Entertainment during long flights is crucial, so Emirates is now offering over 1,000 movies to its passengers, more than any other airline.

The expansive film library features over 2,000 hours of entertainment that will be available on over 80 aircraft in the carrier’s fleet. The movies include more than 500 Hollywood hits and 600 world films to meet the interests of Emirates’ diverse customer base.

The movie library compliments the over 3,500 channels of on-demand entertainment featuring popular television shows and music.

“Traveling on Emirates has always been centered on an unmatched customer experience,” Emirates divisional vice president Patrick Brannelly said in a statement. “We’re proud to offer the greatest entertainment choice ever seen in the sky, with probably more choices than most people have at home.”

“We want to create a better-than-home experience when you fly Emirates, with the latest and best movies, great TV and a huge music selection,” Brannelly continued.

The entertainment system, dubbed ice, has over 100 movies added each month, features over 25 feature-length documentaries and boasts Emirates’ own Food and Wine Channels that showcase how the carrier creates its onboard menus and works with its global partners.

In addition, Wi-Fi is available on over 99 percent of the airline’s fleet and customers across all cabins can enjoy 20 MB of free data.
