Emirates curates serene slumbers for First Class customers with new luxe loungewear, turndown service and bed linen

The Voice of Chandigarh | Travel Trade Reporter

Beginning in December, Emirates is curating the perfect restorative sleep ritual in the sky with new loungewear, indulgent bed linen, and a thoughtful turndown service for First Class customers. Further elevating the transition into relaxation, First Class customers are invited to enjoy premium drinks served in new cut crystal glassware, relish moments of calm with the latest noise cancelling headphones from Bowers and Wilkins and unwind with an Emirates A380 Shower Spa experience enhanced by a new range of VOYA products.

Luxurious new loungewear for First Class customers

On select long-haul flights this month, Emirates First Class customers will be offered new loungewear, slippers and eye masks, designed to deliver refined comfort and effortless elegance onboard. Crafted from super-soft modal, the collection blends a sumptuous feel with breathability and lightweight ease. The premium fabric incorporates fully traceable botanic fibres sourced from sustainably grown beech trees, providing a temperature-regulating finish ideal for restful sleep. The two-piece loungewear set features a relaxed top and bottom silhouette, with a fluid drape that is both elegant and comfortable, whether for enjoying drinks at the A380 Onboard Lounge or for a serene sleep in Emirates’ fully enclosed First Class suites.

The women’s set is presented in soft blush pink and light grey, while the men’s design has a sophisticated two-tone grey palette. Matching slippers and eye masks also crafted from soft modal complete the ensemble. Slippers feature a plush inner sole for elevated comfort, while the eye mask is lined with an ultra-soft silk feel fabric to encourage uninterrupted rest.

Enhanced bed linen with 300-thread-count cotton

Further elevating the First Class sleep experience from 2026 onwards, Emirates is introducing premium 300-thread-count cotton bed linen, including pillows, duvet covers and mattress covers. Soft to the touch and impeccably finished, the new bedding is the perfect accompaniment to the indulgent and private First Class suites. Each suite has a spacious seat that reclines from upright position to a lie-flat bed, with an automatic door for full privacy.

Refined turndown service with luxury chocolate

Emirates’ First Class turndown service evokes the quiet elegance of a five-star hotel suite. The ritual includes a beautifully prepared bed with duvet, a bespoke wellness card encouraging relaxation and sweet dreams, and BYREDO Chamomile Pillow Mist delicately placed on the duvet fold. Completing the experience, a luxury chocolate is presented on the bed with premium chocolatiers featured including Valrhona, Canonica, Coco Jalila and Neuhaus.

New VOYA collection in the Emirates A380 Shower Spa

The iconic Emirates A380 Shower Spa has been refreshed with newly designed display units, thoughtfully styled to complement the colour palettes of retrofitted aircraft. Featuring a refined, speckled stone aesthetic, each hand-finished piece is unique in tone and texture, a design choice that reinforces the wellness-led ambience.

To accompany the refreshed displays, Emirates continues its partnership with luxury Irish skincare brand VOYA, introducing two new fragrance collections. The two ranges include Tranquillity, scented with calming lavender and eucalyptus, and Revitalise featuring uplifting honeysuckle and neroli, include shampoo, conditioner, body wash, body moisturiser and face wash. A coconut and jasmine soap, along with pump hand wash and hand cream complete the shower spa experience. Individual hand creams are also presented in the First and Business Class washrooms.

Elegant nightcaps served in crystal-cut glassware

New crystal-cut glassware has been introduced to complement Emirates’ existing First Class dining collection. Elegant and refined, the glassware is used to present select spirits, premium cocktails, mocktails and iced coffees, including the newly introduced iced café latte and iced Americano. Completing the collection, a new brandy balloon glass will be introduced to present Emirates’ exclusive Hennessy Paradis Cognac and Tesseron brandy.

Immersive sound with next-generation Bowers & Wilkins headphones

In early 2026, Emirates will be introducing the latest generation of Bowers & Wilkins First Class headphones, the E2, custom-tuned exclusively for Emirates’ First Class suites. Designed to deliver exceptional clarity, comfort, and immersion, the E2 model offers enhanced active noise cancellation and a more natural sonic profile for long-haul listening. The new E2 model delivers improved noise reduction and sound performance, along with improved isolation. The headphones are ergonomically optimised for extended wear and seamlessly integrate with Emirates’ award-winning ice inflight entertainment system. Customers can also explore a curated Bowers & Wilkins playlist onboard, selected by the brand’s sound engineers to showcase the headphones’ exceptional audio performance. For moments when communication with Emirates cabin crew is needed, activating voice transparency mode with the push of a button allows ambient sound to pass through, before returning the listener to complete serenity.
