Emirates is bringing the spirit of Holi to the skies on March 13 and 14, treating passengers traveling to and from India with festive delights. Customers flying on select routes will be greeted with Holi-themed refreshments, including the traditional Emirates Thandai and Sweets, featuring the popular Indian sweet, Kesar Gujiya. These special offerings spread festive cheer among passengers journeying to Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kolkata, and Mumbai.
Indulging in Holi’s Sweet Traditions
Passengers in all travel classes will enjoy Kesar Gujiya, a deep-fried dumpling filled with rich, solidified milk and dried fruits, served in a vibrant, festival-inspired box.
First and business-class customers will also receive a refreshing Thandai, a milk-based beverage infused with saffron, rose petals, and nuts, enhancing the celebratory experience. The airline’s initiative not only adds a festive touch to the journey but also fosters a deeper cultural connection with its Indian travelers.
Entertainment with an Indian Flair
To complement the festive spirit, Emirates offers an extensive selection of Indian entertainment on its award-winning ice inflight system. Passengers can explore a collection of 180 Indian films, from the latest blockbusters like Salaar: Part 1 – Ceasefire, Patna Shuklla, and Shaitaan, to classic Bollywood hits.
Additionally, curated content from Yash Raj Films, renowned for its romantic productions, and various Indian TV shows and music playlists, including Spotify’s Desi Hits and Desi Pop, will be available to ensure an immersive entertainment experience.
