Emirates Finally Introduces Premium Economy Rewards
Emirates now offers Premium Economy reward seats and upgrades with Skywards miles, but you can’t book a seat using Qantas Points… yet.

Emirates currently has 16 fifth-freedom tag flights that operate as a continuation of a service originating in Dubai to a third country.
We now have a somewhat absurd situation where Qantas Frequent Flyer members can access Emirates First Class reward seats, but not a large cohort of Emirates’ own Skywards loyalty program members.
Emirates is now restricting access to its First Class reward seats to Skywards members who have status. It’s given barely two days of notice about this change.
There’s a common misconception that airlines make the most profit from Business and First Class seats. Nowadays, the best earner is Premium Economy.
