Emirates will launch its new Premium Economy class on flights EK434/435 between Dubai and Brisbane, available three times a week, beginning 1 February 2025. Passengers can book tickets via emirates.com, the Emirates App, or through various travel agents, both online and offline.

With the introduction of Premium Economy on flights EK434/435, Brisbane will join Sydney and Melbourne in the Emirates’ Australian network. The network will be served by retrofitted aircraft equipped with the airline's product. The deployment further underscores Emirates’ commitment to allowing Queenslanders to experience its best-in-class products, including refreshed interiors and enhanced cabins across all classes.

By 1 April 2025, Emirates will serve Australia with close to 4,000 Premium Economy seats via two daily services from Sydney and two from Melbourne. In addition to the Brisbane service, a third Melbourne service featuring a retrofitted Boeing 777 on flight EK404/405 will launch on 30 March 2025.

Australian travellers can also experience Emirates' highly popular Premium Economy product on flights to popular destinations across the airline's global network, such as London, Vienna, and Riyadh, via Dubai.  

Emirates has been serving Brisbane for more than 22 years and currently operates double-daily flights between Dubai and Brisbane. With 77 weekly services connecting Australia’s five largest cities—Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide—to over 140 destinations via Dubai, Emirates continues providing Australian travellers with seamless global connectivity, including popular European routes.
