Visitors can experience its first-class suite and be assisted with ticket purchases
Dubai-based airline Emirates on May 6 opened its first retail store in Singapore, where customers can experience its first-class suite and be assisted with services like ticket purchases or upgrades.
The Emirates World store, which spans over 330 sq m, is located at Odeon 333, across the street from Raffles Hotel.
This comes as Emirates said it has flown more than 800,000 passengers between Singapore and Dubai in 2024, with the airline expecting the numbers to grow.
Mr Adnan Kazim, Emirates' deputy president and chief commercial officer, who inaugurated the opening of the store, said: "Singapore has always been a cornerstone of Emirates' operations in South-east Asia. We look forward to welcoming customers into this new home and continuing to grow in Singapore in the years ahead."
