Emirates has once again secured its position as a leading airline by winning several prestigious awards at the 2024 World Travel Awards and World Travel Tech Awards. The airline was honored with titles such as ‘World’s Leading Airline - First Class,’ ‘World’s Leading Airline - Brand,’ ‘World’s Leading Airline - Inflight Entertainment,’ and ‘World’s Leading Airline - Rewards Programme.’ Additionally, Emirates was recognized for having the ‘Best Airline App Worldwide’ and the ‘Best Airline App in the Middle East.’

The ceremony took place at the Savoy Palace in Madeira, Portugal, where David Quito, Emirates’ Country Manager in Portugal, accepted the awards on behalf of the airline.
