Emirates leads ULTRAs 2024 Awards as 'Best Airline in World'

Emirates has won the “Best Airline in the World” at the ULTRAs 2024 Awards. The airline was recognised by thousands of global travellers for its exceptional products, innovative services and superb value-for-money experiences on offer.

Emirates’ “fly better” travel experiences have also been recognised by more than 20 awards this year, including “World Best Airline” by Telegraph Travel, ranking first amongst 90 global carriers, and “Best Airline” by The Times and Sunday Times Travel Awards.

The ULTRAs are amongst the most respected awards in the industry, and they recognise travel leaders in multiple categories, with winners determined from the votes of a global network of active and affluent travellers.

The award was accepted by Thierry Aucoc, Emirates Senior Vice President of Commercial Operations in Europe and the Americas, and Jabr Al-Azeeby, Emirates Divisional Vice President in the UK, at a ceremony held last week at Kensington Palace in London. The event was attended by leading members of the travel industry and other notable guests.

Sir Tim Clark, President of Emirates Airline, said, “We’re delighted to be recognised as ‘Best Airline in the World’ by the prestigious ULTRAs. Our investments in product and services, in our people, training and technology, all aim to elevate the travel experience at every step of the journey so our customers truly ‘fly better’, and we’ll always work hard to raise the bar for them.

Our multi-billion dollar nose-to-tail refurbishment programme will see over 200 aircraft receive fully refreshed interiors that will take the Emirates experience to even greater heights. Thank you to our loyal customers, and we’ll keep moving forward at pace to offer the very best in international air travel.”
