Emirates, one of the fastest growing airlines in the world, celebrated a double success at the World Travel Awards in Delhi when emirates.com was named ‘World’s Leading Airline Website’ and Skywards, Emirates’ frequent flyer program, was voted ‘World’s Leading Airline Rewards Program’.
The World Travel Awards have been running since 1994 and the categories are voted for by members of the global travel trade and the general public. Emirates beat a strong field of competition from across the globe to win these two categories.
