Emirates is spreading Christmas cheer for travellers throughout December, with traditional treats and festive fare available across international lounges and a host of delights served inflight.
The airline’s First and Business Class lounges in Dubai are serving traditional roasted turkey with jus and cranberry sauce, glazed chestnuts, root vegetables, brussels sprouts and new potatoes, among a wide array of dishes. In Business Class lounges, Christmas dinner is also being served alongside desserts like cherry pistachio festive tart, Christmas fruit cake, chocolate yule log, and lime macarons with peppermint ganache.
From 14 to 26 December, customers in all classes are being offered festive hot chocolate, with different toppings across classes from meringues to marshmallows to Valrhona chocolate pellets.
