Visitors to the 2025 Paris Airshow can explore Emirates' upgraded Business Class and Premium Economy cabins, as well as its Economy Class. Sir Tim Clark, President of Emirates Airline, stated: "We’re pleased to be at the Paris Airshow, showcasing the very best of air travel on one of the most important platforms in the aerospace exhibition calendar. Coming back to France's most important aerospace show demonstrates how committed Emirates is to supporting the country's aviation industry - not just through our day-to-day operations, but through ongoing investments across the entire aerospace supply chain."

Emirates serves Paris with 21 weekly flights, including three daily A380 flights, a daily A380 service to Nice, and a daily A350 flight to Lyon. It is noted that Emirates is currently the only international airline operating an A380 at Nice Côte d'Azur Airport.

For over 30 years, Emirates has contributed significantly to France's aviation sector and facilitated trade and tourism. The airline’s investment in France includes substantial purchases of Airbus aircraft such as the A300, A310, A330, A340-300, A340-500, A380 and A350 models. These purchases have supported thousands of jobs at Airbus and other companies like Safran and Thales.
