A Look at Emirates’ 50th Anniversary Special Livery

Tuesday 17th of August 2021

Emirates has been boldly marking the Golden Jubilee of United Arab Emirates and yesterday, the airlines has unveiled special liveries on its Airbus A380s and Boeing 777-300ERs commemorating the occasion.

The airline prides in being a part of the nation’s journey and playing a pivotal role in the region’s success over the years. Flying the nation’s flag around the world, the ambitious airline carries this pride in its inspiring stories across the globe. In a short span of time, UAE has successfully established itself as a strong and resilient force, and set world-class standards in the global aviation industry.

‘Emirates’ on the original livery completes the UAE’s name in the new design which is a bespoke depiction of the Emirates’ home and hub. Vibrant characteristics and accomplishments of the past half-century achieved by the UAE are demonstrated in continuous swirls and curves incorporated into the design. The new 50th themed decals wrap both sides of the aircraft in Arabic and English language. The graceful silhouettes are dynamic yet graceful, illustrating the layers of the country’s storied history. UAE is the epitome of pushing boundaries of what’s possible, guided by a visionary leadership. The official ‘Year of the Fiftieth’ logo is encircled in the ‘0’ of the ‘50’ as well.

“The next 50 years will continue to be driven by the same ambitious spirit to build a better and sustainable future for humanity, and the UAE will lead the charge as it evolves its national capabilities, champions innovation, and strengthens its position as a progressive world leader across a spectrum of areas.” commented His Highness Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman and Chief Executive, Emirates Airline & Group.

The debut flight of the ‘United Arab Emirates 50’ anniversary livery, A6EVG was to Frankfurt earlier this week. In the upcoming week, more aircrafts will be emblazoned with the special 50th livery. The decorated liveries will fly across the Emirates network, and will be visiting Los Angeles, London, Washington D.C, New York, Munich, Zurich, and Paris, among other cities in the next few weeks, helping spread the UAE’s Golden Jubilee messages around the globe.
