ONE of the world’s largest airlines is launching new seats for economy passengers – and they’re a game-changer.
Emirates has revealed ‘U-Dream Headrest’ seats for economy passengers which have headrests that turn into neck pillows.
The seat means you won’t need to bring your own onboard, as the headrest is adjustable in a number of ways.
It will also be padded, as well as able to move up and down and tilt, for different heights.
The design of the headrest means that it will support passengers’ necks and heads, making it easier to fall asleep.
The new seat will be on all of the airline’s A350s as well as most of its Airbus A380s and Boeing 777s.

The first planes to get the new headrest will be the A350s by the end of this year.
The airline also previously ordered 270 new Boeing 777Xs, which will all have the headrest.
And then next year, the airline will install the headrest on its Airbus A380s and existing Boeing 777s.
Sir Tim Clark, President, Emirates Airline said: “Emirates never rests on its laurels when it comes to customer experience and we have found a way to significantly improve the comfort for Economy Class passengers, especially those travelling long-haul.
“The U-Dream changes the game if the person wants to sleep – by supporting the neck in full. No more neck pillows needed.
“It’s another innovation that shows our commitment to customers and cements our Economy Class as the best.”
It isn’t the only upgrade set to come to the airline, with suggestions of the world’s first ever private bathrooms onboard.
You’ll have to start saving though, as these will only be for First Class passengers.
