Emirates has partnered with the NBA to host a youth basketball clinic in Paris, focusing on social and professional integration for young people from disadvantaged neighborhoods through sports. Participants had the chance to engage with Jr. NBA coaches, partake in friendly games, and capture memorable photos.

The airline, as the Official Airline Partner and Title Partner of the Emirates NBA Cup, aims to connect fans with basketball via community initiatives and unique experiences. This partnership underscores Emirates' dedication to uniting people through sports.

In addition, Emirates welcomed NBA Legend Tony Parker at its newly opened Travel Store in Paris earlier this week. Guests had the opportunity to meet Parker and receive signed merchandise.

Basketball enthusiasts experienced an engaging atmosphere at the NBA House in Carreau du Temple, featuring live entertainment, photo opportunities, merchandise giveaways, and a playground area for fan-player interactions. Attendees also participated in the 'Around the World Challenge' at the Emirates booth for a chance to win an authentic Emirates Wilson ball.

Emirates has been serving France for over three decades. The airline operates 21 weekly flights to Paris, including three daily A380 flights; a daily A380 service to Nice; and a daily flight to Lyon using Boeing 777 aircraft (upgraded to a daily A350 service starting June 2025).
