Emirates Debuts Ultra-Long-Range A350 with Premium Economy in Adelaide
Emirates has marked a significant fleet milestone by introducing its first ultra-long-range Airbus A350 to Adelaide, Australia. The aircraft arrived on December 1, 2025, making Adelaide the first city in Emirates’ global network to receive the long-range A350 variant featuring the airline’s newly developed Premium Economy cabin. The A350-900ULR has assumed operations on Emirates’ flagship EK440/441 services between Dubai and Adelaide, replacing the Boeing 777-200LR that previously operated the route. This transition reflects Emirates’ broader strategy of modernizing its fleet with fuel-efficient, next-generation aircraft.
