Emirates, the world’s largest international airline, is celebrating 35 years of operations in Singapore, having transported over 10 million passengers between Singapore and Dubai since 1990. The airline, which began with a single daily flight, now operates four daily flights, making it a popular choice for travellers heading to destinations such as London, Paris, and Rome via Dubai. In the past year alone, over 800,000 passengers have flown between the two hubs.
The airline’s commitment to Singapore is evident in its recent initiatives, including the introduction of the Premium Economy cabin on the Singapore-Dubai route in June 2023. This cabin, offering enhanced comfort and space, has been well-received, with over 87,000 passengers choosing this option. Emirates’ Premium Economy has also garnered accolades, winning ‘Best Premium Economy Class’ at the 2024 Business Traveller Asia-Pacific Awards.
In addition to passenger services, Emirates plays a crucial role in cargo transport, moving an average of 300 tonnes weekly between Singapore and Dubai. The airline’s cargo includes pharmaceuticals, valuables, and fresh produce, highlighting the strong trade relationship between the two regions.
To commemorate its 35th anniversary, Emirates is offering special fares on bookings made until 30 June 2025, for travel through 30 November 2025. This gesture of appreciation underscores Emirates’ long-standing relationship with Singapore and its commitment to providing world-class service.
