Emirates Commits to A380 Fleet Through Next Decade
Emirates has confirmed plans to operate its fleet of Airbus A380 double-decker aircraft until the close of the 2030s, signalling a strategic decision to extend the service life of the very planes that propelled the airline to global prominence. The Dubai-based carrier intends to introduce one final upgrade to the A380's first-class cabins as part of its commitment to maintaining the aircraft's appeal and competitive edge on long-haul international routes. Airline President Tim Clark announced the decision at an aviation forum in New Delhi, emphasising that the A380 remains central to Emirates' operational strategy despite industry-wide trends shifting towards smaller, more fuel-efficient aircraft. This move bucks the broader industry trend where many carriers have either retired or significantly downsized their A380 fleets, citing high operational costs and changing market dynamics. Emirates' confidence in the A380 is underpinned by the aircraft's unique ability to accommodate high-density passenger loads while offering spacious cabins, including private suites in first class, shower spas, and extensive onboard amenities. The airline's distinctive approach to luxury air travel helped establish the A380 as a symbol of prestige and comfort, especially on long-haul routes connecting Dubai with major cities across Europe, Asia, and North America. ADVERTISEMENT Tim Clark outlined that the impending first-class refurbishment will focus on modernising the interiors with the latest technology and design enhancements to meet evolving customer expectations. The upgrade is expected to feature improved seating, entertainment systems, and bespoke services designed to maintain Emirates' reputation as a leader in premium air travel. While other carriers such as Lufthansa and Qantas have already begun phasing out their A380s due to rising fuel costs and the impact of fluctuating demand, Emirates' approach reflects its unique market positioning. Dubai's role as a global transit hub and Emirates' extensive network allows the airline to exploit the A380's size and range more efficiently than many competitors. Despite criticism of the A380 for its fuel consumption relative to newer twin-engine aircraft, Emirates has invested in operational efficiencies and weight reduction measures to enhance fuel economy. The airline has also integrated the A380 into its fleet renewal plan alongside newer models like the Boeing 787 and Airbus A350, balancing capacity and flexibility. The A380 programme itself has faced challenges over the years, including Airbus' announcement that production would cease by 2021, owing to weak orders from airlines worldwide. However, Emirates remains the largest operator by far, with more than 100 of the aircraft in service, and this latest commitment underscores its continued confidence in the superjumbo's commercial viability. Industry analysts note that Emirates' decision to keep the A380 in operation through the end of the decade will influence global airline fleet strategies. The airline's deep integration of the A380 into its hub-and-spoke model, combined with strong passenger demand on key routes, enables it to leverage the aircraft's capacity more effectively than airlines with less concentrated traffic flows. ADVERTISEMENT Dubai's infrastructure also supports the operation of the A380 with terminals specifically designed to handle the aircraft's size and passenger volume. This unique advantage reinforces Emirates' competitive position in the international aviation market. As Emirates prepares to roll out the cabin upgrades, attention will focus on how these enhancements improve the passenger experience and whether they set a new standard for luxury air travel on large aircraft. The move comes amid heightened competition in premium cabins from carriers in the Middle East and Asia, prompting Emirates to maintain its leading edge through innovation and quality service. The airline's commitment to the A380 is also a testament to its broader strategy of sustaining flagship products that reinforce brand loyalty. This approach contrasts with many airlines that have opted for rapid fleet renewal or downsizing amid pressures to reduce carbon emissions and adapt to fluctuating travel demand. While environmental concerns continue to shape aviation's future, Emirates' operational measures and investment in sustainable aviation fuels may mitigate the environmental impact of keeping the A380 flying for another decade. The airline has announced pilot projects and partnerships aimed at reducing its carbon footprint, a priority that will remain critical as global regulators increase pressure on emissions standards. Emirates' president has articulated a long-term vision for the airline that balances innovation, passenger comfort, and operational pragmatism. The A380 will remain a cornerstone of this vision, reflecting a blend of engineering excellence and market strategy that few other aircraft have achieved. Maintaining the A380 fleet through the 2030s may also offer Emirates financial advantages, avoiding the massive capital expenditure required for immediate large-scale fleet replacements. With planned upgrades, the airline can continue to attract premium travellers who value space, comfort, and exclusivity, distinguishing Emirates from competitors focusing on smaller, more utilitarian aircraft.

