“At Emirates, we are always in pursuit of excellence and are constantly seeking to ways to deliver the finest product when it comes to hospitality. Food and beverage are at the core,” said Robin Padgett, Emirates Divisional Vice President, Catering.

We believe that it is these high standards that keep our loyal customers coming back.

“Emirates has been singled out by the road warrior readers of Frequent Business Traveler for the best Airline Food and Wine,” said Jonathan Spira, Editorial Director of Frequent Business Traveler. “Our readers’ very selective preferences combined with their extensive patronage of hotels, airlines, and everything travel-related make their votes particularly meaningful.”
