Emirates celebrates Valentine's Day
Emirates is transforming the journey on 14 February 2026 into a sensory experience dedicated to love, with a special Valentine's Day programme involving all of the airline's international travel classes and lounges, starting with the Dubai hub.
Valentine's Day in flight: sweet gifts and romantic atmosphere
All Economy and Premium Economy Class passengers travelling on 14 February will receive a mini gift box with chocolate and raspberry brownies, while the cabin lighting is tinged with red to create an intimate and atmospheric atmosphere.
In First and Business Class, the gourmet experience is enhanced with chocolate brownies, mini raspberry ganache tartlets decorated with hearts and a selection of desserts also served in the iconic Airbus A380 onboard lounge, where lemon and raspberry cupcakes, profiteroles and mini tarts will be available.
Exceptional rosé champagne in First and Business Class
The most exclusive moment is reserved for First Class passengers, welcomed with a glass of Dom Pérignon Rosé 2009, a rare and exclusive vintage for Emirates. Produced for the first time in 1959, this cuvée pays homage to Pinot Noir with aromas of raspberry and cherry, notes of cassis and fig, rose, orange oil, saffron, up to hints of gingerbread and licorice.
