plenty of gadgets<\/a><\/span> that you can buy to make those rigid economy seats more comfortable. But soon, Emirates passengers will no longer have to bring their own neck pillow.<\/p>\nEmirates will roll out a new economy seat feature to help passengers sleep on long-haul flights, the Dubai-based carrier announced Monday. These “U-Dream” Headrests are adjustable headrests that provide additional support for travelers’ heads and necks and will be installed across much of the airline’s fleet in the coming years.<\/p>\n
The airline says it is the first in the world to introduce the product, which was developed in partnership with seat supplier Safran. The leather-padded headrest has side wings that can fold inward to cradle your head while you sleep, helping prevent you from falling forward or onto your seat neighbor’s shoulder. Flyers can also adjust them vertically and tilt them to accommodate different heights and body types.<\/p>\n