How I got my job as… Founder of this UAE-based resortwear label
This week, we speak to Lucy Redfern, Founder of the UAE-based fashion label Scorpio Rizing. Welcome to the Emirates Woman weekly series 'How I got my job as…' where we speak to some incredible entrepreneurs and businesswomen both based in the UAE and globally to find out about their career paths that led them to where they are now; what their daily routines look like; the advice they'd give to those starting out; and the hurdles they've had to overcome. It's in a Scorpio's nature to be passionate about their art, and at Scorpio Rizing, the brand embodies this. All products are designed and made in the UAE, where designs will be launched in exclusive collections to advocate sustainability and will feature around stand out pieces. With resortwear pieces taking centre stage, these piece are exactly what you need to pack for your next holiday. To delve into her journey as a creative lead and founder, Emirates Woman spoke to Redfern to see how it began for her in the fashion world. What was your favourite subject at school? My favourite subject was History, right from an early age I had a huge interest in the history of the world from the Ancient Greeks up to the Tudors. My grandmother was a history and Latin teacher so she would teach me both subjects on a weekend as a child. Our house was full of old history books that my grandfather picked up as he travelled the world after he served in the Gurkhas during WW2 and subsequently then after for his work. I also loved English Literature, I am a very creative person who doesn't have the ability to draw, so English Literature allowed me to be creative through writing. What was your first job? I got my first job working in a perfume shop in a shopping centre in Yorkshire, England (where I was born and raised) on my 16th birthday. I would get my weekly salary and then go straight into the stores to spend it. I have always been obsessed with clothes. What brought you to Dubai? I was working as fashion buyer for a fast fashion company in Manchester, England when I was contacted by a recruiter for an opening at the e-commerce brant that is Namshi. I had never even been to Dubai before, but 4 weeks later I was packing my bags and saying goodbye to my family, ready to move to Dubai. I remember being amazed as I drove down SZR for the first time ever after leaving the airport. I owe alot to Namshi, not only were they responsible for me moving to Dubai, but I gained so much valuable experience from them that absolutely helped me start my own business. What inspired you to enter the space and launch your brand? I had been a fashion buyer for 10 years and always had the dream of having my own brand but I really had no idea where to start. I have always been told that I have a 'good eye' for fashion and I could pick on and source pieces/prints/trends that nobody else would see, so I always knew that I wanted to channel this into something of my own, something that didn't necessarily have the restrictions that can come from buying for a large company. Then in 2022, my best friend suddenly passed away and it made me realize that life really is too short not to chase your dreams and that Dubai was really missing a 'cool girl' brand. So after some hesitation, and alot of doubt, one of my closest friends Elle (who owns Posture Pilates Studio), finally gave me the pep talk I needed to get up and go for it, and Scorpio Rizing was officially born. Talk us through the concept? I always knew that if I started a brand, it would be called Scorpio Rizing (as I am, of course, a Scorpio rising!). I have always been into fashion, right from a young age as my mum would make a lot of my clothes for me (she too has a great eye!) and my interest in history from a young age also lead me to explore things such as astrology as I would read about this and spirituality in many of the old, worldly books we had at home. I always had a vision of combining fashion with astrology. I ultimately want women to wear the pieces and to know that she stands out because of her femininity. We avoid any sort of mainstream trend and design pieces which are eye catching and original but can be worn again and again. I very much position the brand as a part of the 'slow fashion' movement, meaning that we limit consumption by releasing limited collections each year. What are the key elements of your role? As well as being the owner of Scorpio Rizing – I am also the social media manager, customer service manager, and occasional logistics and finance manager! I am heavily involved in all aspects of the business as we grow but mainly I focus on the creative direction of the brand by creating moodboards and design ideas which I then share with my incredible designer who will then takes care of the actual sketching/CAD'ing process.. I also oversee all content and creative shoots as well as managing the day-to-day communication with my suppliers and fulfilment partners to ensure everything runs smoothly and on time. I do however hire people for the design and digital marketing side of the business. Talk us through your daily routine. I am an early riser so this means starting emails at 6am, I