Adel Al Redha, Chief Operating Officer for Emirates Airline, received the awards at a ceremony held last night in Dubai at the Emerald Palace Kempinski Hotel.

The two awards are a recognition of the airlines consistent delivery of trendsetting travel products and services across its fleet and network.

In April 2019, Emirates completed its US $150 million refurbishment of 10 Boeing 777-200LR aircraft, offering a two-class cabin with wider Business Class seats in a 2-2-2 format and a fully refreshed Economy Class cabin in new colourscapes and enhanced designs.

The airline boosted its in-flight entertainment selection, and now provides customers with an unmatched selection of 4,500 channels of on demand entertainment. In 2019, Emirates also introduced playlist synching, a way for customers to browse the extensive content on offer, create personalised playlists based on their preferences ahead of their flight, and sync it to their seats once on board, using the Emirates App.

Throughout 2020, the airline plans to expand playlist synching progressively across its entire fleet due to popular demand.
