Emirates Unveils Luxury Suite at US Open, Hosts Celebrities for Quarterfinals

Emirates transformed a section of Arthur Ashe Stadium into a luxury lounge that is four times the size of typical US Open suites, outfitted with cream-leather seating, wood-grain finishes and booths modeled after the airline’s premium cabins. A full-scale replica of the Airbus A380 sky bar serves champagne and signature cocktails, while a caviar bar offers blinis and accompaniments. The venue hosted a celebrity lineup that included model Grace Ann Nader, rappers Latto, Fabolous and Dave East, and “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child” actors Tom Felton and Emmet Smith, alongside Emirates USA vice-president Matthew Jones.

Attendees watched Sabalenka, the defending champion and world No. 1, defeat sixth-seed Linda Nosková in three sets, then enjoyed a lavish lunch of fillet mignon, sushi and a seafood tower. Later they cheered Frances Tiafoe’s five-set win over Alex Michelsen before receiving Emirates-branded white tennis balls as a souvenir.
