In a move that redefines luxury air travel, Emirates has introduced its regional charter service, offering unparalleled flexibility and comfort for discerning travellers. This service is akin to having a private jet on demand, ready to whisk you away on short trips within the GCC with all the conveniences and luxuries you’d expect from the Emirates brand.

Operating from Dubai’s Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC), the service employs the Phenom 100 twin-engine aircraft, a gem in the ‘very light jet’ category. This is about getting from point A to B with style, efficiency and on-demand. While the new regional charter service offers a unique travel experience, it complements the existing ‘Emirates Executive‘ offering, which features a customised A319 aircraft catering to up to 19 guests, ensuring a variety of luxury options for discerning travelers.

One of the standout features of this service is its reach. While it’s rooted in Dubai, the charter isn’t limited to the Emirates network. It offers swift turnarounds to a plethora of GCC destinations, including key points in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, and various locations within the UAE. This flexibility ensures that passengers can tailor their journeys according to their needs, without being bound by conventional flight schedules.

The Phenom 100 aircraft, though compact, is designed for luxury. It can comfortably accommodate up to four passengers, ensuring an intimate and personalized travel experience. Passengers are treated to a curated hamper of light bites and refreshments, ensuring that their short trip is both delightful and satisfying.

However, the luxury doesn’t begin and end in the skies. Emirates ensures a seamless, hassle-free ground experience for its charter service patrons. In Dubai, travellers can avail of the Emirates Chauffeur Drive Services, ensuring a smooth journey to DWC. Upon arrival, a dedicated representative ensures VIP access and a streamlined airport experience.

The luxury continues upon reaching the destination. Emirates has collaborated with private terminal service partners to ensure a swift, escorted arrival for its passengers. This means quick VIP clearance at customs and immigration, ensuring that passengers spend minimal time with the formalities and more time enjoying their destination.

Every aspect is designed for luxury, convenience, and exclusivity. For those who value their time and comfort, this service is a game-changer, setting a new benchmark in regional air travel. ◼
