Winter Sun Escapes

When we’re lusting over an injection of vitamin D to soak up the final days of our annual leave allowance, with a private plunge pool on one side and spa menu on the other, it’s easy to focus on the destination and forget about the journey. Choosing an airline is just as important as choosing your hotel and when it comes to flying east, there is a reason Emirates continue to win award after award. The in-flight experience is one of the world’s best. Amenity kits, for example, which are usually reserved for Business Class passengers only these days, are provided for all and what’s more, entirely made from recycled materials. They are also hugely child-friendly, with crew known to go the extra mile for parents. Complimentary strollers at Dubai airport are just one of the thoughtful (and practical!) touches which makes a huge difference when travelling with a tired toddler in tow. As a pioneer for some of the first individual entertainment systems in the 1990s, 30 years on, the Emirates on board entertainment beats that of most living rooms, a recent statement touting that clients would have to fly between Dubai and Sydney 500 times to watch everything on hand! For your next winter sun escape, fly better with Emirates.
