Dubai
EMIRATES, the world's biggest airline on international routes, said that it will introduce a first class cabin that allows more privacy at "commercially viable" rates, following the success of premium suites on its super jumbos.
The product will initially be rolled out on the airline's Airbus 380 planes followed by the Boeing 777s, Sheikh Majid Al Mualla, Emirates' divisional senior vice-president of commercial operations for the region, told reporters in Dubai.
