Bahrain becomes first Emirates destination exclusively served by Airbus A350

Emirates has designated Bahrain as the first destination in its global network to be exclusively served by the Airbus A350, following the arrival of its third A350 aircraft at Bahrain International Airport on June 2.

The deployment marks a milestone in the airline’s fleet modernisation strategy and is part of its ‘Fly Better’ promise to elevate the passenger experience. Emirates’ A350 offers a three-class configuration, including 32 lie-flat Business Class seats in a 1-2-1 layout, 21 Premium Economy seats arranged 2-3-2, and 259 Economy seats in a 3-3-3 layout.

The aircraft features enhanced cabin comfort, including higher ceilings, wider aisles, quieter environments, and next-generation in-flight entertainment and connectivity.

The exclusive use of the A350 on the Bahrain route underscores Emirates’ commitment to the market and its investment in premium service for the kingdom.

Emirates A350 operations

Emirates currently operates the A350 across several short- and medium-haul destinations, including Amman, Kuwait, Edinburgh, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Colombo, and Tunis.

The airline aims to expand A350 operations to 17 cities worldwide by the end of 2025.
