Emirates' flagship A380s and its award-winning entertainment system were also mentioned as contributing factors to the airline's success. The airline has previously secured the same title in 2023 and was named the "World's Best Airline" in 2024.
In addition to the Telegraph Travel Awards, Emirates has also been named "2025's Most Recommended Global Brand" by YouGov. This win also reflects Emirates' commitment to innovation, further solidifying its position as a leading global brand.
