Emirates Launches Limited-Edition Luggage Made From Aircraft Interiors
Emirates has unveiled a new limited-edition line of luggage made from the interiors of its retrofitted A380 and Boeing 777 aircraft—offering aviation enthusiasts a chance to own a piece of flying history.
Titled the 'Aircrafted by Emirates 2025 Collection,' the 167 handmade pieces are now available at the Emirates Official Store. Each item is constructed using repurposed materials like leather headrests, aluminium panels, and even seatbelts—painstakingly cleaned and transformed by a team of in-house artisans.
The collection includes new trolley bags, backpacks, and handbags, one of which features fur from an Emirates captain's seat. Prices range from USD 80 to USD 350, with proceeds supporting children's initiatives via the Emirates Airline Foundation.
This project is part of Emirates' broader sustainability efforts and ties into its multi-billion-dollar retrofit programme, which has repurposed 30,000 kg of cabin materials from 63 aircraft to date.

Emirates Unveils New Luxury Check-In Lounge at DXB
Emirates opens a sleek new check-in lounge at DXB Terminal 3—think marble floors, iPads for check-in, and an ad-free space designed to slow the airport down before takeoff. Emirates has officially opened a new luxury check-in lounge at Dubai International Airport's Terminal 3, offering First Class and Skywards Platinum passengers a more serene and elevated start to their journey. Replacing the airline's previous First Class check-in area—which closed earlier this year for upgrades—the newly launched space blends quiet sophistication with high-touch service. Passengers can complete check-in from plush leather and fabric armchairs using an iPad, or opt for traditional staffed desks to drop off luggage. The lounge has been designed for a low-stimulation experience, with marble, wood, and carpeted flooring, integrated lighting, and grand structural columns creating a calm, ad-free atmosphere. Once checked in, travellers pass through dedicated security and immigration lanes before accessing one of Emirates' three First Class lounges within departures. Altogether, the UAE-based airline operates seven lounges at DXB Terminal 3: three for First Class, three for Business Class, and one shared Premium lounge.
