Emirates to introduce Premium Economy on two Mauritius-Dubai flights

Emirates will introduce its Premium Economy cabin on two of its three daily Mauritius-Dubai flights from September 1, 2026, giving travellers greater comfort and choice.

The service will be available on A380-operated flights EK703/704 and retrofitted Boeing 777 flights EK709/710.

Both aircraft will feature three-class configurations.

The A380 will offer 56 Premium Economy seats alongside 76 Business Class and 437 Economy seats, while the Boeing 777 will provide 24 Premium Economy, 38 Business Class and 214 Economy seats.

The move expands Emirates’ premium offering for Mauritian travellers connecting through Dubai to destinations across its global network.

Oomar Ramtoola, Emirates’ Manager for the Indian Ocean Islands, said: “Mauritius has always been an important market for Emirates, and the introduction of Premium Economy on the route is another demonstration of our continued commitment to our Mauritian customers as well as the nation’s travel and tourism industry.

Ramtoola added: “Emirates’ Premium Economy offering provides travellers with an attractive proposition, with stylish and elevated cabins for those seeking additional comfort and privacy for longer journeys. Driven by our commitment to Mauritius and the evolving needs of customers across our network, we are immensely proud to expand our offerings by  introducing Premium Economy and other inflight enhancements that will elevate the travel experience for customers on the Mauritius-Dubai route – all designed to provide exceptional value for travellers. -TradeArabia News Service
