*Brief Intro & History

The airline is a subsidiary of The Emirates Group, which is wholly owned by the government of Dubai's Investment Corporation of Dubai.[3] It is the largest airline in the Middle East, operating over 3,600 flights per week from its hub at Dubai International Airport, to more than 140 cities in 81 countries across six continents.

Growth Since It`s Formation
Airline which was founded as a result of reduction in Gulf Airway`s routes has grown exceptionally, It`s always placing order`s for new & better aircrafts ,The airline signed contracts for 120 Airbus A350s, 150 Boeing 777X ,50 Airbus A380 aircraft
and many more are on the order`s.
Right from it`s formation it`s never experienced any loses with a miimum 21% profit everyear , last years profit stand`s at around a whopping 61% , the airline is just on profit spree.
Emirates also faces competition from other UAE-based airlines, Etihad Airways of Abu Dhabi and the low-budget Air Arabia of Sharjah,[166] as well as Qatar Airways of Qatar.
The Year 2000 was a very spectacular year for Emirtaes it placed it`s order for the 15 Airbus A380`s and also 25 777`s and in that same year Emirates launched its Skyward`s programme , it didn`t join the Star alliance and all and created one loyality programme for itself the only of this programme is to get points when you fly Emirates unlilke Star alliance where you much more benefit`s , but as its said something is always better than nothing.
Whatever we may say , but all of emirate`s move have led them to this huge profit`s and it`s no surprise as eventhough emirtaes is government run but it`s been run by professional`s in that field and not politician`s unlike some airline`s if you want to know what I am talking here than go and watch my Air India video to learn more about this.
Accidents and incidents-
Only 3 incident`s have taken place in it`s 30+ operating period & only one of them Ek- 521 from Triv to Dubai in which the aircraft crash landed at the runway, was severe enough in which one firefighter lost his life trying to calm the blaze, it`s been a very safe airline and hardly had any major issues in it`s operating history.
The other 2 weren't that major and no one was hurt either.
Closing Thought`s
Emirates has been 1 intesting airline and with it`s buisennes module and the way the airline function`s has always kept many other rival`s envious of it , and if it continuous to do so than in no time it will reach to all part`s of the world but also come out as the best.
