DUBAI, UAE: The Dubai-based Emirates and the national airline of Maldives Maldivian have established an interline partnership, enabling Emirates customers to access 16 popular holiday destinations in the Maldives beyond Malé.
The agreement successfully follows on from last year’s Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the two airlines, to explore opportunities for mutual cooperation.
Separately, Emirates has announced its sponsorship of the 37th America’s Cup as Global Partner and Official Airline of the 150-year-old sailing race and the oldest trophy in international sport, as well as the series of preliminary regattas leading up to the Challenger Selection Series.
The agreement takes the combination of event and team sponsorship to new heights the second time for Emirates.
The airline sponsored the 36th edition of the America’s Cup in Auckland, as well as Emirates Team New Zealand in 2021.
Emirates recently renewed its naming rights with reigning America’s Cup champions, Emirates Team New Zealand.
