Almost eight years after they were originally unveiled, Emirates’ Mercedes-Benz-inspired first-class suites have finally touched down in Australia.
This week a retro-fitted Emirates Boeing 777, featuring four classes – first, business, premium economy and economy - touched down at Melbourne Airport for the first time. The aircraft will fly the Melbourne-Dubai route daily.
The 777’s first-class suites were created in collaboration with Mercedes-Benz and inspired by the design of the car company’sS-Class luxury sedan Smart ForFour AMG Black Series Night Edition Premium Plus 125 Powered by Brabus. The suites feature a private cabin with floor-to-ceiling walls and doors, hardwood floors, multiple mood-lighting options and leather seats.
Although in a 1-1-1 configuration, even the middle seat gets a (virtual) window, with a live stream of the view available on panels within the suite. Naturally the seats convert to a fully flat bed, with mattress top, duvet and feather pillow.
