Emirates is a global airline known for operating the world’s largest fleet of Boeing 777 and Airbus A380 aircraft, connecting over 140 cities across six continents through its hub in Dubai. Renowned for its exceptional customer service both on the ground and in the air, Emirates began its global expansion in the early 1990s, reaching 22 destinations by that time.
In 2000, Emirates became the first airline to order the Airbus A380, later utilizing these aircraft for long and ultra-long-haul routes, ultimately becoming their largest operator. Notable milestones include launching the Skywards loyalty program in 1999 and opening the world’s first A380-dedicated terminal at Dubai International Airport in 2013. The airline has been instrumental in establishing Dubai as a key global aviation hub and is supported by a diverse workforce of over 170 nationalities.
Emirates consistently demonstrates its commitment to sustainability and excellence, with innovative offerings like private suites in first class and industry-leading in-flight entertainment systems. It has earned industry accolades, including multiple “Airline of the Year” awards from organizations such as Skytrax and Aviation Week.
In 2024, Emirates was recognized at the Ghana Business Standards Awards with the “Outstanding Contribution to the Aviation Industry” honor, reaffirming its status as a trailblazer in global aviation and a major contributor to Dubai’s prominence in international transit.
