FE Report
Emirates introduced new reservations booking designator (RBD) for travelling in first class on or after March 30, 2008 in its aircraft featuring private suites.
The private suites will initially feature on selected Emirates Airbus A340-500, Boeing 777-200 LR, Airbus A380 and Boeing 777-300 ER three class aircraft, before being rolled out on other selected three-class aircraft across the Emirates fleet, said a press release.
The new booking code designators on the aircraft with private suites is P (first class with private suites), J (business class) and Y (economy class), while aircraft without suites will continue with F, J and Y designators.
Emirates will reflect the new 'P' reservations code in its own carrier reservation system (CRS) and in all global distribution systems (GDS), thus enabling Emirates reservation and sales staff, as well as the travel trade, to identify the new private suite product and inform the customer accordingly.
For booking, customers have been requested to log on to www.emirates.com. The availability and itinerary displayed will show first class with private suites or just first class, thus differentiating between 'P'and 'F'.
