New Era at Vienna Airport: Premium Economy is Here

Some time ago, the airline began to completely modernise this aircraft model in its fleet. Not only are new, elegant and particularly comfortable seats being installed in First, Business and Economy Class. For the first time, the aircraft are also getting a Premium Economy Class.

So far, only four such refurbished aircraft have been completed for Europe, and one of them is now exclusively & daily in operation to and from Austria. Vienna is thus, alongside Geneva, Zurich and Brussels, the fourth city in the European route network of the airline to be served by the modernised Boeing 777. The maiden flight just took place at the beginning of January 2025. Emirates is thus the only airline serving Vienna Airport with a four-class aircraft.

Vienna.at took a closer look at the brand new Emirates aircraft at Vienna Airport:

Elisabeth Zauner, Emirates Country Manager Austria, is pleased about the milestone: "The deployment of the newly designed Emirates Boeing 777 aircraft on flights to Vienna reaffirms our commitment to the Austrian market. Over the past two decades, we have served the Vienna destination with industry-leading products, first-class service and seamless connectivity."

Mag. Julian Jäger, Board Member of Vienna Airport AG, adds: "For 20 years, we have had a cooperation with Emirates based on growth, trust and innovation. The decision to serve Vienna with the new Boeing 777 is a clear commitment to the strength of our location."

The refurbished aircraft model with Premium Economy lands daily at Vienna Airport. The Emirates flight EK126 departs from Vienna at 21:45 and arrives in Dubai the next day at 6:25. The return flight, EK125, takes off from Dubai at 15:40 and lands in Vienna at 18:50. From Dubai, 20 more destinations can currently be explored with the Premium Economy, including Sydney and Melbourne.
