‘Emirates First’ has officially opened at Dubai International Airport, offering a seamless and luxurious passenger check-in experience for Emirates First Class clientele and Skywards Platinum members from door to gate and on board.
The exclusive Emirates First experience at DXB’s Terminal 3 features an upgraded check-in space with a private seating area reserved for First Class guests.
The new area is signified by a golden entryway to the private space, which is furnished with a warm, neutral palette and elements of the airline’s signature bronze and gold hues.

The space features wooden and marble flooring, soft leather and fabric armchairs and sofas and Emirates’ Rolex clocks showing world times in a nod to the airline’s First Class Lounges.
With zero advertising or digital screens, the space aims to create a tranquil oasis for premium passengers to check in via iPads while seated or at counters with staff assistance and complete bag drop at dedicated First Class baggage belts – no queueing required.

Passengers can then breeze through security and immigration and proceed to one of the three dedicated Emirates First Class Lounges in Terminal 3.
Guests will enjoy a Chauffeur Drive Service transfer to the airport, fast-tracked check-in at Emirates First, access to the exclusive lounge and First Class facilities on board as part of the elevated experience.

Emirates Deputy President & COO Adel al Redha said: “We invest heavily in upgrading our ground products and Emirates First is one of the areas that will offer a unique and private environment to our First Class customers and Skywards Platinum members.”
“We know our customers value privacy and convenience and this will provide another level of hospitality to the check-in experience as part of our efforts to continuously uplift the overall travel journey.”
Emirates also recently unveiled a new ‘Crew Zone‘ for cabin crew at its Group HQ in Dubai.
