Staying Connected

Keep in touch from 40,000 feet.
Emirates makes it easy to stay connected to family, friends and colleagues on the ground with a wide range of communications options. Be sure to use the Services by Flight tool on the right to see what you can expect on a specific flight.

In-seat telephone
Use the satellite telephone in every seat to call any phone in the world at only US$5 per minute. All major credit cards are accepted, as well as pre-paid telephone cards (available onboard). You can also use the phone to speak to someone seated elsewhere on board.

SMS and email
You can send and receive SMS and email messages to any mobile phone or email address in the world for US$1 per message



Up to the minute information
Follow the progress of your flight on our moving map channel, Airshow; or enjoy a bird’s eye view from one of the external cameras.. Or perhaps you’d like to read up on Dubai, Emirates, or our frequent flyer programme, Skywards. You can also see live BBC news headlines, refreshed regularly during the flight. You won’t have to miss a thing while you’re in the air.
