Just last year, Emirates officially became the first airline to launch its own VR app on the Oculus store. This app offers users accurate, life-size and interactive cabin interior experiences onboard Emirates’ flagship A380 aircraft and Boeing 777-300ER Gamechanger aircraft. Consider this, users can “pick up” things from the Onboard Lounge or “turn on” the Shower in the Shower Spa. Additionally, they can also explore the cockpit.

News From Expo

Emirates recently announced that its pavilion at the Expo 2020 site will be repurposed into a center for innovation.
