Emirates Flights: Airline Profile and Routes Information
Profile:
Any regular watchers of Premiership football will need no introduction to Emirates, who are the shirt sponsors of Chelsea and the league’s referees. They have also spent a small fortune buying the naming rights to Arsenal's magnificent new 60,000 capacity stadium at Ashburton Grove. Emirates regularly top the tables of consumer surveys, due to high standards of in-flight entertainment and on board food.
Alternative Names (including former names, popular mis-spellings etc):
- Emirates Airline, Air Emirates
Emirates Routes List
Another key trump card which Emirates can play in a highly competitive UK to Australia market is the chance to do some serious retail therapy at Dubai International airport, the airline’s main hub and home to some of the best, and cheapest, duty free shops in the world. Emirates offer flights to Dubai from Birmingham, Manchester and Glasgow as well is in Heathrow or Gatwick airport in London. The huge expansion in Emirates' route network from Dubai has also been complemented by the success of its UK regional routes. During the last year the Glasgow to Dubai flights have been upgraded from an Airbus A330 to a Boeing 777, Birmingham to Dubai flights increased to twice-daily, and the frequency of the airline’s Manchester to Dubai service increased to three times a day.
Considering the emphasis Emirates put on quality of service, it is not surprising that their flights can often be a little bit on the pricey side compared to some of their equally impressive, but less celebrated Asian rivals.
