across all cabin classes featuring traditional festive meals.
Emirates festive menu
The
special menu will be in addition to the wide variety of cuisine
available on board and features holiday favourites such as roast turkey

to providing regional and seasonal menus using fresh ingredients of the

Australia, Europe, the United States or the United Kingdom and will be
served throughout December.

Premium

Airport. Traditional sweets such as Basler Leckerli gingerbread cookies,
Christmas cake and Stollen cake are being served as well as roasted
turkey in the First Class lounges.
Special treat for young flyers
