Without too much fanfare, Emirates has recently announced a new sub-category in its business class fares,"Special" fares, or"H" class fares in Emirates' own parlance. This Special fare comes without many of the things you take for granted when you fly business class with a leading carrier, such as lounge access, seat selection and a swag of air mileage points.
Special-fare flyers earn 50 per cent of the air miles that a traveller earns with a full-fare business class ticket. You can't use points to upgrade to first class on an H class ticket and the fee for a flight change is double what a passenger flying on a Saver fare, the next rung up the business-class ladder, would pay.
How much are you saving? It's maddeningly difficult to find any Special fares on the Emirates website, and if you're thinking of flying aboard Emirates on a Special fare from Australia, tough luck,"At this stage, the special fares are to be confirmed for Australia," according to an Emirates spokesperson.
One reason that Emirates might be treading cautiously is that the airline is planning to introduce premium economy seats on its A380s in 2020. Premium economy seats often sell at 2½-3 times the price of an economy seat. So much for the frills, but it's the seat that really matters. It's a lie-flat seat rather than a full-flat bed, which means there's a slight downward tilt toward the feet. The shell-type seat has a pitch of 152cm, extending to 195cm in full-recline mode.
Excellent idea 💡👍👏
