Emirates airlines are often associated with luxury and a new Emirates VR cabin experience gives all sorts of people the ability to interact and explore the interiors of the new A380. Available through the Emirates website, the experience allows users to wander through 3D renderings of the plane's economy, business and first class cabins, as well as a fancy shower and lounge. Users can also sit in various seats throughout the VR cabin experience and can manipulate the lights while seated.
Customers visiting the VR cabin experience on mobile devices, or via the Emirates app, will also be able to book seats within the virtual environment. According to Emirates, the experience is meant to offer "an immersive opportunity to learn more about the fantastic Emirates experience before they step on board."
