Young travellers flying with Emirates with have an ‘ice’ experience, as the airline upgrades elements of Economy Class.
Rolling out from the end of June, all Emirates A380 aircraft will receive new redesigned headsets for the airline’s award-winning ice entertainment system.
The new headsets will also be available on the Boeing 777 fleet later in the year.
These headsets have been totally redesigned with a view to improving sound quality, reduction of ambient cabin noise and overall comfort.
The headset’s rectangular shape makes it more ergonomic for the wearer, and premium leatherette ear cushions enhance comfort which is especially important on longer flights.
Not to be left behind, young travellers on Emirates will also receive new headsets, which can be used to enjoy up to 75 channels of dedicated children’s entertainment from up to 2,000 channels overall.
Emirates first introduced children’s headsets in the late 1990s, featuring a smaller headset band which is more comfortable for smaller heads.
These fun and colourful new headsets will also have larger speakers for a more comfortable fit and much improved sound quality.
“Emirates economy class headsets are amongst the best in class for commercial airlines, and we’ve always recognised that sound quality is vitally important in creating an enjoyable entertainment experience.”
Patrick Brannelly, Emirates Divisional Vice President, Customer Experience
“This new design will lift the audio quality to a new level, and now customers can completely immerse themselves in the broad variety of entertainment choices offered onboard.”
