Emirates Airline![]() Dubai-based Emirates is one of the fastest growing airlines in the world and has received more than 250 international awards for excellence since its launch in 1985. With the recent addition of new routes to Moscow, Auckland, Perth, Mauritius and Cochin we can now take you to more than 70 destinations in 50 countries in Europe, the Middle East, the Far East, Africa, Asia and Australia.
EMIRATES IN-FLIGHT Our professional, friendly, multilingual cabin crew are drawn from more than 90 nationalities and will do everything they can to make you feel at home. All Emirates aircraft are equipped with a personal entertainment system in all classes. On Emirates B777 and A330 aircraft, passengers are provided with up to 18 TV channels and 22 audio channels. Passengers traveling in First or Business Class are offered our film library, with up to 50 titles to ensure there's always a favorite to watch on your in-seat personal video player. * Currently Emirates operates an A310 service on selected routes (including Peshawar) on which every passenger has access to six TV channels and eight audio channels. DUBAI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT Thanks to the five-level, state-of-the-art terminal, your journey to or through Dubai is even easier and more enjoyable. There are two Emirates lounges, First and Business Class, providing travelers with luxuries including spacious sitting rooms, massage chairs, guest bedrooms, and 42-inch plasma television screens. The Business Class lounge was extensively refurbished and upgraded last year, effectively doubling its size. In addition, a dedicated First and Business Class check-in, a 100-room luxury hotel, a fully equipped business and conference centre, and more than 5,400 square meters of Duty Free shopping maintain the Emirates focus on superior customer service.
Our fleet is constantly being upgraded to keep it one of the youngest in the skies. After recent additions we now have an extensive fleet of over 50 aircraft, which includes 29 Airbus A330-200, 9 Boeing 777, and 12 larger 300-series Boeing 777 aircraft. As a highlight of our future growth Emirates announced the biggest order in civil aviation history, worth $19 billion, at the Paris Air Show 2003. In December
2003, the first of 28 ultra-long range Airbus 340-series
aircraft joined the Emirates fleet. These spacious four-engine
planes can travel over 14,000km without refueling - allowing
Emirates to take you all the way non-stop from Dubai to
Australia, Japan or North and South America. An additional 26
Boeing 777s will also extend our capacity on existing routes. We
are proud to be one of the first airlines that will fly the
newest and largest passenger aircraft in the world, the Airbus
Double Decker A380, which holds over 550 passengers and will be
joining our fleet by October 2006. Emirates has 45 of these
advanced aircraft on order. Coutesy
