Emirates launched a new premium economy cabin in the United States with flights between Dubai and each New York JFK and San Francisco this month. The carrier now plans to introduce the service on Houston flights in June and Los Angeles flights in July, Emirates announced Tuesday. 

The premium economy service, included on retrofitted Airbus A380 aircraft, includes wide cream leather seats with extra legroom, raised cushioned leg rests, reusable amenity kits, 13.3-inch HD TV screens, Bluetooth connectivity, “higher-speed” Wi-Fi service and an “elevated dining experience,” according to the carrier.

Emirates plans to offer the cabin on routes to 10 cities globally by the end of 2023. Other destinations for which it currently is available include London, Sydney, Melbourne, Auckland and Christchurch.
