Emirates launches luxury First Class sleep experience with modal loungewear

Emirates has launched a significant upgrade to its First Class cabin experience, focusing on elevating the passenger sleep ritual to rival five-star hotels. Central to this enhancement is the debut of a luxury loungewear collection, crafted from sustainably sourced modal fiber, available immediately on select long-haul routes. The two-piece sets, offered in blush or grey, are designed to be temperature-regulating and include matching slippers and an eye mask, optimizing comfort for sleeping at altitude or relaxing in the A380 Onboard Lounge.

Further enhancing the sleep experience, Emirates will introduce 300-thread-count cotton bed linen, including plush pillows and duvet covers, starting in 2026. This bedding upgrade is paired with a curated turndown service where cabin crew prepare the suite with crisp bedding, BYREDO Chamomile Pillow Mist, a handwritten wellness card, and fine chocolates from brands such as Valrhona and Neuhaus.

The airline also refreshed the A380 Shower Spa, which now features hand-finished, speckled stone display units and two new VOYA fragrance lines: Tranquillity (lavender and eucalyptus) and Revitalise (honeysuckle and neroli). Beyond sleep and wellness, Emirates is upgrading its beverage service with custom-made cut-crystal glassware for nightcaps and cocktails, and plans to introduce Bowers and Wilkins noise-cancelling headphones early next year.
