Emirates has been named the Global Most Recommended Brand of 2025 by YouGov, solidifying its position as a benchmark for excellence and customer experience. With a score of 88.4%, the airline not only leads the ranking but is also the only carrier featured in the global top 10.
Rigorous Evaluation Method and Global Coverage
YouGov’s rankings are based on the proportion of customers who would recommend a brand to friends or colleagues. The scores are derived from over one million surveys across 28 markets, conducted daily between June 1, 2024, and May 31, 2025. The results are adjusted according to the size of each brand’s customer base in different markets.
Emirates’ Vision: Evolving Without Losing Focus on the Customer
Sir Tim Clark, President of Emirates Airline, commented: “This recognition highlights the deep connection and loyalty we’ve built with passengers worldwide, who trust us not only to take them to their destination but to do so with care, reliability, and excellence.” He also reaffirmed the company’s commitment to raising the bar in travel experiences.
