Marking the end of the holy month of Ramadan, Eid al Fitr is expected to begin on 10 April, and Emirates will honour the occasion with an array of regional flavours onboard, traditional Eid dishes in the lounges, and new Arabic movies and TV series on ice.

Eid flavours onboard Emirates

From the 10-13 April, Economy Class customers departing Dubai will be treated to the flavoursome favourites of Eid including chicken biryani with crunchy fried onions, raisins and cashew nuts, or tender lamb kibbeh labanieh with vermicelli rice and rich laban sauce. Eid themed desserts include a halwa brownie with cardamom sauce, and chocolate mousse topped with batheeth crumble.

Premium Economy and Business Class customers can sample traditional chicken mashwi el jeder, with a spiced sauce, chickpea hashwa and ghee rice tossed with potatoes, or savour a fish matfy in a spiced tomato sauce and indulgent butter rice. Desserts will include a fragrant pistachio and hibiscus namoura with raspberry curd, or a luscious vanilla and rose mousse cake.

First Class customers can experience crafted dishes like hammour matfy, in Emirati style spiced tomato sauce with basmati rice, or braised beef short ribs machbouse with fragrant rice and a local spice blend, or succulent lamb kebabs marinating in spicy tomato butter. Eid desserts will include vanilla and rose mousse cake with pistachio anglaise and fresh berries, or a warm orange blondie served with a white chocolate and vanilla cream tart, drizzled in caramel sauce. All passengers will also receive a mini treat with their meal wishing them ‘Eid Mubarak,’ a sweet pumpkin Asseda, with an additional almond apricot tart for Premium Economy, Business and First Class customers.   

In the A380 onboard lounge, a selection of Emirati pastries and Arabic coffee awaits, or customers can help themselves to a decadent slice of pistachio cake with cream cheese, or aromatic saffron and cardamom cake.
