Emirates Airline (shortened form: Emirates) (Arabic: طيران الإماراتTayarān al-Imārāt) is an airline based in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE). It is the Middle East's largest airline, operating scheduled passenger services, with over 2,350 flights each week, to 97 cities in 61 countries on six continents. Emirates also flies the competitive "Kangaroo Route" between Europe and Oceania. Cargo activities are undertaken under the Emirates SkyCargo name. Its main base is Dubai International Airport.
More than 50 per cent of all flight movements in and out of Dubai International Airport are Emirates aircraft. By 2010, that figure is expected to rise to 70 per cent. During the 2006/07 financial year, Emirates carried 17.5 million passengers and 1.2 million tonnes of cargo. Emirates has built up a strong brand, has received many awards, and is an industry bellwether for aircraft purchases, as a trendsetter in terms of service, innovation, and safety. It is the tenth largest airline in Asia and ranked ninth in the world in terms of international passengers carried.
Emirates has become the largest carrier within the Middle East region. By mid-2006, Emirates was serving 18 cities in the Middle East with 175 flights a week. Emirates, which hopes to take delivery of Airbus A380 super jumbos in 2008, also invested Dh73 million to expand its crew training facility at the Emirates Training Centre. In order to serve its expanding operations the airline has been hiring new cabin crew as larger aircraft, like the A380 will need more crew.
The airline has diversified into ground handling, aviation engineering, air catering, and travel tour marketing, and in November 2007 Emirates Hotels and Resorts. Air freight operations are handled by a subsidiary, Emirates SkyCargo, which leased the freighter fleet from Emirates and manages the cargo holds in all Emirates aircraft.
Emirates will have 54 Boeing 777-300ERs by 2011, and 55 Airbus A380's by 2012 making it the single largest aircraft type in fleet. Emirates, with a 70 per cent share of all new Middle Eastern orders for long-haul aircraft, plans to triple its capacity over the next eight years. Emirates receives one to two aircraft every month. During the 2007 financial year Emirates received 13 new aircraft, and is expecting another 23 aircraft during 2008 which includes 4 Airbus A380's upgrading its fleet to well over 135 aircraft by the end of 2008.
The airline was established on May 25, 1985 by the Dubai government. It started operations with flights to Karachi and Mumbai followed by Delhi in September. A single Airbus A300 and a Boeing 737-300 were leased from Pakistan International Airlines (PIA). Subsequently two Boeing 727-200 Advanced were acquired from the UAE's Royal Flight. These aircraft were used until Emirates began taking delivery of a fleet of newly built Airbus A300-600R and Airbus A310-300 widebodied aircraft.
The first European destination to be added in July 1987 was London Gatwick and Far Eastern operations commenced to Singapore in June 1990. Emirates acquired a financial stake of 40% and a management contract for Air Lanka on 1 April 1998, which subsequently changed its name to SriLankan Airlines. Emirates received the airline of the year award for the first time in 2001 and repeated the feat in 2002. Emirates Airlines is wholly owned by the Government of Dubai and has 20,273 employees.
International Air Transport Association (IATA) statistics indicate that in 2006 Emirates ranked among the top-ten airlines in the world in terms of passengers (17.54 million) carried and kilometers (71.3 million) flown in 2006/2007. The airline carried 14.5 million passengers in 2005/06, 2 million more than the previous year’s 12.5 million. The passenger seat factor increased to 75.9 per cent, up 1.3 percentage points from the previous year, led by an increase in traffic by 20.2 per cent. In the financial year 2005/2006, Emirates carried 14.5 million passengers and one million tonnes of cargo.
