What is inside?
Emirates converted the A319 from its normal airline layout to carry far fewer passengers. There are 10 private suites that are larger than the airline’s Premium First Class cabins, each with a 32-inch screen. A lounge can be set up as a private restaurant, boardroom or social space, with two 42-inch screens and sofas.
There is an onboard spa shower with heated floors and marble, and a separate powder room finished in walnut and marble. Toiletries and skincare in the shower and spa were from Bulgari when the jet launched.
What technology does it have?
Wi-Fi, live TV, mobile phone connectivity and video conferencing are listed. The earlier claim of 1,500 channels of on-demand entertainment dates from the launch and we could not reconfirm it.
How much does it cost?
Emirates does not publish a rate card that we found. Press and aircraft listings put the cost at about $15,000 to $20,000 per flight hour, depending on route and passengers, while one charter broker listed about 21,100 euros per hour. Treat these as estimates and request a quote. Ground services, such as a chauffeur-driven car, were part of the original service pitch.
Is it worth it?
Our view: for a group of up to 19 crossing time zones, it competes with large private jets that cost more to buy. Emirates itself has said private aviation is a different business, and it runs only this aircraft plus small Phenom jets for regional charter.
