Emirates Airline has been crowned as ‘Best Airline Worldwide’ for the ninth consecutive time at the Business Traveller Middle East awards.

At a ceremony attended by key travel industry executives, the airline also swept three other categories, including airline with the "Best Premium Economy Class", "Best Economy Class" and "Best Frequent Flyer Programme".

The awards are a recognition of Emirates’ commitment to delivering on its ‘Fly Better’ promise through multi-billion dollar investments in customer experience initiatives, products and services in the air and on the ground during a year of rebuilding and recovery. 

As part of that strategy, Emirates is rolling out its Premium Economy experience onboard and on the ground on certain routes from August 1, with dedicated check-in at Dubai International Airport, and upgraded amenities, dining and beverage options onboard.
