For pilots, a future with Emirates means flying to diverse destinations across the airline’s network spanning six continents and 140 destinations. It also means flying one of the world’s youngest and most modern fleets, now numbering 265 Airbus and Boeing aircraft.

With Emirates’ continuous investments in renewing its fleet, the airline’s pilots will also be flying Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners, Boeing 777-Xs and Airbus A350-900s in the coming years.

Emirates’ pilots complete robust, evidence-based training in-house with highly skilled instructors in specially designed environments. The airline’s cutting-edge training facility houses 10 full-flight simulators for Boeing 777s and Airbus 380s.

Emirates has recently increased the daily frequency from Ha Noi (HAN) and six flights per week from HCM City (SGN) to its destination network in Europe and the US, making it more convenient and flexible for travellers in Viet Nam to select suitable flights for their vacations. — VNS
