Both Emirates Airline and Etihad Airways are planning to launch fully enclosed private bedrooms on aircraft, where customers can experience the same modern technology in the sky that they are accustomed to enjoying at home.
"It's all about privacy," Emirates President Tim Clark said in an interview. "Our new bedroom concept will take it to the next level."
Emirates, the biggest operator of Airbus Group NV's A380 superjumbo and the largest customer of Boeing Co. BA +0.17% 's new long-range 777X jet, is in the advanced stages of launching bedrooms that will likely feature on both sets of aircraft and include room service. The Dubai-based airline already has 1,562 private podlike structures it calls "suites" on its fleet of 218 aircraft.
Emirates wouldn't disclose the price it will charge for its bedrooms. But a return ticket on a New York to Dubai flight retails for around $26,000 in one of the suites, which cost around $500,000 each to produce—roughly the same as the price of a studio flat in downtown Manhattan.
With $500,000 , i can comfortably buy a house in Nigeria , lolzzz
