Air Transport World has named Emirates, the Dubai-based carrier, as ‘Airline of the Year’, recognising its strong commitment to safety and operational excellence, its trendsetting customer service and superb financial performance. The airline’s President Tim Clark was honoured by such recognition and saw it as a “testament to our commitment to innovation and service excellence”. Since launching in 1985 the airline has grown into one of the largest and most dynamic airlines in the world, focusing primarily on delivering high standards of product, passenger comfort and operational efficiently, with such dedication resulting in a 22-year consecutive annual profit streak. The airline currently flies to 110 cities in 66 countries across Europe, North America, South America, the Middle East, Africa, the Indian subcontinent and Asia-Pacific and is a leader in developing flexible air routings that save fuel and reduce CO2 emissions.
