Emirates new toys for children on flights

The toys are designed for infants and children up to eight years old .

Emirates has released its newest range of toys, the Fly with Me Animals for infants and toddlers.

The toys are designed for infants and children up to eight years old and are meant to be both entertaining and educational.

Each character represents a specific region and will help children learn more about its habitat.

The first four animals to make their debut on board are:

  • Lewis the Lion from Africa
  • Peek U the Panda from China
  • Enrico the Monkey from Latin America
  • Leila the Camel from the Middle East

Four new Fly with Me Animals will be introduced every six months.

The animals will be featured across three product lines: the Travel Buddy which comes with a plastic toggle allowing the toy to be hung in the car, on a pram or in the cot; the Carry Buddy, a dual purpose toy and blanket; as well as the Magnetic Sketcher for young ones to express themselves creatively.

The Fly With Me magazine on board has also been revamped to feature the animals. The activity-filled publication is produced exclusively for Emirates’ young flyers.

In addition to the Fly with Me Animals, Emirates has partnered with Lonely Planet to create activity bags containing travel content tailored for children.

The Fly with Me Lonely Planet products come in four variations – two specially designed Kid’s Retro-Style Rucksacks, and two Kid’s Cool Bags. These products will be refreshed every 12 months.

Each bag features different content to encourage a sense of adventure in young travellers. These include fold-out world maps, travel journals, plastic drink bottles, cards with world facts and various educational books exclusive to Emirates.

Meal times on board have also been given extra attention. The special meals offered to children aged between two and 12 years old will be served on newly designed meal trays featuring the iconic Emirates cabin crew and pilots.

Children travelling on Emirates will be kept occupied with its inflight entertainment system, ice Digital Widescreen, which features over 25 dedicated kids TV channels and over 40 classic Disney movies.

They will be given specially designed smaller headphones that are comfortable and colourful with great sound quality.
