Soaring into a Silver Jubilee: Emirates Skywards Celebrates 25 Years of Loyalty Excellence on…….
Dubai, UAE – Emirates Skywards, the award-winning loyalty programme of Emirates and flydubai, is proudly celebrating a monumental milestone — 25 years of redefining the travel rewards experience. Since its launch in 2000, Skywards has grown to become one of the most recognized and innovative loyalty programmes in the aviation industry, boasting over 37 million members across more than 180 countries.
To mark its Silver Jubilee, Emirates has unveiled an array of celebratory initiatives that reflect the programme’s journey, its global footprint, and its unwavering commitment to its members. Among the most eye-catching tributes to the milestone is the announcement of a bespoke aircraft livery, specially designed to commemorate the occasion.
A Global Tribute: The ’25 Years’ Aircraft Livery
Beginning next month, a newly designed Emirates aircraft featuring a distinctive “25 Years” Skywards livery will begin its journey across the globe. The bespoke design pays homage to the loyalty and passion of millions of Skywards members who have been part of the programme’s growth over the last quarter-century. This aircraft will serve as a flying ambassador for Skywards’ achievements, touching down in major cities across six continents and reminding travellers worldwide of the programme’s legacy and continued innovation.
The livery will feature a sleek silver motif symbolizing the Silver Jubilee, combined with dynamic lines and elements that reflect the spirit of travel, connection, and reward.
25 Days of Generous Giveaways
To further celebrate the occasion, Emirates Skywards is rolling out a 25-day campaign of giveaways, designed to reward its members with exclusive prizes and once-in-a-lifetime experiences. This global celebration promises something for everyone — from bonus Miles and cabin upgrades to luxury hotel stays, tickets to global sporting events, and exclusive access to world-class experiences.
The campaign reflects the core mission of Emirates Skywards: to deliver exceptional value and memorable experiences to its members, both in the air and on the ground. Loyal customers can expect daily surprises, flash deals, and curated rewards tailored to different markets and member tiers.
A Legacy of Innovation and Excellence
Since its inception, Emirates Skywards has continuously evolved to meet the changing needs of today’s travellers. What began as a simple frequent flyer programme has transformed into a lifestyle rewards ecosystem, offering members the ability to earn and spend Miles across a wide range of partners including airlines, hotels, car rentals, retail, and entertainment.
In recent years, Skywards has earned numerous accolades for its innovative approach to customer engagement. The programme has been recognised with multiple global awards, including ‘Best Frequent Flyer Programme’ and ‘Most Innovative Loyalty Programme’, underscoring its leadership in the loyalty space.
With strategic integration between Emirates and flydubai, members now enjoy even greater earning and redemption opportunities across both carriers, making it easier to access rewards and benefits whether travelling for business or leisure.
Looking Ahead: A Future Built on Loyalty
As Emirates Skywards celebrates its 25th anniversary, the airline is reaffirming its commitment to pushing the boundaries of loyalty innovation. Future plans include the expansion of partnerships, enhanced digital experiences, and more personalised member journeys, all designed to deliver even greater value.
“The success of Emirates Skywards over the last 25 years is a testament to the loyalty and trust of our members,” said Dr. Nejib Ben Khedher, Divisional Senior Vice President of Emirates Skywards. “We are proud to celebrate this milestone with them and look forward to continuing this journey together into the future.”
