2025 Review: The 10 Most Significant Achievements of Emirates

In 2025, Emirates carried 55.6 million passengers, covered distances equivalent to 29,290 laps around the Earth through nearly 180,580 flights, and placed orders for 73 new aircraft. The airline celebrated its 40th anniversary in October, but the real story of 2025 goes beyond this milestone, as Emirates continues to shape the future of aviation and the ‘Fly Better’ experience. Key achievements include the launch of the first Emirates A350, expansion into new Asian markets (Shenzhen, Hangzhou, Da Nang, Siem Reap), and the rollout of Premium Economy cabins to nearly 40% of the fleet. The installation of Starlink Wi-Fi on 232 aircraft will provide ultra-fast connectivity to passengers starting in early 2026. Emirates also continued to invest in sports, technology, and sustainability, while enhancing its services for passengers and partners.
