history

Emirates Boeing 727-200 in 1991

Emirates Airbus A310-300 in 2005

Established in 1985

Emirates was founded in May 1985 by the government in the emirate of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates and initially became a direct competitor to Gulf Air , in which the emirate of Abu Dhabi participated. Emirates began operations on October 25, 1985 with the addition of flights to Mumbai , New Delhi and Karachi . The aircraft used were Boeing 727-200s from the Air Force. This was followed by the use of leased Airbus A300B4 from Pakistan International Airlines . They continued to be used until the first Airbus A310-300s were commissioned on July 1, 1987.

The route network was extended to Europe in June 1987 - initially only London-Gatwick .

1990s

From June 1990, the Far East with the destinations Bangkok , Manila and Singapore was also served .

In the early 1990s, Emirates was one of the fastest growing airlines in the world. In 1993, 1.6 million passengers and 68,000 tons of cargo were carried. The second Gulf War did nothing to change that, Emirates continued to operate flights in the Middle East despite the hostilities. From autumn 1993 the network continued to grow after agreements with Cyprus Airways and US Airways were concluded.

As of April 1, 1995, the fleet consisted of two Boeing 727-200s, ten Airbus A310s and six A300s with 37 destinations in 30 countries. From 1996 onwards, seven Boeing 777-200s joined the fleet, which meant that Emirates was able to develop destinations in Australia in particular.

On April 1, 1998, Emirates signed an agreement with the government of Sri Lanka to manage Air Lanka , which has been operating under the name SriLankan Airlines since 1999 . The ten-year contract was not renewed by Emirates and thus ended in April 2008. The shares of Emirates with a value of 150 million US dollars at the time then became the property of the government of Sri Lanka.

In 1998, the freight subsidiary Emirates Sky Cargo started up, previously freight had been carried in the passenger planes. The first aircraft for Sky Cargo was a Boeing 747-200F operated on wet lease with Atlas Air .

2000s

Emirates has received the “Airline of the Year” award from Diners Club magazine for three years in a row (2004, 2005, 2006). The basis is the assessment of the readers of the magazine. In 2011 the company won again.

Emirates carried 14.5 million passengers and 1.02 million tons of freight in fiscal year 2005 and had 17,300 employees. At that time, 103 aircraft served 85 destinations in over 54 countries. The airline was able to continue the trend in the 2006/2007 financial year. The number of passengers rose by a further 21 percent. The company employed around 20,273 people.

At the end of March 2005, the first two of 30 Boeing 777-300ERs with an order volume of 9.7 billion US dollars were delivered to the airline. At the Farnborough International Airshow in 2006, Emirates signed a contract for the purchase of ten cargo aircraft of type Boeing 747-8F with an order volume of 3.3 billion US dollars.

Since 2007 it has been allowed to use mobile phones on Emirates planes .

Emirates was one of the first to order the Airbus A380 and, with currently 140 orders, is by far the largest and most important customer for the wide-body jet. The first copy was delivered to Emirates on July 28, 2008 in Hamburg and from August 1, 2008 it flew daily from Dubai to John F. Kennedy International Airport . The delivery was the first handover of an A380 in the Hamburg plant.

The independent low-cost airline Flydubai has been supported by Emirates since it was founded in 2009. There is a cooperation to the extent that some of the destinations currently not served by Emirates are connected to Dubai by Flydubai, including Belgrade .

2010s

Emirates ranked second among the world's most profitable airlines in 2010.

On June 8, 2010, Emirates ordered an additional 32 A380-800s and is expected to own a total of 90 aircraft of the type in 2017. In November 2011, Emirates also ordered 50 long-haul Boeing 777-300ER aircraft with an order volume of 19 billion euros .

Emirates has been flying the A380 to Munich since November 25, 2011 , making it the first foreign company to serve a destination in Germany as planned with this model.

In July 2012, the Australian company Qantas agreed to cooperate with Emirates. This should connect flight destinations such as Frankfurt am Main via Dubai with Sydney and other Australian destinations. After the Australian competition authorities gave the green light for the cooperation on March 27, 2013, initially for five years, the cooperation began on April 1, 2013. As part of this cooperation, Qantas will use Dubai instead of Singapore as a hub for flights between London and Australia, Frankfurt am Main as Qantas' second European destination was set as part of the cooperation with Emirates and left to do so.

