Held for the first time in Dubai, Emirates was the only airline to have achieved commendations three years in a row.
The Emirates team took gold awards in three main categories: Fleet Safety Award, Health and Safety Award, and Leisure Safety Award.
The team also added the coveted Health and Safety – Team of the Year (Middle East) to its tally, for the second time in three years.
In the UAE, Emirates operates a fleet of over a thousand vehicles to transport its first and business class passengers.
The airline also transports cabin crew and flight deck as well as other employees to and from the workplace, averaging 2.5 million road trips in a normal year.
It also transports premium customers to and from the airport in comfort and safety as part of its signature Emirates Chauffeur Drive service.
There is also a dedicated state-of-the-art shuttle service for cabin crew from their accommodation to the airport.
Emirates’ pilots are chauffeur-driven between their home and the airport for their flight duties. Ground staff for both Emirates and dnata are also ferried to and from work.