will respond to any customer service enquiries at this time. I then check over all orders received the day before to ensure our fulfilment centers in the UAE and UK have packed and shipped on time. I then start one of my favorite parts of the job which is checking the daily analytics of the store, which countries are people looking at the website from (it blows my mind that people all around the world know about Scorpio Rizing!), have we acquired new customers, what product are people buying/looking at the most etc. Then I will work on social media posts and ensure these are scheduled through the week (I'm really trying to build TikTok so try and document what I can but I keep forgetting!). I have regular catch ups with the wonderful freelancer, Beth, who manages all my digital marketing as I will approve all ad and email messaging as well as analysing the performance of our paid ads. I also have regular calls with my suppliers to ensure there are no issues or delays – they will regularly send me samples and fabrics to fit and approve as well (the average time from design to going online is around 8 months as I like to make sure everything is done to a high standard and as we are a 'slow fashion' brand, we don't rush the process). And then we have the general admin side of the business. What advice do you have for anyone looking to follow in the same footsteps? Be passionate. Many people say they want to start a business or a brand but they don't know what business or what space they want to be in – I think if you don't already have that business/niche idea in your head, then you're not passionate enough to get started. Also ensure you do your research on suppliers, logistics, and the tech and AI needed to go into building a website. Make sure you have a target audience in mind and design everything for them. I always knew I wanted to capture the 'cool girl' who spends summers in Ibiza and winters in Dubai (with a little bit of Thailand and Bali thrown in!) so I build my branding to appeal to them. Tell us more about the pieces? Our pieces are limited, meaning we only initially buy 50-80 pieces per style and then repeat what works well (our Orange Tie Dye Soleil Maxi Skirt has been a best seller since day 1 so we always try to keep this in stock). I always start the design process by thinking 'where is the Scorpio Rizing girl going this summer?' and then I design based on that. Last summer it was the South of France, the summer before that when we launched was Coachella and this summer it is a full Euro Summer vibe! Each piece is designed with feminine fits (think backless, fishtail hems, flared sleeves) and stand out prints. We have released our first ever few pieces of swimwear this season and it has been amazing to see the reaction to this (pre-sales were crazy!). Our newest collection 'Celestial Waves' is really inspired by the magical island of Ibiza and the beautiful crystal waters that surround it. We develop our pieces using left over plain fabric which we then dye to our specific print, meaning we keep consumption as low as possible. What is the best piece of advice you have ever received? ALWAYS TRUST YOUR GUT INSTINCT. Nobody knows your vision and goals like you do, so if you feel that something isn't aligning with them, remove it. I have had a few instances where external parties have tried to strong arm me into things that haven't felt right, so I have always followed my gut. Also a few occasions where I have felt that a particular style wasn't perhaps right and they have ended up being my worst sellers. Your instinct is a very powerful thing. And what is the worst? 'That's life' – my wonderful mum said this to me after I once complained that I didn't want to work a corporate job for the rest of my life! That isn't life for me, life for me is building something of your own that gives you freedom. I love my mum more than anything, but she was wrong just this once. What's the biggest challenge you have had to overcome? It has been my own mindset when things haven't gone to plan or I've faced setbacks. As a Scorpio, we do have the tendency to be maybe just a little overdramatic sometimes, so when I have faced setbacks I have initially seen this as the end or a sign to give up, but each time I have persevered and always pulled through to resolve the issue at hand. What's lies ahead for the brand? Growth! We have some exciting partnerships coming up with 3rd party e-commerce platforms, we are already partnered with Wolf and Badger and Silk Fred in the UK and are now expanding with our UAE partnerships which is so exciting. On top of this we are also strengthening our D2C (Direct to Consumer) business through our website by really improving the functionalities. Due my experience in e-commerce, I have been able to build really strong foundations which will support growth. I am also attempting to build a TikTok audience (when I find time to document everything) on top of growing our overall social presence through Instagram. And as always, designing really great pieces with a big focus on strong creatives. – For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and Instagram Images: Supplied & Feature Image: Instagram @scorpiorizing