The company has been expanding rapidly for years, which is also reflected in the development of the fleet and the route network. Emirates' growth is closely linked to the up-and-coming economic metropolis of Dubai. A large number of passengers use Emirates' connecting flights via Dubai Airport for onward flights to the Far East as well as Australia and New Zealand .

In terms of passenger kilometers, Emirates ranked fifth among the largest airlines in the world after four US companies in 2012 . After FedEx and UPS Airlines , the airfreight division Emirates SkyCargo ranked third among the world's largest cargo airlines in 2012 in terms of tonne kilometers .

On June 11, 2014, Emirates canceled its entire order for 70 Airbus A350s because the machine was too small for the company's further growth. Instead, it ordered 150 aircraft from the Boeing 777X family and acquired purchase rights for 50 more aircraft. Boeing assumes that Emirates will purchase all 200 Boeing 777Xs. In addition, another 52 Airbus A380-800s were ordered with an order volume of approximately 25 billion US dollars . This means that a total of 142 aircraft of this type will be part of the fleet.

In November 2016, Emirates retired the last Airbus A330 and Airbus A340 .

Following a specific terror warning, Emirates refused to allow passengers with Tunisian passports to travel with them in December 2017. Tunisia then withdrew Emirates' landing rights.

On January 18, 2018, Emirates ordered another 36 Airbus A380s. 20 of them as fixed and 16 as an option specified in the contract. With this, Emirates prevented the premature exit of the A380.

On February 14, 2019, Emirates confirmed that they will only take over 14 Airbus A380s by 2021. As a result, Airbus boss Tom Enders announced that the production of the Airbus A380 would be discontinued due to lack of demand. At the same time, Emirates ordered 40 Airbus A330neo and A350-900, which are more attractive to Emirates due to their newer engines.

In September 2019, Emirates announced that it would continue to review its fleet strategy and focus on twin-engine, compact aircraft. The A380 is expected to be decommissioned at Emirates within the next 10-15 years.

Since 2020

Due to the sharp decline in the number of passengers in global aviation due to the Covid-19 pandemic and regulations by the United Arab Emirates, Emirates temporarily suspended its passenger flights on March 25, 2020. Evacuation and cargo flights are also permitted.

Given that the recovery in global air traffic could take a few years, Emirates is considering laying off around 30 percent of the workforce and decommissioning older A380s more quickly.

Emirates Group

Emirates forms the largest part of the conglomerate The Emirates Group , which is owned by the Emirate of Dubai and is led by Chairman Sheikh Ahmad ibn Sa'id Al Maktum and Managing Director Tim Clark.

• Emirates SkyCargo (air freight and logistics)
• Skywards ( frequent flyer program )
• Emirates Engineering (maintenance; can also be used by other airlines)

• Destination & Leisure Management
• Emirates Hotels & Resorts
• EmQuest (IT services & data supplier)

The investigation report came to the conclusion that the incorrect entry of the takeoff weight - 100 tons too low - led to the accident.

• On August 3, 2016 at 12:38 p.m. local time, a Boeing 777-300 ( aircraft registration number A6-EMW ) on Emirates flight 521 from Thiruvananthapuram to Dubai crashed at Dubai Airport . There were a total of 300 people on board; 282 passengers and 18 crew members. All inmates were able to get to safety via emergency slides, but a firefighter was killed during the extinguishing work. The plane burned out completely. The investigating authorities ruled out a technical problem as the reason for the incident.

• On January 7, 2017, a Bombardier Challenger 600 business jet of the German MHS Aviation got caught in the wake of an Airbus A380-861 (flight EK412) of the Emirates over the Arabian Sea near Muscat , Oman . The Challenger pilots lost control of their aircraft, the machine was violently whirled and fell 3,000 meters before it could be brought back under control. During the incident, the Challenger exceeded its limits and had to be written off. Five of the Challenger's nine inmates were injured, two of them seriously.
