Emirates concluded its Thanksgiving celebrations across routes to and from the United States, offering passengers special seasonal menus and entertainment from 24–30 November. The airline served traditional holiday dishes across all cabin classes and extended the Thanksgiving experience to its lounges in Dubai and major U.S. cities.

Across First and Business Class, customers enjoyed elevated dining with gourmet variations of roasted turkey, seafood starters, autumn vegetables and decadent desserts such as key lime tart, apple fritters and chocolate marble cheesecake. Premium Economy and Economy travelers were treated to festive salads, turkey roulades, classic sides and Thanksgiving-inspired sweets including sticky toffee pudding and Snickerdoodle cookies. On A380 flights, First and Business Class customers could also indulge in pecan cupcakes and premium drinks in the onboard lounge.

In Emirates Lounges in New York, Boston, Los Angeles, San Francisco and Dubai, guests sampled traditional fare like cider-brined turkey breast, brioche stuffing, creamy mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables and pumpkin-spiced desserts, complemented by seasonal cocktails and mocktails.

To complete the holiday atmosphere, Emirates’ ice entertainment system featured a lineup of NBA games and expanded holiday content, offering passengers thousands of movies, TV shows, music and audiobooks throughout the festive week.
