
Emirates’ Premium Economy has been designed to bridge the gap between standard Economy and the elevated experience of Business Class. For travelers from Malaysia heading to Dubai — or connecting onwards to Europe and North America — the new cabin is an ideal upgrade.
Highlights of Premium Economy include:
- Spacious leather seats with leg rests, footrests, and adjustable headrests
- Enhanced dining experience with Royal Doulton fine china, polished woodgrain tables, and premium wines
- 13.3-inch personal entertainment screens with an extensive KrisWorld library
- Complimentary amenity kits, plush pillows, and blankets for added comfort
- Generous baggage allowance of 35kg checked-in and 10kg carry-on
This is part of Emirates’ multi-billion-dollar refurbishment project, which will see 219 aircraft upgraded by 2026. To date, 67 have been completed, and by the end of 2025, Emirates expects to offer nearly 2 million Premium Economy seats annually across its global network.
Why It Matters for Malaysian Travelers
Malaysia has been one of Emirates’ key markets for nearly three decades, and this latest product introduction strengthens the connection between Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and North America. With seamless connections via Dubai, travelers from Kuala Lumpur can fly in enhanced comfort to destinations like:
- London Heathrow
- New York (JFK)
- Lyon, France
- And nearly 70 other destinations already offering Premium Economy
Emirates’ Full Cabin Refresh
Beyond Premium Economy, Emirates has also introduced refreshed interiors for First Class and Business Class travelers on the Boeing 777. Passengers can expect upgraded seating, improved cabin ambiance, and the consistent premium service the airline is known for.
For Business Class travelers booking through PrivyTrips, Emirates remains one of the most popular airlines for premium travel to Europe, the Middle East, and beyond. With new interiors rolling out, flying Business Class with Emirates will feel even more seamless and modern.
