They’re offering air travelers some suite relief.
Peeing and pooping at 35,000 feet will soon come as a sweet luxury for Emirates flyers flush with cash.
“I’m working on ensuite bathrooms in first class suites,” teased Tim Clark, president of the Dubai-based airline, while at the 2026 Capa Airline Leader Summit in Berlin Thursday, per The National. “I want everyone to hear that so everyone rushes out the door to find out how they can get bathrooms in first class suites.”
It’s a private pot for hotshots.
Emirates representatives did not immediately respond to The Post’s inquiry regarding a launch date for the exclusive lavatories in first class cabins.
Those covetable cabins, however, are only available on the company’s Airbus A380 and Boeing 777 aircrafts, according to its site.
First class passengers on an Airbus A380 are welcome to rinse and “rejuvenate” in either of the plane’s two shower spas, stocked with the Emirates Private Collection Bvlgari amenity kits comprised of choice toiletries and personal grooming goodies. The chichi accommodations also affords flyers a private cinema-like entertainment experience, ambient lighting, cozy bedding and gourmet meals.
The best of the Boeing 777 cabins, which come fully enclosed floor-to-ceiling suites, offers similarly chic amenities. Middle seat cabins even feature virtual windows. Shower spas, however, are not available on the aircrafts.
Still, the brand is routinely working towards upping its already-posh provisions.
Clark, who’s been with Emirates since it was founded in 1985 and became president in 2003, said the airline is “constantly refining the product” to avoid “going stale.”
Emirates will become the first commercial airline to provide private ensuite bathrooms for every first class passenger, should Clark’s potty plans come to fruition.
The visionary’s restroom endeavor comes as personalized toilets are rising as the ultimate status symbol, worldwide. While Chinese car makers are rushing to crank out in-vehicle commodes, global AI-tech imprints are introducing loos that evaluate pee and poo to determine each user’s hydration levels and gut health.
They’re all pretty fly innovations.
But when it comes to going while on-the-go, Etihad Airways has led the charge in squatting in style.
The UAE airline rolled out its swanky “The Residence” to first class trippers back in 2014. The top-tier digs — available on select Airbus A380 flights — boasts a three-room suite featuring a living room, bedroom and ensuite bathroom, and comes with a private butler.
James Hogan, former CEO of Etihad, previously described the airline as a “David … facing Goliaths” since its 2003 launch, adding that it’s had to “work harder and work smarter,” in order to outdo larger carriers.
“That’s called competition,” said Hogan.
