On 25th October 1985, Emirates flew its first routes out of Dubai with just two aircraft—a leased Boeing 737 and an Airbus 300 B4. Emirates goal was quality, not quantity, and in the years since taking those first small steps onto the regional travel scene, Emirates has evolved into a globally influential travel and tourism conglomerate known the world over for our commitment to the highest standards of quality in every aspect of our business. Though wholly owned by the Government of Dubai, Emirates has grown in scale and stature not through protectionism but through competition—competition with the ever-growing number of international carriers that take advantage of Dubai’s open-skies policy. Continuing on explosive growth while continually striving to provide the best service in the industry is the secret of Emirates’ success. The airline’s business includes: An award-winning international cargo division
A full-fledged destination management and leisure division
An airline IT developer.

Emirates primarily concentrates on long-haul to long-haul traffic flows transferring long-haul traffic between Europe, Asia, India and Australia via its Middle East hub. Like Swiss and KLM, Emirates does not have a natural catchment area to underpin traffic volumes so it is forced to develop a strong network of connecting services to underpin growth. Emirates capitalizes on its hub’s unique geographical position, as it is perfectly located, being equidistant between Europe’s northern hemisphere and Asia’s southern hemisphere. Fleet
The fleet of Emirates consists mainly of wide-bodied aircraft, including the Airbus A330, Airbus A340, Airbus A380 and Boeing 777, as well as Boeing 747-400 freighters operated by Emirates SkyCargo. The only narrow-body aircraft is an Airbus A319CJ which is being operated by Emirates Executive charters. In keeping with its policy of maintaining a young fleet, which stands at an average of 6.4 years as of November 2013,[1] the airline renews its fleet frequently. Emirates’ aircraft utilisation remained one of the highest in the industry at 13.7 hours per day. EMIRATES AIRCRAFTS
