Emirates added another accolade to its trophy collection recently, winning the Best Middle East/African Airline award from Business Traveller Asia-Pacific for the second time running.

The Business Traveller Asia-Pacific 2005 Annual Travel Awards event was held recently in Hong Kong, attended by top executives from international airlines and Tung Chee Hwa, former Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) and patron of Save the Children Hong Kong.

Emirates' Senior Vice President Commercial Operations - East Asia and Australasia, Richard Vaughan said: "We are delighted to win this award, a vote of confidence from business travellers and our customers in the Asia-Pacific region, for our continuous drive to deliver high-quality service across all our customer touch points.

"We are particularly proud of our inflight services delivered by cabin crew drawn from over 100 nationalities, cuisine designed by international chefs and unbeatable information and entertainment facilities. Going forward, we intend to increase and strengthen our route network in the Far East, offering our passengers even more convenient travel options.

Expect more from Emirates." The airline serves 10 destinations in the Far East and six destinations in Australia and New Zealand.

The East Asia and Australasia region was responsible for 27.8 per cent of the airline's revenue in the financial year 2004-05, underlining its significance to Emirates' business.
