Fly Emirates對體育的贊助和推動可是不遺余力~~ Marketing Emirates is a big global sponsor of sports clubs and events, both at its home base and in the main overseas markets it serves. It also sponsors the annual "Dubai Shopping Festival". As the airline lacks a "ready-made" clientele in its almost non-existent home market, this type of corporate sponsorship is its most effective marketing tool. Perhaps unsurprisingly, for Emirates marketing expenses account for a far greater share of its total costs than for most of its competitors.[3] In the English-speaking world the sponsorship always carries the words "Fly Emirates".
At present the company provides the following sponsorships:
